NEW! From Palm Beach Shutters

It's The
End Of The Louver As
We Know It!

New Seamless Recessed End Caps Provide a Smooth Continuous Look!

It's What You Don't See
That Makes Palm Beach Better

Now Palm Beach Shutters by Designer Blinds feature innovative recessed seamless end caps that eliminate the seam between the louver and the end cap for a sleek soft modern look that more closely emulates the appearance of wood shutters while retaining the advantages of vinyl. What you won't see is unsightly grooves, glue stains or misfit caps.

As of October 1, 2002 All Palm Beach Shutters by Designer Blinds are handcrafted using the new seamless caps.

Other Unique Features Of Palm Beach Shutters:

Handcrafted Polysatin Shutters
Exclusive to Palm Beach Shutters, Polysatin is a colorfast vinyl compound with UV stabilizers. It is fire retardant and self extinguishing. Polyresin 3 makes Palm Beach shutters resist dents and scratches. They will not warp, crack, chip or peel and they never need to be painted. This compound makes Palm Beach Shutters easy to clean with just soap and water.

Choice of Styles
Palm Beach shutters are available with either 2½" or 3½" louvers in white, almond, or ivory to complement any decor. Four frame styles allow a perfect fit in every window. Palm Beach shutters give you control over light and add new dimension to your home. Palm Beach shutters are the modern way to achieve the traditional look of shutters.

Your Choice: Patented ClearLight™ Shutter
Or Traditional Locking Tiltbars
The hidden louver connectors of ClearLight™ Shutters (left) provide an unobstructed view for a clean contemporary look while traditional shutters (right) emphasize the historic look of shutters.

Locking Tilt Bar connector
Featured on traditional shutters, the patented connector allows louvers to be opened/closed, and locked in unison. There are no unsightly gears or staples.

Factory Installed Color Matching Two-part Hinge
Even the hinges are special on Palm Beach shutters. They are color matched and won't discolor over time. They also allow quick and easy removal and replacement of panels for cleaning and access to the window

Frame styles to suit any application, inside or outside mount. Frames are assembled with mitred corners and strengthened by internally concealed corner keys for additional strength. In windows that require unframed panels, there are a variety of additional installation options.
