The majority of tract homes and even some custom-built ones either come with blinds or no window coverings at all. If you are in a home in need of window treatments or still using blinds and shades, here are the answers to 7 questions about why it is better to go to interior plantation window shutters.
Walk into any home with interior shutters and you will instantly feel the impression of style, grace, and elegance. Nothing says: “I care about my home and what you think of it” like shutters. They are obviously a step up from blinds and shades. Because they are permanently mounted and hand crafted, they speak to sustainability and upscale value.
They are crafted, sturdy, permanent installations. They are often designed to conform to or enhance the furniture and décor of the home. There are lots of choices to make in regard to the styling of them. Things such as flat or sculpted framework, thick or thin slats, hidden or obvious adjustment rods, sectionalized or one unified area of louvres, flat and flushed mounting vs boxed in.
Plantation shutters permanent pieces of furniture that are mounted to walls for the purpose of covering windows. They are furniture-crafted and professionally installed, so they add a lot more value to homes than shades or blinds. Real estate valuators typically add $75 to $175 for each window covered by them. When your home being competitively shopped against others, shuttered windows can be the deciding factors in your favor.

shutters handily outperform both blinds and shades when it comes to providing insulation against incoming or outgoing heat and cold. Shutters close tighter and act as better barriers against temperature transfer. Additionally, their physical properties contain constant temperatures much better than flimsy shades or blinds. Because they can be flush mounted and built out around the windows, once closed tightly, they provide real air deadening spaces that can be custom designed to your preferences.
Shutters provide privacy and keep the prying eyes from passersby at bay. Blinds and shades leave wide gaps around their edges, so people can always get a peek in. And the slats used in blinds seldom close as tightly as those in shutters. With shutters, you won’t worry about strangers peering in while you are home with the kids or far away on an out-of-town trip. An added bonus is how superior shutters are for deadening sound as compared to blinds or shades.
Shutters offer more and better control of incoming light and radiant heat than any other product. On cold and cloudy days, you throw them wide open and let in the warmth inside. On the other hand, when it’s a searing 100-degree day outside, tightly batten down the hatches and close your shutters tightly to close out the heat and create a shady, cool, interior.
Because shutters are sturdier than blinds, they are much easier to clean. While blinds are flimsy and hard to dust, even the lightest vacuuming can bend the slats, shutters are stout. Occasional dusting is all they need. Just run a vacuum brush attachment over them, or dust with a light cloth. As for maintenance, compared to blinds, there is none. No cords, twist rods, or bent slats. No broken gears or sliding issues. Shutters are durable.
