Storm panels in Pender County.
Florence taught Pender County — from the Cape Fear lowlands at Rocky Point to the beachfront at Topsail — that storm protection isn't optional. Storm panels are the most economical way to get it done. Wilmington Awning custom-cuts Bertha .050 impact-certified aluminum and clear panels to each of your openings, then mounts permanent headers and sills so panels slide into place fast and stack away flat once the all-clear sounds.

Storm protection, Pender County
Certified protection without the big price tag.
Whether you're protecting a piling home in Topsail Beach, a new build in Hampstead, or a family place outside Burgaw, storm panels deliver certified hurricane protection at a fraction of the cost of permanent shutters. Each panel is cut to fit one specific window or door and slides into pre-mounted headers and sills for a tight, gap-free fit when weather threatens. When it's over, the panels lift out and stack flat in the garage or under the house until next season.
Wilmington Awning offers both non-rust aluminum panels and clear polycarbonate panels. The clear option skips the boarded-up feel entirely — daylight still reaches your rooms and you keep a view outside, which matters when a slow-moving storm keeps you inside for a day or more. Headers and sills come finished in white or bronze electrostatic paint, and inside pulls make second-story panels far easier to set.
