PLANTATION SHUTTERS F.A.Q'S
Q: Why should I choose plantation shutters for my Asheville-area home?
Plantation shutters are a strong choice for Asheville-area homes because they combine real insulation value with a durable, built-in look suited to both historic and new-construction properties. Their wide louvers give you precise light and privacy control, and the material options — wood, composite, vinyl, or aluminum — mean there's a version suited to any room, from a humid bathroom to a sun-facing living room.
Q: How customizable are plantation shutters?
Plantation shutters are highly customizable in material, louver width, color, finish, and configuration. You can choose full-length panels for a classic look, tier-on-tier for independent top and bottom control, or café-style shutters that cover just the lower half of a window — each tailored to your exact window measurements.
Q: What materials are available for plantation shutters, and which is best?
Plantation shutters are available in real wood, composite, vinyl, and aluminum, and the best choice depends on the room. Real wood offers the most classic look and is ideal for living spaces, composite and vinyl hold up better in high-humidity rooms like bathrooms and kitchens, and aluminum is the most durable option for both indoor and outdoor use.
Q: How do I maintain my plantation shutters?
Maintaining plantation shutters is straightforward — regular dusting with a microfiber cloth or vacuum brush attachment keeps them looking new. Vinyl and aluminum shutters can also be wiped down with a damp cloth for a deeper clean, while wood and composite shutters should be kept dry to avoid warping.
Q: Can I get motorized plantation shutters?
Yes, AVL Window Blinds offers motorized plantation shutters across all of our material options, including real wood, composite, vinyl, and aluminum. They connect to your smart home system for remote, app, or voice control, and can be scheduled to adjust automatically throughout the day.
