Southern Cross Storm Protection LLC, established in 2012, is a family-owned business dedicated to providing superior hurricane shutter solutions in Punta Gorda, Florida. With over 40 years of experience in the storm protection industry, the company specializes in a comprehensive range of products, including roll-down shutters, accordion shutters, Bahama and colonial shutters, as well as storm screens and panels.
The founders, Brant and Matt Smith, are part of a family legacy that dates back to the 1980s when their father, Don Smith, was involved in the hurricane shutter market. After witnessing changes in the industry focusing more on cost-cutting rather than quality and craftsmanship, Brant decided to create Southern Cross Storm Protection to bring back the emphasis on high-quality products and personalized consulting.
The company not only provides residential services, but also caters to commercial and industrial clients, offering a wide variety of materials and options tailored to fit individual needs and architectural styles. Southern Cross Storm Protection takes pride in its customer-centric approach, looking to educate clients on the best solutions for protecting their properties against Florida’s severe storms.
