Shutters

Permanent wood window coverings that increase your home's value—they're built right into the window frame.

What Are Shutters?

Shutters are solid panels (usually wood or composite) that mount inside your window frame and have adjustable slats. Unlike blinds and shades that you take down when you move, shutters stay with the house.

They're more expensive than other window treatments, but they're built to last and stay with the home. Plus they help with insulation and reduce outside noise. Weighing shutters against blinds? Read our full comparison.
