Do plantation shutters provide blackout?
This is the question we would rather answer before you order than after. It is also the one where most of the industry is quietly misleading.
Shutter styles
Solid Panel shutters
The non-louvred option. Near-total blackout, and a proper period look.
Solid panels closely resemble the traditional shutters of old, no louvres, just clean timber. Closed, they keep out light and street noise and help insulate the room.
Especially popular in period homes, and available in café, full height and tier-on-tier configurations.
