Description
Mid-America vinyl window shutters are the world's best-selling brand. This is because there are so many style, size, and color options to choose from. Made from weatherproof fade-resistant polypropylene (a durable plastic for outdoor use), Mid-America exterior vinyl window shutters are built to last and covered by a lifetime transferable product warranty.
Style LP2 combination louver & raised panel shutters are made to mix & match with louver shutters or panel shutters. They make a great addition to the second floor when combined with raised panel shutters, but the possibilities are only limited by your imagination. These exterior vinyl shutters are available in widths 9 1/4, 12, 14 1/2, 16 1/2, and 18 inches and in heights from 22 inches to 110 inches in 1/4 inch increments. We custom make them to your specifications after you place your order using the latest plastic fabricating technologies.
With 16 pre-colored shutter options and a paintable type of vinyl available, you have a virtually limitless number of possibilities for matching or custom coloring your vinyl shutters with your house trim. Adding our black decorative shutter hinges give your vinyl shutters the perfect finishing touch.
Construction
Mid-America custom vinyl shutters are made from discrete injection-molded plastic parts. The parts are injection-molded in specific widths at the Mid-America central factory. We then cut to height and join the parts using factory-supplied ultrasonic welding equipment. The end result is a strong joint that won't come apart even under the most stringent weather conditions. Each shutter is then hand inspected to ensure high quality construction before it is shipped.

Available Colors
NOTE: Please do not rely on the colors that
are displayed on the screen. To get an exact color match, we strongly recommend
ordering a
color sample before placing your
order for custom exterior vinyl shutters.
If you would like to paint the shutters, order color #030 Paintable. None of the other Mid-America
colored vinyl shutters are paintable and attempting to do so will void the product warranty.
Frequently Asked Questions
- What are the advantages of vinyl shutters over wood shutters?
The color-through molded vinyl shutters are easy to install, easy to clean, do not warp, crack, fade, peel, split, or rot. Exterior vinyl shutters also provide better resilience than wood shutters under harsh conditions, such as near the ocean or in areas that receive heavy rainfall. - How do I remove the Shutter-Loks from the vinyl shutters once they are in place?
Slide a chisel behind the shutter until it comes in contact with the Shutter-Lok. Make sure to keep the sharp edge of the chisel away from the wall. Give the chisel a sharp tap with a hammer and it will cut through the Shutter-Lok. After the shutter is removed, shear the remaining part of the Shutter-Lok flush with the surface and bore out the shank with a drill. Fill the hole with silicone to weatherproof. See our Vinyl Shutter Removal Instructions for additional information. - My exterior wall is uneven. How do I install my exterior vinyl shutters?
You can use ferrules (a short cylindrical pipe) as standoffs to keep your vinyl shutters stable. Simply paint them, trim to size, and mount them behind your exterior shutters. Do not to put wood blocks behind the vinyl exterior shutters because they will rot fairly quickly.
