Board & Batten Shutters

Board and batten style shutters distributed by Premier Shutters of New England were originally created as the cheapest and most efficient way to close off primitive homes and outbuildings throughout New England. The ultimate in simplicity, these shutters impart a pleasing warmth and rustic charm to your home. Board and Batten shutters are also design standards for beachfront homws along both coasts, on simple lakeshore cabins, and in the neo-Spanish architecture throughout the American Southwest.   They also form a welcome counterpoint when mixed with the more formal design of louvered and raised panel shutters such as is shown on the modern manor house design shown below.
