Frequently Asked Questions

Q: I am concerned about the cost of shutters. Are they worth it?

A: Yes; in additional to their architectural qualities, interior window shutters are the most economical window treatments to use when you factor in longevity, efficiency and functionality. Once installed, they are a permanent aesthetic of the house and will even increase the overall resale value of a home.

Q: How do I figure out which types of panels are appropriate for my décor?

A: There is a wide variety of architectural panels to suit almost any décor as well as customized options. We can help you figure out what will work best for your home environment or work directly with your own designer or architect. You can also visit our Window Coverings Guide to get some ideas on what might work best with your home location and needs.

Q: Can you produce shutters with the same color finish as my moldings?

A: Yes, from semi and high-gloss to flat finishes we can provide custom painting or staining on the panels of your choice and match what already exists in your home.

Q: I have a sliding door, would shutters affect accessibility?

A: No, our designers are not only concerned with how panels look but that form must also follow function. We design around windows and doors that have little or no depth as well as openings that need to be accessed for cleaning and ventilation.

Q: I have a bay window; will shutters affect the architectural quality?

A: No, our skilled designers are capable of developing trapezoid-shaped mullions, and ensuring that the shutters accent the beauty of your window while also providing functionality.

Q: I have a round window, can shutters be installed?

A: Yes, our specialty–shaped panels can be made to conform to the exact configuration of the window opening. Templates of your existing window are taken on site and framing strips are created to ensure a perfect fit.

Q: Who will come to do the installation?

A: We require that the designer who performed the measurements also be on site for the installation. This ensures consistency of the product that was sold.
