How Do Hinged Plantation Shutters Work?

Hinged shutter panels are attached to a surrounding frame and open into the room like a small door. Depending on the width of the window, the design may use one, two or several panels.

You do not need to open the full panel whenever you want more light. The adjustable louvres can be tilted while the shutter remains closed.

Where Do Hinged Shutters Work Best?

Hinged shutters can suit:

  • Standard bedroom windows
  • Living and dining room windows
  • Street-facing windows
  • Sash and casement windows
  • Selected bay windows
  • Openings requiring regular access

The panels need clear space to swing. Nearby furniture, curtain rods, handles and walls must be considered during measurement.
