Preparing your screen enclosure for a hurricane is important.
You need to look at the screws and bolts to see if they are rusty. Old rusty screws snap and fall out. This does not happen all at one time. But it happens that a few at a time fall out and at some point the structure comes apart.
You may have a lot of rusty screws but your structure seems fine. But then you get a stong wind or hurricane and it just comes apart.
So, check your structure for rusty screws and loose areas.
Secure your screen enclosure by replacing rusty screws and tighten up loose joints.

Hurricanes are severe tropical storms that form in the southern Atlantic Ocean, Caribbean Sea, Gulf of Mexico and in the eastern Pacific Ocean. Scientists can now predict hurricanes, but people who live in coastal communities should plan what they will do if they are told to evacuate.
What should you do to prepare your screen enclosure for the hurricane season.
Check your enclosure for rusty or loose screws, missing screws or missing bracing.
Everything put togather sooner or later falls apart, sooner when the connectors are rusty or worn.
If you are handy, you can replace screws or bolts yourself.
Check for weak, poorly attached corners. Enclosure angles and corners take heavy stress during a storm and one break can bring down an entire pool cage.
Check for improperly anchored support beams. Anchoring beams through pavers is not sturdy. Heavy winds can pull the pavers free from their mortar and sand base.
