Storm Protection Made Easy In Gulfport & Hattiesburg
For homeowners across Southern Mississippi, storm protection is more than a seasonal concern — it’s a way of life. That’s why Window World of Southern Mississippi proudly offers Bahama shutters that provide the ideal blend of Southern charm and serious defense against hurricanes.
These shutters not only help shield your windows from flying debris and high winds but also contribute to the laid-back, breezy aesthetic found in homes from Gulfport to Hattiesburg and beyond.
What Are Bahama Shutters?
Known for their signature top-hinged design and tropical flair, Bahama shutters are a popular choice for coastal homes throughout the Southeast.
Also referred to as Bahama window shutters, outdoor Bahama shutters or Bahama exterior window shutters, they mount above your windows and can be angled open to provide sun protection and airflow—or closed securely in preparation for a storm.
Made from sturdy aluminum and powder-coated to resist rust, these shutters are built to endure salt air, intense UV rays and the unpredictable weather conditions of the Gulf Coast.
Their permanent installation and user-friendly design make them an ideal solution for second-story windows or homes with expansive beachfront views. Trust Window World for solutions that safeguard your home for the long haul.

Designed For The Southern Mississippi Lifestyle
Southern Mississippi’s homes reflect a unique blend of Gulf Coast resilience and Southern elegance. You’ll find everything from historic raised cottages and Colonial Revivals to modern craftsman homes, many featuring elevated porches, large windows and open-air living spaces. Bahama shutters fit naturally into this architectural landscape, especially when it comes to:
- Coastal cottages — Maintain a breezy, beachy look while adding hurricane-rated defense.
- Craftsman-style homes — Choose custom colors and louvers that match your home’s trim or siding.
- Raised foundation homes — Enjoy easy access for shutter operation on upper floors.
- Vacation or second homes — Protect your investment when you’re away, with shutters that lock securely into place.
In a region where porch sitting, backyard cookouts and long summer days are part of the rhythm of life, Bahama shutters also enhance comfort. By keeping direct sunlight out while still allowing air circulation, they make it easier to enjoy your home — indoors and out — even on the hottest days.
