a close up picture of white plantation shutters by Shutters AustraliaHow much do plantation shutters cost and is it actually worth it? These are all perfectly good questions and something that you’ve probably been wondering about if you’re in the market to invest in a good set of plantation shutters for your home.

Now truth be told, plantation shutters are some of the most expensive window treatments in the market today. Plantation shutters have been around for centuries yet remain just as popular for most homes and even business establishments. Why exactly is this so?

The advantages of getting plantation shutters for your window treatments

Perhaps the best thing about plantation shutters is that it just looks good and goes well with just about any home interior. Traditionally made of premium hardwood, plantation shutters offer an elegant and timeless appeal. Such window treatments are highly sought after by people and is sure to remain that way for generations to come.

Yet another reason behind the timeless appeal of plantation shutters is that it works as a window treatment extremely well. Plantation shutters provide effective and proven protection against the harsh elements keeping your living space cool and comfortable. These shutters also provide complete privacy as needed and serve as an additional layer of security as it’s considerably more difficult to break into, especially aluminium outdoor shutters.

Last but certainly not least, plantation shutters are good insulators and can help your home become more energy-efficient. The thick wooden slats help ward off excessive heat during a hot sunny afternoon reducing the load on your air conditioning units. In the same way, plantation shutters can be closed completely during the winter to keep living spaces warm without having to crank up your heating expenses. It’s no wonder then that homes with plantation shutters installed are priced higher compared to similar ones that are offered without it. These shutters make good long term investment that ultimately pay for themselves many times over.

Buying plantation shutters online

Looking to buy plantation shutters for your home but not so sure you can actually afford it? Indeed these shutters can be fairly expensive as they generally command a high price in the market. That said, there are a few things that you can do to lower your cost. One is to look for discounted plantation shutters online.

Online stores that sell plantation shutters do not nearly have the same overhead cost as retail stores offering these window treatments online. For one thing, they don’t need to operate an actual store (although some online stores do) eliminating man power and utility expenses. Online stores selling window treatments also aren’t limited to the consumer base in the local area and have a much wider audience to market to. Given all these benefits, online stores are often more than happy to pass on these perks to consumers in the form of discounts. Opt for DIY kits that you can install yourself and most people find that they can further drive down the cost to as much as a 3rd of the usual cost.

You had great options for my windows, some were straight forward however others were trickier (openings not centred, taps in the way etc). This is my second home I have put shutters in, wouldn't settle for anything else OR any other company!
