Shade outside the glass

With 116 days a year at 90°F or more, exterior aluminum louvers or rolling shutters can shade a window before the sun reaches the glass. Inside, tilting wood louvers control light and privacy from the room.

Changes to the outside of a house

Exterior shutters change how a house looks from the street, so an HOA or city may need to approve them. Interior shutters don't.

Condos and apartments

31% of homes are in multi-unit buildings, where the outside walls belong to the building. Exterior shutters usually aren't an option there; interior shutters are.
