Tropical coastal villa with top-hinged aluminium Bahama hurricane shutters projecting outward for shade — Bahama-style shutters are top hinged and can become part of the architecture rather than an emergency product added later.

01Project guidance

Protection that works every day.

During normal conditions the shutter projects outward over the window, helping shade glazing and improve privacy. When the selected storm-protection configuration requires deployment, it closes toward the opening and secures according to the system design.

02Project guidance

The architecture matters as much as the mechanics.

Bahama shutters remain visible year-round. Proportion, projection, blade form and finish should therefore be coordinated with window size, façade rhythm and the wider architecture.

03Project guidance

Island homes and resorts are natural applications.

The combination of shading, privacy and architectural character makes Bahama shutters particularly suitable for Pacific and Caribbean-style homes, villas, low-rise accommodation and resort buildings.

04Project guidance

Decorative Bahama shutters are not automatically hurricane systems.

Where wind or debris performance is required, the complete shutter frame, blades, hinges, supports, locks, anchors and project substrate must be supported by the applicable technical evidence.

Technical claim control

Performance follows the exact system and project.

Opening size, positive and negative design pressures, impact requirements, tracks or frames, anchors and structural substrate all affect final performance. Apollo ties numerical wind, impact and certification claims to the applicable tested or engineered configuration rather than applying one blanket rating to an entire product family.
