Choose the Style That Fits Your Home
Four distinctive decorative options. One local team to help you compare style, shade, privacy, and storm protection for your home.
Colonial Shutters
Traditional Southern character with hinged, storm-ready protection that stays permanently installed.
Best for: Classic Southern architecture and curb appeal.
Bahama Shutters
Coastal style, everyday shade, and convenient protection that can be secured when storms approach.
Best for: Sunny exposures, shade, and airflow.
Board & Batten Shutters
Rustic architectural detail, custom shapes, and durable aluminum construction without the maintenance of wood.
Best for: Bold, custom exterior character.
Shade Screens
Retractable exterior screens that reduce glare and heat while adding daytime privacy and comfortable outdoor living.
Best for: Patios, porches, and sun-exposed openings where shade—not hurricane protection—is the goal.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much do decorative shutters cost?
Pricing depends on the shutter style, opening sizes, finish, and installation requirements. We provide a free on-site consultation and a clear, no-obligation estimate for your home.
Which options provide storm protection?
Colonial, Bahama, and Board & Batten shutters can be configured for storm protection. Shade Screens are designed for shade, glare reduction, and privacy; they are not a hurricane-protection product. Our team will recommend the right option for each opening and goal.
How long does installation take?
Timing depends on the number of openings, custom fabrication, and seasonal demand. After measuring your home, we will provide an expected production and installation schedule.
Can I choose custom colors and finishes?
Yes. We offer smooth and textured powder-coated finishes in a range of colors selected to complement your home’s exterior.
What maintenance do decorative shutters need?
Routine cleaning and periodic checks of hinges, fasteners, and moving parts are usually sufficient. We will explain the care recommended for your selected system.
Do the shutters remain permanently mounted?
Decorative systems are designed to remain installed as part of your home. Depending on the style, they may also be configured to close or secure when protection is needed.
