Why Plantation Shutters?
It’s an open and shut case at Shutter of Ireland. From looks to energy efficiency, to security, to Privacy there are all sorts of reasons to choose interior shutters.
- Cut your heating bills and help the environment
Closing your shutters at dusk is proven to insulate windows and can dramatically reduce your heating bills. Choose FSC® certification for sustainable Poplar or Basswood hardwood shutters that use even fewer precious resources.
- Easy cleaning for a healthier home
Shutters are much easier to wipe off the wooden slats than traditional wooden Venetian blinds and curtains. When these get caked with dust, it promotes a breeding ground for dust mites. Unpleasant itching and allergies are the ultimate result.
- Create a clean and contemporary look
You’re not just improving your property, you are adding a crisp and contemporary revamp.
Friends and neighbors will notice the difference too, since nothing says modern-and-maintained
quite like plantation shutters. Shutters also add value to your home as they become part of the
house. They’re just the thing to enhance the look of your windows.
- Perfectly fitted in every way
Using shutters, you can define your own interior design ideas for your room.
Custom made, to the millimetre, they can go where ever want and can be
finished in any colour you desire.
- Shutter out the noise
When fully-closed, wooden shutters act as a noise barrier. Our shutters are sturdy and well made, so they won’t bang and rattle around like blinds.
- Feel secure with the Privacy shutters provide.
Adjusting the louvres will allow you to relax in the privacy of your own home, allowing light to filter into your room. Using a split tilt rod, shutters give you the option of shielding the lower levels of your window while allowing all the light to floods in through the upper levels.
- Control of light levels, protection from UV light fading.
The only window treatment that gives you complete flexibility to control the light in your rooms. Open back your shutters to let the room be flooded with natural light, or adjust the louvres upwards to keep the sun from fading furniture and floors. (UV stabilizers in the paint finish of your shutters minimizes the color fading.)
