Shutters

The History of Shutters

Shutters have been around for many years. Their origin actually dates back to the early nineteenth century, when they were created for functional use as window coverings in the tropics. These original shutters provided protection from the harsh tropical environment.

In the 1970’s, the appearance of shutters in residential homes as window decor was on the uprise. Since that time, shutters have increased in popularity and have become the most sought after of all window treatments.
