Plantation Shutters: Everything You Need To Know

Plantation shutters consist of blades which can be adjusted to control how much light enters a room. They can be made from a variety of materials, including timber, aluminium and PVC. Their versatility means they can be used as internal and external window coverings and even as doors thanks to the option to install hinges.

With plantation shutters, your home or office space will ooze style and practicality. Thanks to their adjustable slats, you can control the amount of privacy and light entering your home or business. While they're great for keeping the sun at bay in the warmer months, they can also block cold drafts once winter weather arrives.
 
If allergies or asthma are a concern, plantation shutters offer a great solution as they effectively minimise dust build-up. They’re also incredibly simple to use and take almost no time to maintain – all you need to do is wipe them down with a cloth to remove dust and get them looking as good as new.
 
What's more, they can act as an extra buffer between your windows and any outdoor sources of sound, helping to block out noise from traffic and nearby roads. 

The material used to manufacture your shutters is one of the first things to consider when agreeing to an installation. While timber is traditionally used and valued for its natural look, both aluminium and PVC have established themselves as popular choices due to their ability to prevent heat from entering the space and to act as a great sound barrier.

They also offer improved security and their durability means they’ll be a lasting investment for your home or business.You also may want to consider the type of shutter you select. These days, there are a variety of options to choose from, including hinges, sliding, or bifold shutters.
