shuttered windows

Sealed with panels

Windows fitted with shutters—hinged panels that can be closed over the glass for privacy, light control, or protection from weather.

Shuttered windows evoke traditional architecture and storm preparation: The shuttered windows gave the house a closed, abandoned look.

Figuratively, shuttered suggests something sealed off or no longer operating.
