    Frequently Asked Questions

    Are shutters purely decorative?
    Most modern shutters are fixed and decorative, but we offer fully functional options in our Best and Premier tiers.
    Will vinyl shutters fade?
    Vinyl shutters have UV inhibitors, but composite and fiberglass offer superior fade resistance.
