Benefits of shutters from Hunter Douglas
Adding visual interest to a space can come in many forms, such as replacing your furniture or changing the color palette of the entire room. However, those can be big undertakings. If you're hoping to quickly make a noticeable impact, think about updating your window treatments. At Appalachian Blind & Closet Co., our friendly team members are happy to help you consider the possibilities, including learning more about the benefits of shutters, automation, and more.
When introducing shutters to a classic space, it's likely that you may initially think about hardwood. Due to their timeless nature and long-term durability, it's no wonder that homeowners and designers alike tend to opt for these pieces. If this option piques your interest, consider asking us about our Heritance® Hardwood Shutters when thinking about the benefits of shutters. These Hunter Douglas window coverings, which are known for their impressive construction and beautiful appearance, can instantly upgrade your surroundings in a number of ways.
One of the benefits of shutters is that each piece is carefully constructed. Not only are they made from 100% genuine basswood or poplar hardwood, but they also feature a special Integra™ finish that promotes high luster. A noteworthy aspect of the manufacturing phase is that Truemill® dovetail construction is also utilized, which is one of the strongest methods for holding panels together. This stands in stark contrast to competitors who use glue or other less reliable methods for adhering the panels.
Once you have decided that our Heritance® Hardwood Shutters are the perfect fit for your home, you can then begin customizing each of your new Hunter Douglas window fashions. While we offer a wide array of paints and stains, we are also happy to work with you to create personalized looks as well. This opens up a world of possibilities when updating your decor. Then, if you really want to kick it up a notch, think about pairing them with Design Studio™ Side Panels & Drapery as well. As you can see, there are many benefits of shutters.
NewStyle® Hybrid Shutters are similar to the Heritance® Hardwood Shutters in terms of appearance, but their construction helps them stand all on their own. While they may look like genuine hardwood, they are actually made from a wood composite material co-extruded with a polypropylene coating. This means that you never have to think about the existing conditions of the environment. This is just one of the many benefits of shutters.
Finally, for bathrooms or kitchens, consider asking us about Palm Beach™ Polysatin™ Shutters. Thanks to their lifetime guarantee, you never have to worry about fading, cracking, or peeling. Plus, these beautiful pieces are the only motorized shutters on the market that can be paired with PowerView® Automation.
