FAQS
What should I look for in plantation shutters?
Well, there are many factors you need to consider before buying plantation shutters. We will discuss some of them here:
Quality of material
The quality of material used in making plantation shutters decides the longevity and strength of the shutters. Timber, aluminium, PVC and other synthetic are common materials used in making of plantation shutters. Timber plantation shutters are the best material if you want more customisation or if you are looking for blinds for shaped windows.
Types of controls for plantation shutters
Plantation shutters more often are made using three types of different control. The most common control type is called Clearview, the centre tilt rod, hidden and motorised. Clearview and Hidden controls make the shutter look more modern and are the easiest to clean as they don’t have a tilt rod in the centre or on the front side of the louvres.
Types of frames for plantation shutters
When installing shutters, the panels can be mounted directly or using a frame. That is determined by how much depth you have in your window reveal. It is much easier to install shutters with a frame if the windows are out of square, or if you have more than one panel.
There are two main types of frames used for shutters called L-Frames and Z-frames. L-Frames can be used for both face or revile fitting while Z-Frames are used for revile fit only. These frames are designed with an edging that overlaps around the four sides of the window. Z-Frames give you more room to adjust the panels if the windows are not square. Also, they conceal any gaps between the shutter frame and window revile.
Size of louvres
Today most modern shutters are made using three different sizes of aerofoil louvres, 63mm, 89mm, or 114mm. The difference in louvre width will change the appearance and functionality of your shutters. For example, you will only get a couple of blades if you have a short window and you use the 114mm louvres. If you have tall windows and choose to use 63mm louvres, then your shutter will look busier. I think that’s why most people end up buying shutters with 89mm blades. 89mm louvres are remarkable because they are not too big and blends in seamlessly with most homes and architecture. When it comes to cleaning your shutters, you will also have fewer louvres to wipe.
Can I open just the top section and keep the bottom closed?
Yes, you can. If the height of the shutter is over 1500mm, the top and bottom section of blades divide automatically by a middle-rail. Otherwise, you can select where you want to split each section.
Buy from a reputable brand.
Choose a brand that has a reputation in the market and offers high-quality, highly functional and customised plantation shutters.
Ask for samples
Ensure that the company you choose should be able to offer you a complete and finish sample of plantation shutters. You can check the quality of the finish and construction of plantation shutters.
Proper measurements of each window
No two windows are the same, and you need to ensure that the company takes measurements of all the windows and construct plantation shutters accordingly.
Thermal Insulation
Ensure that the plantation shutters installed in your home offer thermal insulation. PVC and timber plantation shutters are the best when it comes to thermal insulation.
How long plantation do shutters last?
The average life of plantation shutters is of 10-20 years. However, it also depends on the material used and how often they are used. Aluminium and PVC plantation shutters are the most durable shutters.Â
Which Plantation Shutters Should I Choose?
There are many materials used in the making of plantation shutters such as wood, aluminium, PVC Vinyl Chloride, foamed synthetics, and basswood. Aluminium and wood shutters are highly durable and last for years. Faux wood shutters are economical yet reliable. Choosing the best plantation shutters depends on your preferences, budget, a number of windows in your home and the amount of thermal insulation you want in your home.
What are the different types of shutters?
There are a total of six types of shutters- full height shutters, tier-on-tier shutters, shaped shutters, café style shutters, fixed shutters, sliding shutters. When we discuss the material used in the making of plantation shutters, there are aluminium plantation shutters, faux wood shutters, solid wood shutters, synthetic shutters, vinyl shutters and basswood shutters. Also, there are waterproof shutters, bay window shutters, and conservatory shutters
What is the best colour for shutters?
Though white is the universally popular colour for plantation shutters, there are many other hues you can try as per your home décor and your personal preferences. There are many shades of blues you can choose. Also, in recent years, dark stain or grey shutters are becoming popular due to the classic, timeless look they offer.
Is Basswood suitable for shutters?
Basswood shutters have carved a niche for itself across the globe due to its versatility. They are highly flexible and versatile when it comes to designing and styling. You can paint, sand or stain them in any colour of your choice. They are also highly reliable.
What is the best material for plantation shutters?
There are many factors to consider when we ask, what is the best material for shutters? The truth is there is no best material for plantation shutters. Saying one material is the best is like saying Toyota is the best car when you need a boat. Most timber shutters are not moisture resistant when PVC and aluminium is. And if you like big wide modern panels, then timber is better because of its lightweight. The most important thing is that the shutter you purchase will look good on your window, function the way you want and built using suitable quality materials. Please feel free to get more info on the pros and cons of each material used to construct the shutter. Or speak to one of our shutter experts for guidance on selecting the perfect plantation shutters or blinds for you.
Are timber or PVC shutters better?
Timber or PVC shutters are both highly durable, but lets first start talking about PVC shutters.
PVC shutters are resistant to moisture and are easy to clean and maintain. As the louvres of the PVC blade have an aluminium core and the louvres get extruded from a machine that makes the final shape more consistent and durable than timber. Hence louvres on PVC shutters will close more evenly compared to timber shutters. The con of having PVC shutters are the material itself is heavy, so if you have large panels, they will sag over time and might need adjusting. We recommend that you use timber if you want your shutter door over 800mm in width.
Timber is the most popular material for making shutters worldwide for a good reason. You can stain Basswood or Teak shutters to add warmth and elegance to your home or paint it in any colour you want. Timber is also easier to carve and craft compared to PVC. You can make timber plantation shutter to fit nearly any shape window. The only con with timber shutters is that timber is a natural product and it’s not perfect all the time. So, you might notice that the gap between the blades, when the louvres are shut more consistent on PVC shutters.
Conclusion: we recommend PVC shutters with an aluminium core if you have standard square or rectangle windows, or if you are installing shutters in a moist area like bathrooms.
If you like the natural stained timber colour look, or want wide shutter doors. The Basswood or Teak shutters are the best options for you.
