We’re replacing the window shutters on the house, I’ve been told as long as I get good quality ones, vinyl shutters will be fine. And they cost less and are easier to maintain…

Unfortunately, I have no idea how to tell if vinyl shutters are good quality or not. I’ve read a little off the internet, but there’s not much information available.

Can I just buy stuff off the shelf at Home Depot and expect those to be good quality? They’ve got some Ply Gems ones made out polypropylene, And some Builder’s Edge ones is just says are made out of “durable vinyl”.

For the shutter style, I know I need what they call raised panel shutters.

Any idea how to tell if vinyl shutters are good quality or not appreciated.
