Freedom of design for architects with strength respected by engineers.

Armor Screen provides unmatched design flexibility for protecting facilities of all types. The patented Armor Screen Wind, Rain & Impact Abatement System is a flexible, transparent membrane designed to withstand even the strongest hurricane winds without rupture while deflecting large and small missiles.

The system is constructed of a technologically advanced, lightweight fabric which is 95% solid and 5% porous, allowing visibility and natural light into protected structures while effectively eliminating high winds and driving rain intrusion.

Armor Screen has been load factor tested up to 195 psf (276 mph) and large missile impacted with 5 times the force required by the strict Miami-Dade certification (NOA No. 03-1204.01). You can specify Armor Screen knowing that you meet or exceed code standards no matter what codes you must work under. Structural strength of the building may also be increased.

Applications that are impossible with other products are accomplished with Armor Screen. Shelters, fire-rescue stations, auto dealerships, airports, hospitals, store fronts, lanais and sliding glass doors are easily protected. Since Armor Screen is flexible, it can be adapted to most architectural details.

Armor Screen's removable barriers are secured with unobtrusive, stainless steel anchors into the building structure. A special "earth-anchor" allows our product to be fastened directly into the ground, even through brick pavers.

Armor Screen is lightweight and easy to deploy. It can be put up without tools in a fraction of the time required for other products. Utilize existing staff and eliminate the need to hire outside labor.

Every screen we make is custom-engineered in our own manufacturing facility to ensure we meet your exacting specifications.

• Angled screens: Commonly used for doors or large windows. The deflection spacing is created by the lower hardware being installed away from the bottom of the door, or window. The taller the window, the more give the screens has, and the farther away the screen needs to be.

• Inverted screens: These screens will use the eve of the house to create the proper amount of deflection space. The hardware will be installed into the trusses of the roof using a removable eyebolt and then fasten below the window. These screens are more common for windows and the outside of screened in patios.

• Window screens: The screens are great for bay windows, and atrium windows. This screen will have straps running from the bottom of the screen to the ground. The strap is either secured by removable eyebolts in the concrete or ground anchors installed into the earth.

• Storm bars: When it is not applicable to angle the screens out or invert screens into an eve, storm bars are used to create the proper deflection spacing needed for code. The storm bars are easy to put up and easy to store. Storm bars can be installed vertically or horizontally depending on the situation.

• Flush screens: These screens are used when the window is reassessed enough to create the proper amount of deflection without angles or storm bars. Depending on the situation a flush screen with grommets can be used for a reduced price if a Florida Building code installation will due rather then a Miami-Dade approved install.

• Straight screens: Patios, front entry ways and lanais can all be protected to Miami-Dade code with a straight screen. Furniture, plants, ceiling fans are all protected behind the Armor Screen. Buckles can also be placed on the inside of the screen making it easy to exit through the screens. If necessary, straight screens can be installed with Velcro straps or roll ups to speed up deployment.

• Balcony/Track: Tracks can be placed on the top and bottom of the screen in certain situations, a condo balcony is the perfect situation. The track screens are great for an every day use to create shade, slows down the wind, or to keep out rain.

Advanced Hurricane Solutions will always use removable stainless steel hardware. All of the screens will be individually numbered and a job layout sheet will be given to ease in deployment. The screens are folded and kept in storage bags provided by Advanced Hurricane Solutions. The screens are manufactured with non moving, non corrosive parts that don’t need any maintenance. See our deployment guide for our buckle and strap instructions.
