How and why shutTers are used

 

 

 

VERSATILITY

 

Plantation Shutters can be opened or closed completely, with the adjustable louvres opened or closed according to personal preference. Plantation Shutters are used as either window or door coverings, as well as room dividers; or to enclose patios and terraces.

ELEGANCE

 

Plantation Shutters add elegance and value to any home or business, as they enhance the entire feeling of a room or space. If required, installing oversized shutters that overlap above and below windows or doors, creates an illusion of a larger opening. Plantation Shutters can be used with absolute confidence in any setting, blending effortlessly with both modern and antique furniture.

SUN PROTECTION / INSULATION

 

During Summer or Winter, Plantation Shutters provide protection from the elements, including the sun’s heat and glare, and insulating rooms from the cold by providing an extra layer of warmth and protection. The louvers can be adjusted for air flow as required. Due to the fact that the shutters are rigid, they will not rattle in the breeze.

PRIVACY

 

Plantation Shutters provide privacy from the outside world, yet still allowing light and airflow through the adjustable louvres, which can be angled either up or down.

CONTROL

 

Plantation Shutters allow you to control the amount of light or privacy you require at any time. Although not used as a security device, when Plantation Shutters are closed they will add to the security of the property as access will be hampered.
