What installing involves
Roller shutters mount outside with a housing above the window, and motorized ones need power to each window. Interior shutters fix inside the opening with a drill and a screwdriver.
Darkness and privacy
Closed, a roller shutter makes a room close to dark, with no view. Wood shutters let you choose: tilt for daylight with privacy, close for more, open the panels for the full view.

Where our shutters fit
Every Shutter Boys shutter is made from solid American poplar to the measurements you take, then shipped to Ajax for you to fit. For the inside of your windows, solid poplar is what we make.
