Lucky enough to have French or Patio Doors in your home? They are a beautiful feature but can be a real pain to dress! Curtains can look heavy and only give you two options: open or closed. Some choose to leave patio doors undressed but soon realise this brings an expanse of darkness at night-time that can make a room feel cold instead of cosy.
Using plantation shutters is the perfect option to dress your French doors. Hardwood shutters give you a modern but elegant feel and offer much more flexibility with lighting, airflow, and insulation. If your doors are overlooked, shutters have the added benefit of giving you privacy while allowing in light and air.
Our customers with children or pets also tell us how helpful it can be in the summer to allow ventilation through shutters while keeping a valuable barrier to the garden.
Take a look at some of our recent patio door shutter projects for our customers.
Rather than sit in a frame that opens outwards, we use a concertina effect for patio door shutters which effortlessly glide with no frames or hinges needed. They slide on a track to neatly fold away to one side.
