The Beauty and Benefits of Wooden Plantation Shutters
Wooden plantation shutters are more than just a window covering; they are a timeless addition
New construction around Tucson nowadays often features arched, triangular, and uniquely shaped windows that do not easily lend themselves to traditional window covering methods and solutions but are a perfect fit for easily adaptable wood plantation shutters. Wood plantation shutters can easily be cut and seamlessly installed by a professional to fit any shaped window, and the ability to stain or paint wood plantation shutters offers bountiful opportunities to add your style sense to the mix.

Plantation shutters were around long before glass windows and were originally installed on the outside to keep the weather out while still allowing cool breezes to flow through. The extreme desert heat of the Arizona desert makes wood plantation shutters an excellent choice for thoroughly blocking or limiting the sunlight entering your space while allowing for adjustable, louvered control for ventilation, privacy, and light diffusion. Basswood and other woods commonly used for modern shutters are lightweight for easy operation yet solid and sturdy for long-lasting durability.
Wood plantation shutters with broader slats present a more traditional appearance, while thinner slats offer a more contemporary feel. They can be stained or sealed to bring out the beauty of the natural wood, or they can be painted in bold colors to make a modern statement or painted with more neutral tones for a style statement somewhere in the middle. There are so many options for grains, stains, colors, and slat and frame sizes and shapes that you’ll need a guide, and that is where Desert Window Wear comes in. Whatever your choice, wooden plantation shutters offer you a seamless, bespoke fit for any sized windows and the opportunity to make your windows’ style entirely your own.
