- Are these shutters functional?
- No. They are fixed-mount decorative shutters that attach flat to the wall and do not open, close or block light.
- Will PVC shutters hold up in coastal humidity?
- Yes. PVC does not rot, absorb moisture or attract insects, which is why it is common on coastal and humid homes. It can still fade or chalk over years in strong sun.
- Can I paint them a different color?
- PVC can be painted, but the factory finish is the intended look and repainting takes proper bonding primer. Touch-ups on a molded finish are harder to hide than on wood.
- How do I choose the right width?
- Measure the window and pick a shutter width that covers roughly the window's sides without overlapping the frame. Fixed shutters are sized to the opening, not to swing open.
- What is included with a pair?
- A pair covers both sides of one window. Mounting fasteners are typically included; check the hardware for your siding type before installing.
