What are Plantation Shutters?

Plantation Shutters are solid window coverings made up of frame vertical stiles and horizontal rails. Technically they look like wooden venetian blinds or wooden jalousies built inside a frame.



The framework of Plantation shutters can be of operable or fixed solid panels in fabric or glass. Shutters are mounted for the following reasons:
  • To control amount of sunlight that enters the window
  • To provide privacy away from prying eyes.
  • To protect against weather
  • To enhance the aesthetics of a building.
  • To further secure openings from intruders.
Plantation Shutters are custom-fitted to mount an opening, this includes interior shutters used on the inside of a house, and exterior shutters, mounted outside of the house.
