How To Customize Shutter Tilt Rods

The tilt rod connects a shutter’s louvers and moves them all together. Traditional tilt rods are visible directly on your shutter panels. If you want a different look, you can get hidden tilt rods built into the rear edge of your shutters.

If you would find it beneficial to open the upper louvers for light while keeping the bottom louvers closed for privacy, request split tilt rods or a divider rail. Both styles let you manipulate the top section of your louvers independently from the lower half.

How To Select A Plantation Shutter Frame

Depending on what style of interior shutter you select, you’ll have many possibilities for frame styles. Consulting with your shutter design specialist, figure out what kind of frame will be compatible with your window. They can tell you if your window requires an outside- or inside-mounted frame (or if either is appropriate), and what styles you can find.

When you know your possibilities, have a good time choosing one that makes sense for your home’s design. Consider choosing a

Frame with a sill design if your window has a sill projecting out from it.
Frame that looks similar to your crown molding.
Craftsman frame for your Craftsman home.
Decorative frame.

Choosing The Size Of Your Interior Shutter Louver

Selecting the size of your louver mostly is a matter of personal taste. Do you enjoy the look of narrow louvers, wide louvers, or something in between? It’s wise to think about how the louvers appear when turned outward and closed. Sunburst Shutters has louvers in three sizes: 2.5”, 3.5”, and 4.5”. The thinner the louvers, the more there are in each panel. All those horizontal lines can obscure your vision when the shutter panel is secured and the louvers are shifted open. You might consider the 4.5” ones to open up your view. Even though, the 3.5” ones are the most preferred size by far.
