Plantation Shutters 101

Welcome to a new series here at Wasatch Shutter Design: Plantation Shutters 101. Over the next few weeks we will be discussing some of the common questions that people have when considering different window covering options for their home. We will delve into topics surrounding window shapes, installation challenges, different types of shutter materials and their ideal applications, as well as how plantation shutters are custom made to fit your unique windows.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]In each home that we visit, the windows are all built a little differently. We have installed shutters in homes that were recently built, homes built in 1900 and everything in-between. As we have seen the inside of thousands of homes, we have had to get creative in the way that we build and install plantation shutters into different sized windows, as they are all very different.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Some windows have been framed around the edge, some have tile window sills, some sills are flush with the wall, and some windows have no frame at all. In all situations, plantation shutters can be custom built to fit each unique window, creating an artfully framed window and enhancing the beauty of the room.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_media_grid initial_loading_animation=”none” grid_id=”vc_gid:1473792576423-f335833b-5f0c-7″ include=”2378,2374,2379″][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Watch the video below to see the many different types of window frames we have encountered and how we have created custom applications for each one.

Mounting frames are also built to accommodate any architectural style such as craftsman, modern, colonial, traditional and contemporary. Even if no frame currently exists, by the time our installers are done, your window will look framed and finished.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]
