My Safe Florida Home (MSFH) is a State of Florida program that helps homeowners harden their homes against hurricanes — including grants of up to $10,000 toward qualifying wind-mitigation upgrades. Your garage door is the largest opening in your home, and upgrading it to a hurricane-rated door is one of the classic improvements the program was built for. Unity Garage Door helps you through the process from start to finish.

Why upgrade the garage door first
When a garage door fails in a storm, wind pressurizes the house from inside — that’s how roofs come off. It’s why wind-mitigation programs and insurers pay so much attention to this one opening, and why a hurricane-rated door can also help your insurance conversation.

Frequently asked questions
How much money can I get?
The program has offered grants up to $10,000 for qualifying homes and upgrades. Amounts, matching rules, and funding windows are set by the State and change over time — we’ll help you check what’s currently available for your home.
Do I have to use a specific contractor?
The program has its own eligibility rules for homes and contractors. We’ll help you confirm the current requirements as part of your quote.
Is a new hurricane-rated door worth it without the grant?
Usually yes — storm protection, potential insurance benefits, and curb appeal don’t depend on the grant. The program is a bonus, not the reason.
