Premium Exterior Bahama Shutters
Elegant Bahama Shutters for Added Charm and Function...
Beautifully hand crafted, Estate Millwork's Bahama Shutter collection
will add elegance and functionality with loads of style to your home.
Distinguished from other shutters by the fact that they are hinged at
the top, rather than the sides, and usually have but one shutter per
window, rather than two. Ideal for warm climates, Mediterranean and
Caribbean style homes, Bahama shutters add shade to windows, porches
and cabanas, as well as allowing for the shifting tropical breezes to
pass to the interior of the house.
Solid Wood Construction...
Our Bahama Shutters are made from the top grades of lumber, and are
designed with extra structural details that allow them to be used in
even the largest scale. We have made Bahama Shutters that are in
excess of 14 feet wide, with as many as 7 sub-stiles. Our standard
thickness is a stout 1 5/16, and because these shutters are constructed
with top grade hardwoods and true deep pocket mortise and tenon
joinery, they are much stronger than most other brands. They can be
fitted with louver blades of any size and shape, and for some
applications, our customers equip them with operating louvers that
allow the louvers to be fully open or fully closed, or anything in between.
Expert Craftsmanship...
In order to maximize the durability of our exterior Bahama shutters,
they are hand assembled by master craftsman using parts that are made
in our state of the art plant. Our workers are skilled at the old
world art of mortise and tenon joinery, and have a knack for
assembling these elegant masterpieces in wood that sometimes can have
more than 500 parts. Each shutter is joined with precision joinery,
doweled and machine sanded. Then, depenging upon the application, it
will be hand sanded, primed, painted or stained.
Customize until perfect...
All of our Bahama Shutters are built to order, and we can work from
sketches, photographs, CAD files or existing shutters. Our goal is to
make the perfect shutter for each application, and perfection is a
cobmination of proportion, dimension, style and craftsmanship. We can
work with you to meet your exacting requirements, and because of the
high degree of automation in our plant, we are able to produce
completely custom, furniture grade millwork at very competitive prices,
often at prices lower than manufacturers using inferior materials and
joinery. Our website is a good starting point for your project, you
