What they are

Built-in style for every window

Plantation shutters are hinged panels with wide, adjustable louvers, mounted to a frame that fits your window opening. Tilt the louvers to let in as much or as little light as you want, or swing the panels open to clear the window completely. Because they are custom-built for each opening, shutters look like part of the house rather than something hung on it.

Shutters come in real wood, which can be stained or painted, and in composite materials. As a Norman Window Fashions certified partner, we offer Norman Woodlore® composite shutters, which are made to resist chipping, warping and fading, making them a good choice for kitchens, baths and sunny windows.

Because every opening is different, shutters depend on careful measuring. We laser-measure each window and handle the installation with our own installers.

  • Louver sizes for different looks

Light control, privacy and lasting value

What plantation shutters do for a home.

Precise light control

Tilt the louvers to direct light exactly where you want it.

Privacy

Insulating layer

Solid panels add a barrier at cold and sunny windows.

Architectural value

Shutters become part of the house and suit almost any style.

Operating options & care

No cords, easy care

Shutters have no lift cords at all: you tilt the louvers with a tilt rod or a hidden tilt mechanism and swing the panels open on their hinges. That makes them one of the safest window treatments for homes with young children and pets.

Care is simple. Dust the louvers with a soft cloth or duster, and wipe composite shutters with a damp cloth when needed. For wood shutters, avoid soaking and follow the manufacturer’s care instructions for the finish.

  • Cord-free by design
  • Visible or hidden tilt rods
  • Dust or wipe clean

Plantation shutter questions

Common questions from Metro Detroit homeowners about shutters.

Wood or composite shutters: which should I choose?
Real wood shutters are lighter and can be stained. Composite shutters, such as Norman Woodlore®, are made to resist moisture, chipping and warping, so they are a strong choice for kitchens and baths. Many homes mix both.
Are plantation shutters child safe?
Yes. Shutters have no lift cords, which makes them one of the safest window treatments for homes with children and pets.
Can shutters fit unusual windows?
Shutters are custom-built to each opening. Ask us about arched, angled and other specialty shapes during your consultation.
Do shutters add value to a home?
Shutters are a lasting, built-in style of window treatment that many buyers notice. We can’t promise a resale figure, but they are one of the most durable choices we offer.
How do I clean shutters?
Dust the louvers with a soft cloth or duster. Wipe composite shutters with a damp cloth as needed, and follow the care instructions for wood finishes.
