Changes to the outside of a house

Exterior shutters change how a house looks from the street, so a municipality or condo corporation may need to approve them. Interior shutters don't.

Aluminum inside the house

Indoors, aluminum usually appears as a stiffener hidden inside vinyl shutters, not as a shutter on its own. For an interior shutter, solid wood needs no metal core.
