I have to say that I am so impressed and grateful at the same time for the care and the service that I was given from this Company. There was just a small issue with my newer Storm Shutters and with in the time of a phone call to Jeremy And Meredith, the attention was Immediate.. A phone call was made to the gentleman, Francisco, who installed them originally, and he was actually nearby. He was here In such a short time It was just a small thing that needed to be fixed and he took care of it immediately. He even took the time to answer some questions that I had and showed me some more effective ways of maintaining my shutters. They really are at a very high level of professionalism and caring for their customers. I highly recommend this company to everyone. Thank you all at Gator Strong Maggy Bednarz

Expert Hurricane Shutter Service & Maintenance Plans in The Coastal Carolinas
Hurricane shutter service and maintenance plans from Gator Strong keep your shutters ready when a storm threatens the Coastal Carolinas. the Coastal Carolinas sit in a designated Wind-Borne Debris Region under the North Carolina Building Code, where structures must withstand winds of 140 to 150 mph. A shutter that sticks, corrodes, or falls off track in those conditions is not just useless — it puts your home at risk. Our maintenance plans cover inspections, hardware checks, track cleaning, lubrication, and operational testing across all shutter types. We work on homes throughout the county, including coastal properties where salt air accelerates wear on moving parts. Whether you own a primary residence or a rental property, a scheduled plan means your shutters deploy correctly when a storm watch is issued.

Hurricane Shutter Service & Maintenance Plans FAQ
Common questions about hurricane shutter service & maintenance plans in the Coastal Carolinas.
Yes, Gator Strong services existing shutter systems throughout the Coastal Carolinas regardless of where they were originally installed. Our technicians inspect and service all common shutter types.
Annual service is recommended for homes in the Coastal Carolinas due to the coastal salt air environment, which accelerates wear on tracks, hinges, and locking hardware. Properties closer to the water may benefit from more frequent checks.
Each visit covers a full operational test, track and hardware inspection, lubrication of moving parts, and identification of any components that need repair. We document the condition of every shutter on the property.
Properly maintained, code-compliant shutters on all openings can support a wind mitigation inspection, which North Carolina insurers use to calculate wind-related premium credits. Talk to your insurance provider about what documentation they require.
Corroded tracks, seized locking bars, and worn rollers are the most common issues we find on coastal properties in the Coastal Carolinas. Salt air exposure speeds up these problems, especially on shutters that sit unused between storm seasons.
New shutters in the Coastal Carolinas still benefit from annual service because coastal conditions affect hardware regardless of age. Catching small issues early prevents larger repairs later.
