Life on the beach is more carefree – even the architecture is more casual, with a laid-back Caribbean vibe. Bermuda shutters (also referred to as Bahama shutters) complement the casual style of your home while adding protection from both extreme heat during the summer months and the high winds that accompany the hurricane season. At Custom Storm Shutters Direct, we have been installing Bahama shutters and other types of hurricane shutters
for many years. Perfect for Florida Beach Homes
One of the things that make Bahama or Bermuda shutters so popular is the unique, top-hinged design. The strong louvers are constructed from aluminum to withstand severe storms. For everyday use, a pair of adjustable arms allows you to extend the panel outward and hold it in place – similar to an awning – so you can enjoy the cool ocean breeze while still maintaining your privacy. In some cases, you can set the pitch of the louvers to maximize circulation or to see outside while blocking direct sunrays as well as the prying eyes of passersby. As an added bonus, even when propped open, this type of exterior window covering boasts energy reducing properties. When a storm is on the horizon, the shutters can quickly be closed.
