Wooden Plantation Shutters
Wooden Plantation Shutters in the UK are seeing a huge return to favour in the 21st century. The traditional
look has always been admired in large victorian houses. What is surprising is how well the wood shutter look
transfers into modern homes. Far from looking heavy and making the rooms dark plantation shutters allow a great
deal of light into a room .On top of this they also make the room very dark when closed.
So you have the best of both worlds. A fantastic way to control light in your home and a beautiful look that
gives you privacy when you need it.
The wooden shutters themselves are made from a range of woods to suit different sizes and applications. Cedar
wood shutters have the fantastic grain of cedar and come in range of slat sizes. The Basswood Shutters can be wood
stained or painted. Wooden plantation shutters can also have a custom colour so your shutters will fit in perfectly
with your colour scheme.
For high humidity areas you can have plastic encased woods that resist warping and can be easily wiped down.
There are also a few MDF shutters for the budget conscious.
The most interesting application is wooden shutters for shaped windows. They can be made into arches, triangles
and even circles. Nearly all the shapes allow the wooden slats to tilt as well as hinge open like a door.
I always recommend that wooden plantation shutters are professionally measured and installed. The extra
investment in having an experienced fitter will ensure that they look better and are working properly.
