Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to common questions about our products and services.
How do I clean plantation shutters?
Plantation shutters can be dusted with a soft cloth or vacuumed with the brush attachment. To deep clean plantation shutters, mix equal parts vinegar and water in a bowl and apply the mixture to the louvers with a sponge. Also, you can wipe bedroom plantation shutters with a clean, damp cloth, then dry them with a microfiber cloth.
How do I pair plantation shutters with curtains?
When pairing plantation shutters with curtains, it is important to consider the style of your décor. For a more formal look, choose plantation shutters in a rich wood tone and pair them with heavy, floor-length curtains. For a more relaxed look, opt for white or light-colored plantation shutters and pair them with airy, billowy curtains. Plantation shutters on a bay window are also a popular option, as they allow you to enjoy the view while still maintaining privacy.
What is the best material for plantation shutters?
Plantation shutters are available in a variety of materials. Wood is a classic choice that can be stained or painted to match your décor, while vinyl is a budget-friendly choice that is easy to clean. Also, timber plantation shutters are a popular choice for many homeowners because they offer a warm and natural look. Ultimately, the best material for plantation shutters depends on your personal preferences and needs.
How do plantation shutters work?
Plantation shutters consist of a frame with louvers, or horizontal slats, that can be opened and closed to control the amount of light and air flow entering a room. The frame is mounted either inside or outside the window opening, and the louvers can be tilted open or closed using a knob or lever.
Are plantation shutters good insulation?
Studies have shown that plantation shutters can reduce heat gain by up to 55%. They provide significant insulation benefits, particularly in hot climates. The shutters work by trapping a layer of air between the shutter panels and the window. This air acts as a barrier, helping to keep heat out in the summer and warmth in during the winter.
What are the main differences between plantation shutters and blinds?
Plantation shutters and blinds are two popular window treatments that can add beauty and value to your home. Plantation shutters can be more expensive than blinds. They may require more upkeep due to their construction, while blinds are less expensive but may not last as long as plantation shutters.
