Bahama Shutters (also called Bermuda Shutters) add a tropical feel to your home. They are available in Decorative (Fixed Louver) or Impact-Rated (adjustable Louver) options. Bahama Shutters are mounted with a hinge at the top of an opening and are supported with two adjustable arms on the side. Not only do these shutters look fantastic but they also provide shade in the hot summer months, natural climate control and privacy from neighbors and passersby.
In addition the Impact-Rated Bahama shutter quickly folds down into place and the aluminum adjusting louvers fold flat to form a wind resistant surface for the high winds during a hurricane. Protect your home in style with Bahama Shutters!
