Genie's Drapery Service is a family business with roots in the Charleston area stretching back to the early 1900s. Our workroom on Old Parsonage Road has been producing handcrafted window treatments for over 40 years, and shutters are among the most requested products we carry. Through our brand partnerships with Norman, Hunter Douglas, Alta Window Fashions, and others, we offer a full lineup of window shutters backed by professional measurement and installation from our own crew.

Types of Window Shutters

Interior shutters are one of the most durable window treatments available. Once installed, they become part of the home itself, which is why they are a favorite among homeowners and interior designers alike. Plantation-style shutters with wide louvers remain especially popular in traditional, coastal, and transitional interiors throughout the Charleston area.



Interior shutters work well in bedrooms, living rooms, bathrooms, and kitchens because they withstand humidity, daily use, and direct sunlight. They are easy to clean and maintain, and they continue looking sharp for years after installation. Because they are fixed to the window frame, they also add resale value to a home that few other window treatments can match.


Our owner, Bill Murray, is a certified Hunter Douglas HTIS installer who brings that same precision and care to every shutter project. During an in-home consultation, a member of our crew will measure your windows, walk you through material options, and help you select the right shutter type for each room. From there, we handle ordering, delivery, and installation so the entire process stays simple and straightforward.

  • Wood Shutters

    Wood shutters bring natural grain, rich color, and a handcrafted feel to your windows. They are available in a variety of stains and paint finishes, making them easy to coordinate with trim, cabinetry, and furniture throughout your home. 


    Our brand partners, including Norman and Hunter Douglas, produce wood shutters with tight construction and smooth louver operation that hold up over time. Wood shutters are an excellent choice for formal living spaces, dining rooms, and primary bedrooms where you want a refined, high-end look.

  • Faux Wood Shutters

    Faux wood shutters deliver the appearance of real wood with added resistance to moisture, warping, and fading. They are built from engineered materials that stand up well in bathrooms, laundry rooms, kitchens, and other space where humidity levels are higher. 


    Faux wood shutters are also lighter than solid wood, which makes them a practical option for larger windows. Our brand partners carry faux wood lines in several finishes that closely mimic the look of painted or stained hardwood, so the visual difference between faux wood and real wood is minimal.

  • Composite Shutters

    Composite shutters are made from a blend of engineered wood and synthetic materials, giving them excellent structural strength and resistance to the elements. They hold their shape well in fluctuating temperatures and high-humidity environments, and they are among the most low-maintenance shutter options available. 


    Available through several of our brand partners, composite shutters offer a sturdy feel and long-term durability, making them a solid middle ground between wood and faux wood.
