Thus a beautiful view was preserved for them.
Our homeowners in Colorado had this beautiful view out of the top balcony. This is an actual photo from the homeowner.
They wished to block the view from the house under construction on the top of the mountain. So we removed the railing and replaced it with exterior aluminum shutters
Working locally with experience craftsman the railing was removed and the fixed panels were placed into the opening..
So durning the summer months the homeowner could close the top set of louvers to block the other house and still have the bottom louvers open for air and sunlight.
The view and the feeling of having the mountain all to themselves by blocking off the neighbors brought them great joy.
Once finally installed the homeowner sent us photos of the final project.
A week later the homeowner was so happy because the shutters kept the snow off the decking and they could enjoy the warmth of the fireplace and the balcony.
Our homeowners sent us this photo and thanked us for helping to preserve the beautiful view. This was actually an untouched photo of the mountain that Marla sent us.
