If we say interior shutters are the fastest-selling window treatment in the U.S. would you believe?
It’s true! 2019 saw a shutter’s popularity grow by almost 15%. Shutters are known for their timeless style and durability.
We thought that it would be a good idea if we answer top questions about interior shutters.
Shutters are a window covering made from real wood or faux wood and have horizontal louvers that can be tilted open or closed.
The shutter panels can be opened completely for a clear view. Shutters are durable treatments as they are fixed to the window and they are constructed from durable materials.
They are considered safe for houses with kids and pets as there are no cords or strings involved that could pose a strangulation threat.
