Exterior Shutters
Western Red Cedar Bahama
Bahama style shutters, hung from the top of the window, add a distinctive Caribbean feel to any structure. They may also be used to replace awnings and in applications where there is insufficient spacing between windows for traditional shutters to be hung. Exterior Bahama shutters are crafted from naturally decay resistant Western Red Cedar. The 1-3/8 inch thick Bahama true louver shutter design features flush stile and rail construction, giving this shutter a distinctive appearance.
Semi transparent and solid color stains are an excellent finish. When painted, a good quality, fast drying, oil based primer should be used. Left unfinished cedar will silver and remain maintenance free. Shutters up to 32 inches in width may be manufactured without the use of a center sub-stile. Above 32 inches, a sub-stile is recommended to help protect against warping of the louvers. Bahama mounting hardware, including hinges and telescoping push rods are available from our extensive hardware collection.
