West Palm Beach residents have grown accustomed to hurricane season. It isn’t exactly a treat, but they have learned how to best batten down the hatches and get through each hurricane every year. One of the things that residents have learned is that storm panel wingnuts in West Palm Beach are preferable to most other types of hardware. There are some very good reasons why too.
Storm Panel Wingnuts in West Palm Beach Grip Better
Live through a single hurricane and you quickly learn that basic wood screws are not enough to keep storm panels secure over your windows and doors. You need something that is much more secure and will not release a storm panel the minute the winds really pick up. Wingnuts distribute storm forces through their bases and “wings” allowing them to more tightly hold onto a storm panel.
They Prevent Wood Splintering Better
The last thing you want is to have a wood storm panel or the wood frames around your windows damaged by intense hurricane winds. Basic wood screws or nails can be pulled or wrenched from your home if the slightest bit of intense wind gets under the storm panels. If the panels aren’t pulled off the nails or screws completely, the wood splinters in response to the intense forces of nature. The wingnuts do a better job of preventing splintering by remaining on the outside of the storm panels instead of through the panels or on the opposite sides.
