Orlando Shutters - Louvered Shutters Provide Historic Touch, Storm Protection
Estate Millwork window shutters exterior style look gorgeous on many styles of Orlando homes.
Historic Orlando Homes
Orlando's historic districts feature an eclectic mix of home styles: Colonial Revival, Art Deco, Mediterranean Revival, Mission, Prairie, Tudor Revival, Craftsman, Minimal Traditional, and Neoclassical, to name a few. Estate Millwork provides shutters in Orlando, FL, to match all of these traditional styles of architecture.
The Lake Cherokee Historic District contains a number of houses from the Victorian era. Two homes from Honeymoon Row remain - the large Queen Anne style Poyntz-O’Neal House (1887) at 614 South Lake and the Gunby House (1887) at 709 Euclid Avenue. Along with the eclectic Shingle/Neoclassical style Peleg Peckham-Dr. Phillips House (1893) at 135 North Lucerne Circle East, these homes offer an impressive representation of the early architecture of the city.
Shutters To Fit All Orlando Styles
Louvered shutters are a fixture in Orlando architecture, giving an authentic historical appearance. Common throughout the area are multi-functional shutters with movable louvers that rotate for adjustable light, ventilation, and privacy. Residents of Orlando often close exterior shutters to allow cool moderate breezes to pass through the home.
Estate Millwork louvered wood Orlando shutters have the benefit of our precision machining technology. This allows us to create exterior shutters that fit your windows exactly. We help keep your energy bills down by keeping your cool air in.
Both decorative and functional, our solid-wood outdoor shutters also provide protection from high winds from seasonal hurricanes.
Whether Mediterranean, Mission, or Minimal, any style of home can fit with louvered shutters. Depending on the proportions of the room, windows, and furniture, a narrower or wider louver may be more appropriate to the style of the home.
Our custom Orlando shutters can be ordered with either fixed or adjustable louvers, in any variety of configurations to suit the style of your project. Our website features industry-first custom shutter design tools to help you create the perfect exterior shutters for your house.
Plantation Shutters
Plantation shutters give a classic look to Orlando homes. The operable louvers can be shut tight, providing you with privacy. The plantation shutter style also offers climate control of the louvers.
Estate Millwork offers many customization options for our plantation shutters. We craft shutters from the finest hardwoods, including oak, teak, maple, and cherry wood. If your interiors feature a particular style of furniture, the right type of wood shutters can nicely enhance your other furnishings.
If you prefer ornate shutters, Estate Millwork's expert craftsmen can add shutter horns or custom mouldings to your pieces. We can also custom-craft special shutter dimensions for unusual window sizes that are common in the Orlando area. Customize your plantation shutters further with tailor-made rails and stiles, mouse holes, extra-wide or narrow louvers, or decorative faux lift rods.
Bermuda/Bahama Shutters
Offering excellent storm protection, Bahama shutters, also known as Bermuda shutters, are hinged at the top to swing out horizontally at many angles. Bahama shutters add architectural interest and are a unique twist on traditional shutters.
Because the hinges of these 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 inclement weather. The quick-close, storm-protective nature of Bermuda shutters make them an excellent choice for Orlando homeowners.
Our Bahama shutters are resistant to fading, denting, cracking, and warping. They can also be refinished or repainted, saving money on costly replacements.
Bahama shutters can be raised to different angles, depending on the weather, cutting down on the amount of the damaging sun's rays that enter a room while still allowing air and light to flow.
A smart pick for Orlando homeowners, Bermuda shutters keep temperatures steady and consistent in each room of the house, allowing you to save on energy bills.
