Your Interior Plantation Shutters Buying Guide
When you’re ready to buy interior plantation shutters, Sunburst Shutters makes the process easy. Our professionals work with you at every step to ensure that your custom plantation shutters function properly and enhance your home’s aesthetics.
Our Plantation Shutter Buying Process
Our plantation shutters buying process starts with a free in-home design consultation. One of our Sunburst Shutters experts will come to your home to discuss what you need and want from your interior shutters. They will demonstrate our premium plantation shutter products and show you the customization options available, so you can picture how your interior window shutters will look.
Once you’ve selected from our types of plantation shutters, our designer will measure your window’s dimensions and note the shape and angles of specialty windows. If you plan to cover additional windows later, we will keep all of your information on file for future orders.
We use cutting-edge computer software to design your custom plantation shutters per your window’s measurements. Our US-based factory then uses that design to handcraft your interior shutters. When your plantation shutters are ready, our experts install your treatments with precision and care to ensure everything looks and works correctly. They open and close every part to double-check everything is right before leaving you to admire your brand new, custom plantation shutters.
Create The Perfect Plantation Shutters For Your Home With These Customizations
At Sunburst Shutters, we tailor our plantation shutters to your style. We want your custom interior shutters to feel unique and personalized to your home, which is why we offer several customization options.
Plantation Shutter Colors
Custom plantation shutters come in several classics, neutral colors that easily blend in with your decor. Faux-wood interior shutters come in crisp white hues that go with anything. You can also choose one of the dozens of wood stains or paint colors for hardwood plantation shutters to match other wood and decorative elements in your home.
Indoor Louver Sizes
Indoor louvers come in three widths: 4.5”, 3.5”, and 2.5”. Wider interior shutter louvers have a contemporary look and leave the largest spaces between open louvers for a better view. The narrowest louvers look good on smaller windows or in historic-style homes. Medium louvers look great on every window!
Plantation Shutter Tilt Rods
You use the plantation shutter tilt rod to move the indoor louvers up and down. A traditional tilt rod is attached to the front of the louvers, but you can also have it behind the louvers for a “hidden tilt rod.” You can also get a split rod that comes in two or three pieces to allow you to adjust specific sections of louvers. Split rods work best on very tall windows.
Enhance Your Specialty Windows With Custom Plantation Shutters
Instead of hiding your specialty window behind a square window blind or shade, you can use louvered interior shutters built to your window’s precise measurements. With our custom interior shutters, you can bypass the challenge of covering a specialty window while still being able to open and close the custom window covering. We offer many different types of window treatments that are cut and installed to cover any style of specialty window. During your free in-home design consultation, our Sunburst Shutters specialist will present all the options available, so you can pick out the perfect indoor plantation shutters or other treatments.

View ArticleCustom Plantation Shutter FAQs
With so many window treatments to choose from, it’s important to know what makes each one different. Our custom plantation shutters have many incredible features that add value to your home and a certain WOW!-factor.
The first thing you notice about interior plantation shutters? A stunning appearance. Their straight lines and symmetry are universally appealing, adding unique depth and texture to rooms otherwise full of soft furnishings. Plantation shutters become a permanent part of the room’s architecture and look equally traditional and modern.
Sturdy wood and Polywood plantation shutters last longer than even the best-quality shades and blinds. They don’t tear, bend, or break. Polywood plantation shutters are particularly durable, resisting damage from moisture, extreme temperatures, pests, and UV rays. And they’re effortless to clean. Just dust or wipe with a damp cloth to remove dirt and residues. Polywood custom plantation shutters don’t stain, yellow, or grow mold and will look pristine for decades.
Louvered plantation shutters give you more control over privacy and natural light than other window treatments. Just adjust the louvers to find the perfect balance between privacy and light control. Unlike window treatments that loosely hang down from a bar, your custom interior shutter frame is installed around the window and prevents any gaps at the edges where people can see in or light shines through.
The excellent craftsmanship of our indoor plantation shutters also makes them more energy-efficient than all other window treatments. They block outside air that can alter your home’s interior temperature. Insulating Polywood plantation shutters can prevent up to 30 degrees of temperature transfer from your windows and help lower energy bills.
Your custom plantation shutter project begins with a complimentary in-home consultation. One of our Sunburst Shutters experts brings product samples to your home and demonstrates how they will look and work on your windows. After you make your selection, we take exact measurements of your window and make your interior shutters right here in the USA using the fine craftsmanship and materials we’re known for. Finally, we expertly install your plantation shutters with careful precision to ensure they look and work correctly. At every step of the way, our Sunburst Shutters team is here to answer all your questions.
Homeowners love how easy our interior louvered window shutters are to use. Each custom plantation shutter covers the entire window — frames and all — and is considered a permanent fixture to the house. To open the plantation shutters, gently pull the panels toward you and to the sides. To close, just swing the panels back into the frame.
However, most people open and close the louvers to direct outside light. Just move the tilt rod up or down to adjust the louvers. If you have a hidden tilt rod, tip one of the louvers up or down, and the others will move with it. Opening and closing your louvered shutters give you total control over privacy and natural light in your home.
Do you have French doors or a sliding glass door? Not every window treatment works on doors with windows. Hanging window coverings like window blinds and shades can get in the way of door handles, and they swing and slap against the door when you use it, letting in light and causing annoyance. And cords can catch in the door.
Plantation shutters solve these problems. Sunburst designs your custom plantation shutters to have a cutout for your handles, so the interior shutters won’t interfere with the handle or vice versa. They attach securely to your door and won’t swing. You also don’t have to worry about cords getting caught in the door. Durable plantation shutters won’t wear out from lots of bumps as kids and pets go in and out either.
Interior louvered window shutters do an exceptional job of stopping drafts and UV rays that come through your windows and alter your home’s temperature. Their solid materials are impenetrable to hot UV rays and cold drafts, and their parts close tightly to keep outside air out.
Sunburst’s Polywood plantation shutters are the most energy-efficient. Their solid construction and patented weatherstripping dramatically reduces temperature transfer from windows and insulates your windows up to 70% better than wood interior shutters and even more so than window blinds or shades. Furthermore, independent tests show that Polywood plantation shutters can block up to 30° and have a 45.96% reduction in heat transfer. This outstanding energy efficiency translates into a more comfortable interior home temperature and lower utility bills.
Our plantation shutters make cleaning a breeze! Both hardwood and faux-wood interior plantation shutters require just a quick dusting most of the time. For tougher grime, spot-clean wood interior shutters with a slightly damp cloth and follow with a dry cloth. Moisture-resistant faux-wood interior shutters can withstand a little more scrubbing. That’s why we recommend our best-selling Polywood plantation shutters for kitchens, bathrooms, and children’s rooms.
The interior shutter-building process begins when our custom plantation shutter experts measure your window. Then, our state-of-the-art factory equipment will custom-make plantation shutters to your window’s precise measurements. Factory technicians take each piece and hand-craft each panel to make sure that louvers tilt effortlessly and that specialty items, like rear-mounted tilt rods and arched frames, will last a lifetime. Finally, our installers will fit the treatment over your window, and you're ready to enjoy your new plantation shutters. Everything on our plantation shutters is sourced and manufactured from the USA.
