What Are Plantation Shutters?
Most people don’t regularly attend to window furnishings, so you may well be new to these types of shutters. Plantation shutters are blinds consisting of wooden slats contained in their own frame. This is then drilled into your windowsill or door frame.
The slats, which are called louvers, can tilt, moving from completely closed to fully open, or sitting at any angle along the way. They differ from regular shutters as the louvers are much wider, which means they work particularly well in large windows.
Plantation shutters can help to improve sleep by causing complete darkness in a room. They are also great for privacy because the louvers can be adjusted to prevent wandering eyes seeing in without the need to compromise on light or ventilation, the way you do with curtains or blinds.
Plantation shutters can help retain heat in a room by minimising draughts and are great additions to windows with single glazing. Noise reduction is also a benefit gained from these shutters, and they can keep your children and pets safe when windows or doors are open.
