Frequently Asked Questions

  • WHAT’S THE BEST WAY TO MEASURE MY WINDOWS FOR SHUTTERS?

    We’re proud to provide an estimate via phone or email, but we need some measurements first! Measure the opening of your window or door from the outside of your home, if possible. Provide the width first, and height last—for example, 75”w x 51”h.

  • WHAT IS THE COST OF HURRICANE-RATED SHUTTERS?

    The cost of hurricane shutters is directly related to the amount of protection you need and the grade of the products you’re looking for. You should also consider the peace of mind you’ll receive knowing your property is protected—and the potential reduction to your insurance premium. We will help you determine the best products for your needs, including the most cost-effective installation based on your property needs. Different situations require different strategies, but we have the experience and expertise to get you the right amount of protection for the best price.

  • HOW DO I KNOW IF I HAVE ENOUGH HURRICANE PROTECTION?

    Many homeowners assume they have enough protection, but the reality is that not many actually do. Consider the following questions and give us a call if it’s time to upgrade your property.


    • How long does it take to put up or close your current hurricane shutters, and prepare your property for a hurricane?

    • How old are your hurricane shutters? Do they meet current codes? This may impact your eligibility for an insurance claim.

    • Do your shutters fit, or are you spending valuable time trying to “force” them to fit? Are they easy to put up on your own, or do you need help?

    • Do you have the correct hardware? Is anything missing/damaged?


  • HOW MUCH PROTECTION DO STORM SHUTTERS PROVIDE?

    The most recent standard, ASCE/SEI 7–10, increases the wind-load to 170–175 mph and adds a positive and negative pressure load test as well as an impact test. These new standards are much more stringent to satisfy but provide a demonstrated degree of protection. These are the current standards required for all counties in Florida.

  • DO HURRICANE SHUTTERS REQUIRE ADDITIONAL MAINTENANCE?

    Yes! Whether it’s lubricating or cleaning the tracks, or trimming any nearby trees or shrubs, shutters require regular maintenance which should be done during the off-season—ideally in April or May. You should also give your shutters a light pressure-cleaning every few years.

  • WHEN IS THE BEST TIME OF YEAR TO PURCHASE HURRICANE SHUTTERS?

    Before a hurricane hits! To avoid increased costs and longer wait times, consider purchasing your shutters during the off-season (December–May). You don’t want to be caught in a hurricane without proper protection!

    I am quite impressed with R & D Aluminum Inc.  I needed help with my storm shutters on a recently purchased older home.  R & D was quick to respond and Richard took the time to educate me and explain how everything works and what was needed to keep my shutters properly maintained.  They performed a long overdue maintenance on all our shutters and they now work as they should.  Thank you R & D Aluminum. Job well done!  I will definitely be calling you in the future!

    Very responsive by quickly responding  to my request for metal roof leak repairs by explaining the scope of work, giving me a quote and agreeing on an  appointment date.  Once at my house, they completed the job efficiently.   The very next day, we had heavy rain events and no leaks whatsoever.   A very good experience.

    I found their prices to be very reasonable so I had them put up some storm panels and they also re-screened my patio. This was a week before Irma and they didn't price gouge me. They were very fast, efficient and the job was very well done. I am very pleased with this company. I would use them again in a NY minute.

    The facts about R&D Aluminum... Richard has always been fair priced, on time and reliable. Follow his simple maintenance instructions and accordions will last a lifetime. If you're a slacker, he's available to fix them. Since 2005 Richard has installed accordion shutters 3x on homes and did a patio re-screen.  He responds right away, his work is solid and price is affordable.  Bottom line, R&D for 17 years on different homes/projects and have no plans of changing.  Give him a call, you'll be glad you did.

    Richard was very professional. Him and his assistant came out to measure and give us a quote on replacing our entire patio roof. Within a few weeks it was completed and looks beautiful. Very reasonable price as well. It would have been completed even sooner, but we had to wait for the correct panels to be delivered before they could take down the old roof and replace it with the new one. Once the work actually got started they were able to finish in just a few days.

    Richard’s professionalism was off the charts. I could call him or text him and he would always return my calls or texts promptly. Was even able to help me understand how to coordinate with an electrician as we also want to put up new fans on our new roof.


    Thank you R&D for the great work. Highly recommend.

    Richard was very responsive in a timely manner. The whole experience of doing two accordion shutters was very good one being a sliding door. I was especially happy with the quickness that everything was completed. Very professional company.  I highly recommend R and D.

    R & D Aluminum replaced some of my old heavy steel storm panels with accordion shutters.  The Job was professional and timely.  I appreciate the fact that the company did not require any down payment to do the installation.   The job is well done.

    I will be using R & D again to complete the replacement of the old steel shutters.  I highly recommend R & D Aluminum.

    I have to say I'm impressed with the quality of work and service I was provided by Richard. He was referred by one of my colleagues at work and gotta say I understand why. I had called Richard to get shutters for my home and next day he was doing measurements at home and got me a quote that same day. He perfectly understood what I wanted and even gave me a few options to make it work. He took care of permits with the city and scheduled inspections. He kept me updated with the job status at all time. By the end of his work he made sure the area was cleaned and also took his time to show us how to properly use our shutters and also how to give proper maintenance.  My husband and I are very happy with the completion of this project and will refer Richard in the future.
