01Project guidance
Start by walking around the entire house.
Map bedroom windows, feature glazing, entrance doors, large living-room sliders, balcony or terrace openings, garages and utility openings before selecting products.
Whole-home severe-weather protection
Hurricane and cyclone protection for the whole home.
Apollo maps windows, entrance doors, sliders, outdoor-living openings and garages as one residential protection plan, then selects the most appropriate system for each opening.

02Project guidance
Different rooms can use different protection.
Impact windows can suit bedrooms, accordion shutters can protect a wide living-room slider, Bahama shutters can shade tropical windows and a dedicated system can protect the garage.
03Project guidance
Occupancy changes the best solution.
Holiday homes and properties that may be vacant during storm warnings often benefit from permanent passive systems or simple permanently installed shutters rather than protection that depends on complex manual installation.
04Project guidance
Retrofitting is viable, but the existing structure sets the limits.
Headroom, side clearances, wall construction, waterproofing, existing doors and electrical supply all influence which protection pathways are practical on an existing home.

Open pathwayTechnical claim control
Performance follows the exact system and project.
Opening size, positive and negative design pressures, impact requirements, tracks or frames, anchors and structural substrate all affect final performance. Apollo ties numerical wind, impact and certification claims to the applicable tested or engineered configuration rather than applying one blanket rating to an entire product family.
