Shutter Styles
Bahamas
- Non-Rated
- Rated
- Porch
Bahama shutters provide generous sun shading, privacy, and optional hurricane protection while also offering a beachy look. These shutters are hinged at the top and articulate out from the bottom. The shutter is held out with telescoping arms allowing you to adjust the shutter to your liking. Bahamas are available as both operable decorative shutters and as hurricane rated shutters. The Bahama shutters can also be locked and adjusted from inside or outside your home, eliminating the need for ladders.

- Louvered
- Board & Batten
- Raised Panel
Colonial shutters offer a more traditional look to a home. Colonials come in several different styles including Raised Panel, Board & Batten, and Louvered. While the Raised Panel style is available only in a composite non-impact rated material; the Board & Batten and Louvered styles are also available in a heavy-duty aluminum alloy component material. These shutters are hinged on both sides of the opening allowing them to swing freely. These shutters are held in the open position by shutter holdbacks - the most popular being the shutter dog or S-Hook. The aluminum colonials can also be locked closed from inside or outside your home, eliminating the need for ladders.

- Electric
- Manual
Roll Downs provide you with the ultimate protection and security for your home or business with ease. The manual roll down shutter system comes with a smooth, manual crank operator. Or it can be upgraded to a fully electric, motorized system that operates via remote control. All Roll Downs are made from the finest grade aluminum extrusions for maximum resistance and durability.

- Aluminum
- Lexan
Storm panels are the most cost-effective storm protection. These panels offer the maximum amount of protection and come in .050 Aluminum and Lexan (polycarbonate). These lightweight panels require limited storage space until they are needed. They are inserted into mounted tracks that are painted to match the trim of the opening. Storm panels can be installed from either the inside or outside your home, eliminating the need for ladders.
View MoreFabric Shields
- Panels
- Pulldowns
Fabric shield is a great lightweight option for storm protection and meets all state building codes. Fabric shields are designed to be installed from the outside of the opening with direct mount fasteners which are permanently affixed to the trim.

- Key lock system
Accordion shutters offer privacy, security, and hurricane protection. They are permanently anchored to your home or business and slice closed from each side of the window or door. Our accordion shutters can be configured to operate and lock from either outside or inside the opening, eliminating the need for ladders. Customers can choose between a thumb-turn or key lock system for their accordion shutters.

While each shutter system we offer is unique in their manner of deployment in the event of a storm; the process we suggest is always the same. Be sure to give yourself enough time to deploy or attach your shutter systems to your home before a storm. Some require more effort, like our Storm Panels; and some simply require the push of a button, like our Electric Roll Downs.
Either way, you will need to allot adequate time before the storm to close everything down. If you need a refresher, you can visit our YouTube channel; find the link at the bottom of the page. Outside of hurricane season, stay prepared by frequently adjusting any shutters with moving parts and ensuring you have all necessary hardware to secure your hurricane shutters.
Doing this will ensure you're always prepared for a storm.
