We have three collections of shutters available, and you can find out all about them in this helpful guide.

Plantation shutters offer superior features when it comes to design. With broad appeal in terms of style, they’re sure to fit in beautifully with your decor. A vast selection of paints, stains, and woodgrains allows you to choose a look you’ll love. If you have specialty shaped windows, shutters are a smart choice because they can be customized for arches, angles, and other unique window shapes. With options for cut outs around obstructions–such as door handles, window cranks, or window air conditioners–you can have the function you need while creating a sophisticated, coordinated look.

You deserve windows that function easily, and that means you need options when it comes to operation. The beauty of plantation shutters is that all of your windows and doors can have the same look while also having different operating systems. With three choices–Hinged Panel, Bi-Fold Track, or Bypass Track–you can meet the needs of your home’s individual characteristics and coordinate the design and styling of your space. Plus, each of the systems was designed with child-safety in mind.

When it comes to the tilt of your plantation shutters, you have two choices: front tilt and rear tilt. With front tilt, the tilt bar runs down the middle of your shutters–giving it that classic shutter look. As for rear tilt, the tilt bar is hidden behind the side of your shutters, so you can’t see it at all. This look lends itself more toward contemporary styling and maximizes your view-through. With either choice, adjustment is simple. You just move a louver to the position you want, and the tilt bar, regardless of where it is, moves all the connected the louvers together. It’s that easy.
