Set apart by customer service that is second to none, EMS offers quality aluminum extrusions and sheet products, competitive pricing, and trend setting business solutions that give our customers the assurance they need to get the job done right.
"Just-In-Time Delivery" is the backbone of our business today. Stocking inventory and shipping it as needed saves our customers valuable warehouse space. It also assures them that the products they need will be there when they need them.
Whether it's sign extrusions, hurricane protection, sunshades, handrailing, or even a custom aluminum extrusion to your specifications, Eastern Metal Supply is the aluminum extrusions supplier that delivers quality products to your door.
Eastern Metal Supply acquired Flesher Windows in early 2011, rebranding the entity as Eastern Architectural Systems (EAS). EAS is now lead by executives experienced in instilling our corporate values of service and quality, key to our growth since 1982. By leveraging the quality of the former Flesher product line with our company culture of integrity and reliability, our dealers can meet and exceed their customers' needs with assurance unmatched by any other manufacturer. We offer the only vinyl impact window in the State of Florida with the Good Housekeeping Seal of Approval in addition to an array of other quality impact windows and doors. Our team of more than 400 employees will continue to develop and refine our products with the same quality and customer service you have come to expect from EMS for almost 30 years.
Our Earthwise™ vinyl and vinyl IMPACT hurricane rated windows are built specifically for Florida’s and the Southeast United States’ varied and extreme weather conditions, including the latest technologies for energy savings, and impact protection from hurricane and storm conditions. We offer a complete range of standard as well as custom replacement or new
construction windows, and encourage you to work with our professional sales team to determine which best suits your application, including designer and custom window options.
We also offer a complete range of aluminum IMPACT hurricane rated new and replacement windows, built specifically for Florida, using the latest technologies for energy savings and severe storm conditions. All of our aluminum IMPACT windows use a frame depth of 3 1/4 inch for superior strength and durability, and double veined felts to maximize prevention of air and water penetration. Preloaded spring balancers ensure ease of operation and longer life, and with custom orders can accommodate any glass option including insulated glass for greater energy efficiency. Also available in designer and custom options.
Our FD 8100 doors eliminate limits on architectural styling, with numerous color combinations of metal and glass, our doors are the right answer for any new construction or remodeling project. And as with our windows, all of our products have been tested to ASTM impact standards, the industry benchmark for 3rd party test criteria.
Bertha™ Storm Panels offer value and protection. These systems include removable panels made of aluminum, steel and clear polycarbonate. Panels are cut to size and attached with anchors or tracks for easier assembly and installation. Our storm panels are tested and approved for most areas.
BERTHA™ Guard is a resin-coated hybrid fabric that is 40% stronger than polypropylene, providing unmatched protection from hurricanes. BERTHA™ Guard provides "full envelope" protection of your home or commercial property, deflecting hurricane-force winds and preventing pressurization of the home. This pressurization is what causes roof lift-off during a hurricane and catastrophic damage to the home. BERTHA™ Guard weighs just ounces per square yard and gives homeowners and business owners the peace of mind knowing that their property, belongings, and families are protected.
Accordion Shutters are permanently installed for year round protection. They fold back compactly similar to a louvered door and are one or two piece shutters. They are installed beside windows and doors, balconies, and large patio openings. Accordion shutters are convenient, and easily closed within minutes. They lock from the inside or outside for increased security and protection. Accordions are made of aluminum and should be cleaned and lubricated yearly. Accordion shutters are considered one of the strongest shutters available.
EMS is proud to introduce the addition of an HV™ Accordion Window to its Bertha™ HV™ Accordion line. The HV™ Accordion Window allows light in without compromising the integrity of the accordion shutters. Tools are also available to make it easy to add onto to existing shutters.
When built into a new home Roll Shutters are virtually invisible and can be closed via electric motor. While in the closed position, they not only provide storm protection, they also protect from forced entry and theft. The system can be activated manually by crank or remotely using a motorized system.
Bahama Shutters are similar in design to the Colonial Shutter. Bahama shutters cover windows and are hinged at the top giving the house a Bahamian or tropical appearance. The Bahama shutter also reduces the amount of sunlight entering the window. Simply lowering and latching the shutter provides storm protection.
Colonial Shutters are hinged on the side and open to the outside of the window promoting the look of a Colonial Estate. Before the storm arrives, the shutters are simply closed and latched with hinges and or locking bars.
Increase the LEED rating of your GREEN Project with the HV Low Profile Decorative Bahama Colonial System from EMS. The Low Profile system provides shade for commercial or residential applications. It's mechanical design makes it fast and easy to install. Pre-fabbed side rails & mullions eliminate the need to mechanically fasten the blades, resulting in labor reduction of over 50% compared to traditional Bahama shutter assemblies. It's mill finish allows the fabricator the flexibility to match colors to the building design after assembly. It's perfect for mixed-use projects such as open air malls, restaurants, business parks or anywhere you want to achieve and an upscale look while providing a low maintenance, durable product for years to come.
