SUNRISE, FL — February 1, 2026 — GL Homes® announced today that it is endorsing StormArmour, marking the first time in the company’s history that it has formally endorsed a third-party product. StormArmour is a Miami-Dade NOA approved hurricane and storm-mitigation system designed to prevent wind-driven rain from entering through the tracks of sliding glass doors; one of the leading causes of damage during hurricanes and severe weather events in Florida homes. “While today’s homes are built to meet rigorous wind standards, water intrusion through the tracks of sliding glass doors remains a persistent and costly vulnerability,” said Misha Ezratti, President at GL Homes. “When a storm is approaching, adding StormArmour provides a practical, engineered solution that enhances home resilience.” Damage caused by wind-driven rain entering through sliding glass door tracks may be excluded from both homeowners insurance policies and sliding glass door manufacturer warranties, leaving homeowners exposed to significant repair costs. StormArmour provides protection at the point of entry, helping to reduce the risk of interior water damage during severe weather events. GL Homes’ endorsement reflects its commitment to innovation, quality, and practical solutions that enhance home resilience beyond minimum building standards.

We’re proud to share that StormArmour® was recently featured in Politico’s Florida Playbook as part of an exclusive interview with Kevin Guthrie, Executive Director of the Florida Division of Emergency Management. As hurricane season begins, Guthrie outlined his top three preparedness tips for Floridians — and one of them was StormArmour®. StormArmour®: A Trusted Hurricane Prep Tool In the article, Guthrie drew attention to StormArmour® as a highly effective solution for preventing rain from entering homes and condos through sliding glass doors and windows. He explained: “Another tool Guthrie is drawing attention to is called Storm Armour, one that’s extremely effective in preventing rain from coming in sideways through sliding glass doors and windows. Think of it as working like a sandbag,” Guthrie said. What makes StormArmour® especially important is its role in condos, where water intrusion in upper-level units can seep down into lower levels, compounding storm damage. “It takes a handful of minutes to install,” Guthrie added, noting that StormArmour® can help avoid tens of thousands of dollars in potential storm damage. Built for Homes, Condos, and Peace of Mind Retailing at $585, StormArmour® offers an affordable, reusable, and proven way to block up to 99% of water intrusion through sliding glass door tracks. Officials and emergency managers alike see it as a smart alternative to sandbags — one that installs in minutes, stores compactly, and delivers lasting protection. By highlighting StormArmour®, Guthrie reinforced the importance of private-public partnerships in preparing Florida for stronger, more frequent storms. Be Ready Before the Storm We’re honored that Florida’s top emergency management leader is recognizing StormArmour® as part of the state’s hurricane readiness conversation. As Guthrie emphasized, being prepared is the best defense.
