Plantation Shutters

Plantation shutters with wide louvers, hinged panels and a hidden or visible tilt rod, made to fit each window and installed with a frame so they look built into the home.

Plantation shutters are the signature window treatment of Southern homes, with wide louvers that tilt to sweep light across a room. They look built-in and polished. Homeowners in Nashville choose them for living rooms, bedrooms and the front windows they want to feel finished.

We measure every window for width, height, depth and any obstructions, then compare louver sizes, frame styles and finishes, from crisp white to stained wood. We discuss how panels hinge, fold or bypass, and where a tilt rod helps or a hidden tilt looks cleaner. Shutters are built to your measurements, so we are exact. We install the frame, hang the panels and adjust the louvers so they close evenly and sit flat. Shutters are built to your exact measurements, which means there is no room for guesswork. We measure each window more than once and note anything unusual, from out-of-square frames to window cranks that stick out. Those details decide where hinges and frames go. Careful notes before the order are how shutters close evenly and look as though they were part of the house from the beginning.

Measure with care

Shutters are built to fit, so width, height, depth and obstructions are measured for each window.

Choose the louver

Louver width changes the look and the view, and samples show how each opens.

Pick the layout

Hinged panels, bi-folds and bypass tracks suit different windows, and we choose the right one for each.

Install and adjust

The frame is fastened to solid mounting and the louvers are set so they close evenly.
