Shutter Styles
Shutters can be ordered in standard sizes or in custom sizes, so you’ll be sure to find something that will really brighten up your house’s exterior and give it that curb appeal that will make it the envy of your neighbors.
A louvered shutter is a classic look that will freshen up any kind of home style, but especially colonial, contemporary, and ranch-style houses. A raised panel shutter, with its European-influenced style, is a great alternative to louvered shutters. For a more rustic look, consider a board and batten shutter. These were the most common shutter in pre-revolutionary American colonial homes, built sturdy and stout to protect the early Americans from weather and wild animals. These days, a board and batten shutter is generally used for decoration on farmhouses and historic homes. And with durable vinyl instead of wood, the board and batten can be a lightweight and durable way to brighten up your home’s exterior. Board and batten shutters can be ordered in a traditional joined style, with all the boards tight up against each other, or you can also order spaced board and batten style shutters, which will offer a lighter, more modern look.
You can also order shutters with a combination of styles—louvers on top and panels on bottom—and these combination shutters can be done in either cathedral or straight-topped styles. Widths are available from 9 to 18 inches, and heights range from 22 to 110 inches.
Why Vinyl?
In the past, shutters were made out of wood—sturdy, heavy, and designed to protect a house from the elements, from wild animals, from intruders—basically, to keep the outside world outside. But wood is not a perfect material, as it will weather over time and is appealing to termites. Wood shutters require more maintenance, which is time-consuming and costly, and they will not last forever.
On the other hand, vinyl shutters are easy to install and durable, and they last for years longer than a comparable wood shutter would. With a wide selection of natural-looking, vibrant colors and a crisp woodgrain texture, vinyl shutters can actually look better than wood.
Think about the popularity of vinyl flooring as an alternative to hardwood. Sure, wood is the traditional choice, but real hardwood floors need a lot of care and maintenance, and wood floors are extremely prone to scratching, warping, water damage, and rot. Vinyl flooring is easy to install, durable, and it looks just as good as, if not better than, wood flooring. The same ideas are true for vinyl shutters. Vinyl shutters are a great choice for anyone looking for a durable, attractive, and long-lasting alternative to wood. Vinyl is the smart, modern choice. And with a limited lifetime warranty, you can rest assured that you’ll be covered if something goes wrong with your new vinyl shutters.
Accessories
If you want to take your shutter game to the next level, you should look at adding accessories. While all of our shutters come with the hardware needed for installation, there are definitely lots of ways you can accessorize your shutters. Get some decorative vinyl hinges, for example. Add an arched top with a louver or a panel. The world, as they say, is your oyster. The goal of adding vinyl shutters to your house is to add curb appeal, and you’ve got a lot of great choices for exactly how to do that. And with vinyl shutters, you’ll have a great way to make your house pop that will last – and will stay beautiful – for years to come.
