Miami Shutters - South Florida Homeowners Keep Cool, Save Money with Exterior Shutters
Miami homes feature Estate Millwork shutters in many styles.
Exterior Shutters Provide Artistic Miami Touch
Miami, Florida, is unique in the country in its culture and architecture. Combining a Latin flavor with a long tradition of snowbirds from the North, it has a feel all its own, and your home should too.
Your Miami home might be in one of these historic styles: Art Deco, Bungalow, or Mediterranean Revival. Whatever the style, Estate Millwork makes Miami exterior shutters to set off your South Florida home in its best possible light.
Of course, one of the main concerns Florida homeowners have is weather damage. Sun, wind, sea spray, and hurricanes all take a toll on Miami homes. But with Estate Millwork's all-wood Miami shutters, your decor will look as good as new even after years of use.
Miami Shutters: Form Follows Function
In the warm climate of South Florida, open your windows and cover them with louvered shutters to allow cool breezes to drift through the home. Adjustable louvers on our custom wood shutters provide a cost-effective and "green" form of air conditioning. The louvers open and close to adjust air flow, as well as light level and privacy.
On our website, you'll find leading-edge custom shutter design tools to help you create the ideal exterior shutters for your Miami home. We use cutting-edge precision machining technology to make exterior shutters that perfectly fit your windows. Custom shutters with both fixed and adjustable louvers may be ordered in many configurations to fit your home improvement needs.
Any architectural style of Miami, Florida, home can benefit from the addition of louvered shutters. Depending on the dimensions of the windows, furniture, and layout of the room, thinner or wider louvers for your Miami exterior shutters may be more appropriate.
Plantation, Bermuda Shutters Classic Choices for Miami Homes
Shutters are a highly versatile way to add emphasis to your living space. The style you choose for your Miami wood shutters is malleable, as wooden shutters can be made to suit a host of tastes and needs. Your design options range from rugged to chic, depending on your architectural style. Many Miami homeowners choose the classic appearance of plantation or Bermuda/Bahama shutters.
Plantation shutters give a classic look to Miami, FL, homes. And because the hinges of Miami Bermuda shutters run along the top of the window rather than down both sides, the shutters can be swung out quickly, and can be rapidly closed in preparation for bad weather. Choose a design that will blend with the lines and history of your home.
If ornate shutters are preferred, our expert craftspeople can add touches like custom mouldings or shutter horns. For unusual window sizes common to the Miami area, we can also create special shutter dimensions. Further customization options for plantation shutters include tailor-made rails and stiles, mouse holes, extra-wide or narrow louvers, or decorative faux lift rods.
Wooden Shutters: Durable and Good for the Planet
Estate Millwork makes shutters from the finest hardwoods, including oak, teak, maple, and cherry. The right style of wood shutters can be a welcome, aesthetically pleasing enhancement to your furnishings.
