ABSTRACT:
A colonial style pressure-vent hurricane shutter having predetermined requisite strength of shutter framework (1) encompassing slatted-louver apertures (4) with slat-support guides (7) for protection against storm-borne objects, wind and rain and venting harmful buildups and bursts of pressure from vacuums created on building from hurricane forces. The shutter framework includes structural beams to which ends of slanted slats (5) are attached rigidly. Ends of slat-support guides (7) are affixed intermediate the ends of both the inward edges of the slanted slats (6) and the outward edges of the slanted slats (21). The shutter framework (1) have hold down tabs (22) to keep the shutter framework (1) from being blown open during a storm. The shutter framework (1) has ribbed hinges (25) to at least one side of a building aperture in accordance with desired shutter style and structure which include top-hinged Bahama Shutters (8) and sides-hinged Colonial Shutters (9).
