Exterior Shutters That Finish the Look of Your Home

Properly sized, well-mounted shutters add color, depth and character, and they're one of the quickest ways to boost curb appeal.

Window Shutters by RemodelPro

Shutters were originally built to protect windows from storms and sun. Today most exterior shutters are decorative, but they still have a big job: framing your windows, adding contrast against the siding and giving a plain facade a finished, intentional look.

The difference between shutters that look right and ones that look tacked on comes down to details. A good shutter is sized so that, if it were closed, it would cover half the window. It's mounted close to the window trim, sits at the right height and uses hardware suited to its style. We take care of all of it, from choosing the style and color to installation that's secure and doesn't invite water into your walls.

We install shutters on their own or as part of a siding or window project, which is often the most efficient time to do it.

Why Choose RemodelPro for Shutters

Correct Proportions

We size each shutter to the window it frames so the look is balanced, not skinny or oversized.

Color Guidance

We'll help you pick colors that complement your siding, trim and front door.

Water-Smart Mounting

Fasteners and spacers are chosen and sealed to protect your siding and avoid trapping moisture.

Low-Maintenance Materials

Vinyl and composite shutters resist fading, warping and rot with little upkeep.

Matched to Your Style

Colonial, Craftsman, farmhouse or coastal, we'll recommend a shutter style that suits the house.

Popular Shutter Styles

The right style depends on your home's architecture and the look you want.

Louvered

Angled horizontal slats for a classic look on Colonial, Georgian and traditional homes.

Raised Panel

Solid panels with a raised center for a formal, substantial appearance.

Board and Batten

Vertical boards joined by cross pieces; a natural fit for farmhouse, cottage and rustic styles.

Bermuda (Bahama)

Top-hinged shutters that angle out from the wall, popular on coastal homes for shade and style.

Combination

Mixes panels and louvers in one shutter for extra visual interest.

Shutter Materials

Vinyl shutters are the most popular choice for low upkeep and budget; they come in many colors and simply need an occasional wash. Composite shutters are heavier and more rigid, with a more realistic wood look and the option to paint. Real wood shutters offer the most authentic appearance and can be made operable, but they need regular painting to stay protected. We'll walk you through the trade-offs and show samples.

Getting the Details Right

A few simple rules make shutters look like they belong on the house.

  • Each shutter should be about half the width of the window so a closed pair would cover it
  • Height should match the window opening, not the trim
  • Louvers should point up when the shutter is open, as if shedding rain when closed
  • Mount shutters close to the window casing, not out on the wall
  • Leave a small gap behind the shutter so siding can dry

Frequently Asked Questions

Are decorative shutters worth it?
For many homes, yes. Shutters are a relatively small project that can make a noticeable difference in curb appeal, especially on homes with plain facades. They're also an easy way to introduce an accent color.
Can shutters be installed on vinyl siding?
Yes. We use mounting methods designed for vinyl siding that hold the shutter securely without crushing the siding or blocking its ability to expand and contract. Holes are sealed to keep water out.
Do you install working (operable) shutters?
We can install functional, hinged shutters in suitable materials for homeowners who want them to close. They require more precise sizing and proper hinges and holdbacks, and we'll discuss whether your windows and trim are a good fit.
What color shutters should I choose?
Shutters usually look best in a color that contrasts with the siding, such as black, deep green or navy on light siding, or a lighter shade on dark siding. Tying the shutter color to your front door is a simple way to pull the look together.
How long does shutter installation take?
Most homes can be fitted with shutters in a single day once the shutters arrive. Upper-story windows and custom sizes may add a little time.
