Homeowners these days, either with a modern or conventional home should always consider how to keep their homes safe.

Board and batten shutters have always been used by most American homes. These shutters were inspired by Spanish colonial homes and North eastern houses, where their shutters are in two to five board styles with their boards joined together.
These board and batten exterior shutters could create a vintage look, but with today’s innovative technologies, these shutters now have a twist of modern style. They are no longer limited to wood materials as what they are made of before.
Today, these exterior board and batten shutters are now made of Vinyl, Cedar, Azek Composite, or painted composite. These types of materials are more durable and reliable. They do not easily get damaged, rot, chip off, discolour, and wither. They are now more reliable in any kind of weather, either hot or cold.
