What Are Plantation Shutters?

Plantation shutters have surged in popularity across the United States, with many homeowners recognizing them as a wise, long-lasting alternative to conventional window treatments like blinds and curtains.

Origins and Benefits

The term "plantation shutters" conjures images of the American South, where these shutters were widely adopted for their visual charm and thermal insulation capabilities. In regions with harsh temperature variations, the ability of these shutters to insulate rooms, keeping them warm in the winter and cool in the summer, has proven to be incredibly beneficial.

Design Features

Plantation shutters are distinguished by their angled wooden louvres, reminiscent of traditional blind slats. However, unlike blinds operated with a cord, these shutters are mounted directly to the window frame and swing open like doors.

Material Options

Plantation shutters come in various materials, including cost-effective and sturdy options like MDF and vinyl, which are frequently chosen. However, there remains a preference for classic wooden plantation shutters, especially teak ones, in situations where modern materials like MDF clash with the room's aesthetics.
