ShutterLand supplies color-coordinated spikes or screws for installation of vinyl exterior shutters. Select the best method based on siding material. It is generally recommended to use shutter spikes in conjunction with all materials except for wood. This includes aluminum, vinyl, hardboard, brick, stucco, concrete and stone. Shutter spikes can also be used to secure to wood, but screws are preferred. Shutter screws are best to secure vinyl shutters to wood. Screws can be used with hard surfaces, such as brick, but then require wall anchors to properly adhere.
More Information

Single-wide vinyl shutters are fabricated with a single horizontal raised panel. Double-wide shutters incorporate a vertical sub-stile, creating left and right raised panel areas. Window shutters manufactured in a double-wide configuration can be up to 29” in width.
Choose from either a standard straight or eyebrow top rail. The straight top is appropriate for rectangular window openings, while the eyebrow top can be manufactured with a 1″, 2″, or 3″ drop on one side. This scale works for windows that incorporate a slight arch at the top of a rectangular bottom. Vinyl shutters are sold in pairs, with one for the left side and one for the right side of the window. The eyebrow option is only available for single wide shutters.
Select from ten unique profiles to conform to the window configuration or to give additional character. The #1 designation will indicate no divider rail with one raised panel from top to bottom. Options #2 – #10 allocate either one, two, or three divider rails in various locations. It is wise to assess the target window for existing horizontal divisions so the divider rails can align.
19 standard outdoor colors coordinate well with both existing homes and new construction. Vinyl black shutters are definitely the most popular and widely utilized. Black shutters complement existing features of the house while remaining neutral in tone. White and grays work in a similar fashion to promote a unification of all components of the building.
Blue, brown and green shutters may garner greater prominence but also highlight the windows and draw attention to the front door. Red shutters are the ultimate accent and will catch the eye. Pre-colored shutters should not be painted. The “Paintable” designation is fabricated from Polystyrene and arrives ready to finish. Most major paint manufacturers have compiled collections of outdoor house colors that complement one another. We encourage you to find an arrangement that works best for your architecture style, geographic location and personal taste.

Installation of vinyl shutters is usually a relatively quick weekend home improvement project. The lightweight panels easily lift into place and secure with either rust resistant metal screws or shutter spikes. Minimal tools and no previous experience is required for this do-it-yourself task.
We provide shutter spikes or screws, depending on your assessment of what is necessary in the process of measuring for vinyl shutters. Use “Shutter Screws” to attach to wood, vinyl, and other soft siding. “Shutter Spikes” adhere vinyl shutters to hard surfaces such as masonry, stucco, or hardboard. Both screws and spikes are color coordinated to match the specified shutter color. Vinyl shutters can only be installed in an immobile position and cannot be operable (swing open and closed with operable hardware).

ShutterLand’s manufacturing process has been streamlined to keep costs and manufacturing time at a minimum. Therefore, we do not deviate from these two louver sizes.
A tilt bar is a narrow vertical wood rod that interconnects a group of horizontal louvers. A tilt bar used in conjunction with movable louvers unifies the slats and allows them to rotate at one time. Louvers on ShutterLand premium wood louvers are fixed in position and do not rotate. A faux tilt bar can be attached to replicate the appearance of movable louvers, usually for historical purposes. Selection of a tilt bar adds $40 to the price of each shutter.
Most exterior shutter applications do not require a tilt bar.
If a divider rail is employed, the tilt bar can be added to all louver sections or only added to one section.
After incorporating a tilt bar, it is necessary to establish if the tilt bar will be applied to all louvers and if the louvers will be in an up or down position.
The tilt bar can be attached on the side of the shutter with the louvers in a down position.
The tilt bar can be attached on the side of the shutter with the louvers in an up position.
Red Grandis is a nearly perfect high quality hardwood to manufacture exceptional exterior shutters. It has straight tight grain and minimal knotting, resulting in a consistently smooth texture. The fibers are relatively uniform in color with variations from light pink to dark red, and accept paint or stain well. Red Grandis is dimensionally stable and extremely strong.
Cedar is the most common and recognizable tree species for the construction of outdoor shutters. This aromatic timber is resistant to both insects and decay. Cedar has condensed grain with few knots, resulting in straight handsome shutters with tones of red, brown, and tan. Cedar paints and stain well.
Mahogany has a compact grain with a rich, warm, reddish-brown hue. Mahogany shutters are strong, sturdy, and moisture resistant. Mahogany is relatively easy to finish and is heavier than other woods offered.

ShutterLand’s manufacturing process has been streamlined to keep costs and manufacturing time at a minimum. Therefore, we do not deviate from these two louver sizes.
Bahama shutters are uniquely designed to span the width of entire windows. A vertical sub-stile is used to create multiple louver areas to prevent them from exceeding their natural width limitation. The number of sub-stiles based on the schedule below.
Shutter Width: 16 – 27″
(Option automatically removed from the order page if shutter width is outside of these parameters)
Shutter Width: 24 – 50″
(Option automatically removed from the order page if shutter width is outside of these parameters)

Bahama shutters install to the top of a window with functional hinges and extend away from the building at the bottom with shutter stays. The shutter can nest inside of a window opening with sufficient depth or sit just proud of the trim. Most Bahama shutters cover the full height of the window, while others are shorter and serve as a canopy over the top portion.

Vinyl shutters in the 19 standard colors are constructed from Polypropylene. The color is molded through the material and shutters arrive ready to install. Polypropylene cannot be painted. The paintable finish shutters are fabricated from Polystyrene and are translucent opal in color.
All vinyl shutters have a wood grain textured surface. Vinyl shutters are constructed in the form of a shell, with four sides, a front and a hollow back. The panels can feel flimsy right out of the box and may not have the rigidity one expects from wood or composite shutters. They gain great strength and stability when they are attached to the building.

Vinyl shutters in the 19 standard colors are constructed from Polypropylene. The color is molded through the material and arrive ready to install. Polypropylene cannot be painted. The paintable finish shutters are fabricated from Polystyrene and are a translucent opal in color.
All vinyl shutters have a wood grain textured surface. Both boards and battens are are constructed in the form of a shell, with four sides, a front and a hollow back (shown at left). Both the boards and battens have a cap at either end of the component. The panels can feel flimsy right out of the box and may not have the rigidity one expects from wood or composite shutters. They gain great strength and stability when they are attached to the building.
Louvers can be oriented in a down position.
This option is recommended.
Louvers can be oriented in an up position.
A tilt bar is a narrow vertical wood rod that interconnects a group of horizontal louvers. A tilt bar used in conjunction with movable louvers unifies the slats and allows them to rotate at one time. Louvers on ShutterLand premium wood louvers are fixed in position and do not rotate. A faux tilt bar can be attached to replicate the appearance of movable louvers, usually for historical purposes. Selection of a tilt bar adds $40 to the price of each shutter.
Most exterior shutter applications do not require a tilt bar.

Louvers can positioned in a down position.
This position is recommended because the louvers shed moisture.
Louvers can positioned in a up position. This is not a standard option and can ordered only by special request.
Up oriented louvers are not recommend because there is no space between the louvers resulting in a potential for water to reside in the grooves which may shorten the lifespan of the shutters.

Red Grandis is a nearly perfect high quality hardwood to manufacture exceptional exterior shutters. It has straight tight grain and minimal knotting, resulting in a consistently smooth texture. The fibers are relatively uniform in color with variations from light pink to dark red, and accept paint or stain well. Red Grandis is dimensionally stable and extremely strong. Paneled area is composite (see below).
Cedar is the most common and recognizable tree species for the construction of outdoor shutters. This aromatic timber is resistant to both insects and decay. Cedar has condensed grain with few knots, resulting in straight handsome shutters with tones of red, brown, and tan. Cedar paints and stain well. Paneled area is composite (see below).
Mahogany has a compact grain with a rich, warm, reddish-brown hue. Mahogany shutters are strong, sturdy, and moisture resistant. Mahogany is relatively easy to finish and is heavier than other woods offered. Paneled area is composite (see below).
The central solid panel is fabricated from Extira, a composite material manufactured from sustainable wood fibers and marine-grade resins. Extira is designed for outdoor applications where humidity and moisture varies. It is strong, resilient and holds its shape in all weather conditions.
Southern Yellow Pine is the most affordable solid wood option. This wood has a beautiful golden color with a distinct wood grain pattern that is 99.9% knot free. It is kiln-dried to minimum moisture content and cut to 1″ thick shutters. The joints between stiles and rails are glued, doweled, and screwed for ultimate strength. Paneled area is composite (see below).
Southern Yellow Pine shutters are considered entry-level, or builder grade, with lower performance standards compared to 1.5″ thick premium wood shutters.
The central solid panel is fabricated from Extira, a composite material manufactured from sustainable wood fibers and marine-grade resins. Extira is designed for outdoor applications where humidity and moisture varies. It is strong, resilient and holds its shape in all weather conditions.
A divider rail is a horizontal bar (much like the top rail) that creates louver areas above and below the division. The divider rail height is 3.5″.

Straight top shutters have a standard horizontal top.
The arch of a 1:1 drop is equal to the width. So the measurement from the top of the shutter down to the start of the arch is the same as the shutter width.
A pair of arch top shutters includes one shutter with the arch on the left side and one with the arch on the right.
A custom arch requires a springline measurement.
Springline – the dimension from the top of the shutter down to the start of the arch.
A pair of arch top shutters includes one shutter with the arch on the left side and one with the arch on the right.
Flat panel shutters are constructed with a central even surface with no detail.
Shaker panel shutters are fabricated with vertical grooves cut into the central surface. The number of grooves is based on the shutter width.
Vertical grooves:
2 grooves for shutter widths 12” to 17 ¾”
3 grooves for shutter widths 18” to 23 ¾”
4 grooves for shutter widths 24” to 31 ¾”
5 grooves for shutter widths 32” to 39 ¾”
6 grooves for shutter widths 40” to 45”

V-shaped clear Lexan polycarbonate mounting brackets are used to install shutters in a fixed position. One edge of the bracket screws into the building with included stainless steel screws. The perpendicular edge overlaps the top or bottom edge of the shutter and secures in place with shorter screws.
The use of installation brackets avoids the need to drill or screw through the face of the shutter. They are clear, so they will not hinder the appearance of the shutter. Installation brackets are $6 per shutter.
Installation hinges will need to be obtained from an outside shutter hardware source. Select the “No Hardware” option.
The video on the installation page will help to visualize the exact process.
