Plantation Shutters Add Classic Charm

Available Plantation Shutter Options
Café Shutters
These window shutters cover the bottom half to three quarters of a window, allowing an abundant light source while also providing privacy.
Arches & Specialty Shapes
As the name implies, these shutters come in many different shapes and sizes. They can be made into arches, ovals, triangles, and custom designs tailored to your space.
French Door Cutouts
Many French doors with glass panes require a cutout around the handle to be able to install a shutter over the glass. The cutout portion can either be rounded or square based on customer preference.
Invisible Tilt
These shutters are equipped with a gear system inside the frame of the shutter frame. It allows the louvers to be adjusted without any tilt rod being visible from the front or back of the shutter.
Double Hung
These window shutters are two sets of shutters that stack on top of each other. This gives the option of opening up the top half of the shutter panel to increase the amount of light in the rooom.
Bypass Panels
These window shutters are fitted on parallel tracks, allowing them to slide past each other. These are similar to a pocket door and can cover sliding doors and large windows.
