How To Customize Shutter Tilt Rods

The tilt rod connects a shutter’s louvers and adjusts them in unison. Traditional tilt rods are seen on the face of your shutter panels. If you don’t like this look, you can get hidden tilt rods built into the unseen side of your shutters.

If you would find it beneficial to open the upper louvers for daylight and keep the bottom louvers shut for privacy, choose split tilt rods or a divider rail. Both options let you adjust the upper portion of your louvers independently from the lower portion.

How To Pick A Plantation Shutter Frame

According to the style of interior shutter you choose, you’ll have a variety of possibilities for frame styles. Consulting with your shutter design specialist, figure out what sort of frame will be compatible with your window first. They can tell you if your window needs an inside- or outside-mounted frame (or if either is appropriate), and what types you can find.

Once you are aware of your choices, have a good time selecting one that complements your home’s architecture. Consider picking a

Frame with a sill piece if your window has a sill protruding from it.
Frame that looks similar to your crown molding.
Craftsman frame for your Craftsman home.
Decorative frame.

Picking The Size Of Your Interior Shutter Louver

Selecting a louver size primarily comes down to taste. Do you prefer the appearance of wide louvers, narrow louvers, or something in the middle? You'll want to consider how the louvers appear when turned outward and shut. Sunburst Shutters provides louvers in three widths: 2.5”, 3.5”, and 4.5”. The thinner the louvers, the more there are in the shutter panels. All those horizontal lines can obscure your vision when the shutter panel is secured and the louvers are tilted open. You could go with the 4.5” wide louvers if that’s a concern. Although, the 3.5” width is unquestionably the most sought-after size.
