shutters
Hinged window covers
Shutters are hinged panels that cover windows, either exterior panels for protection from weather and intruders, or interior louvered panels for controlling light and privacy.
To shutter a business is to close it permanently: They shuttered the factory last year.
In photography, the shutter is the mechanism controlling how long light reaches the film or sensor.
