I'll do them for a $1,000.

I'll get some practice, my wife wants them on most of the windows when we move in.

Do you mean something like this?

The Villages Florida


Or folding is possible also

The Villages Florida

Yep. We have an Aspen with a sliding glass door off the living room with same size fixed glass panels on each side and a two window slider off the dining area. So there are four same size glass panels in the living room and two in the dining room. We wanted to be able to slide all of the shutter panels to the side of the glass so none of the view was blocked. Rick didn't give us the quote. We got it from the blinds people next to Bargains and Treasures. So the two left shutters on the four panel door would slide to the left and the two on the right would slide to the right and none of the glass would be blocked. I liked the idea of the alumacore shutters which Rick offers. The advantage is it's less likely to be warped by humidity, easier to clean and never needs refinished or painted. For $4500 we really like the verticle blinds.
