What to Consider

While there are many advantages to wooden blinds, be sure to consider the following:

Complex Installation. Shutter installation is more complex than other window treatments like blinds or drapery. Custom-sized shutters are best installed professionally to ensure a precise fit.
Limited Light Control. While shutters offer excellent light control, they may not provide the same level of flexibility as some other window treatments, such as blinds with tiltable slats or curtains with adjustable sheerness. Shutters typically operate as open or closed, which may not be ideal for those who desire fine-tuned control over the amount of light entering a room.
Investment. One of the primary considerations of shutters is their relatively high cost compared to other window treatment options. Quality shutters, especially those made from wood, can be a significant investment. While they offer durability and aesthetic value, the upfront expense can be a deterrent for budget-conscious individuals.
