Celebrating 25 years: RollShield’s journey in Florida

From hurricane shutters in Clearwater garages to statewide recognition as a leader in home protection — the RollShield journey has been 25 years in the making. What started with one veteran’s vision for safer Florida homes has evolved into a trusted brand serving thousands across Tampa Bay, St. Petersburg, Sarasota, and beyond.

As we mark our 25th anniversary, we’re proud to look back at how far we’ve come — and even more excited about what lies ahead. Thank you for being part of our story.

From humble beginnings to industry leader

In 2000, founder and veteran Greg Moore launched RollShield with a simple mission: protect what matters most. Equipped with decades of construction experience and a passion for craftsmanship, Greg began building custom hurricane shutter systems by hand — for his friends, family, and neighbors in Clearwater.

Word spread quickly. Customers were drawn to the combination of personalized service, engineering precision, and reliable results that defined every RollShield installation. And today, RollShield stands as Florida’s largest manufacturer of custom hurricane shutters and motorized retractable screens.

Over the years, the company’s growth has been driven by three core principles that still guide every project:

  1. Integrity in service – treating every property as if it were our own.
  2. Excellence in engineering – designing products that go beyond compliance to deliver true protection.
  3. Commitment to community – supporting local families, veterans, and businesses across the Gulf Coast.

From single-family homes to high-rise condominiums, from beachfront properties to commercial buildings — RollShield’s expertise has helped thousands of Floridians protect their homes and businesses from hurricanes, storms, and everyday security concerns.
