It’s commonly known that blinds are less expensive than custom shutters for your home. So, why are they known as the “premium” window covering option on the market?
Here in Wynnewood, PA, at Blinds & Drapery Showroom, we are equally excited about both of these options. But, for the purposes of this article, let’s discuss the several reasons that interior shutters are a very popular choice these days!
Shutters add elegance
Shutters have a way of raising the “elegance bar” in any room. There is an expensiveness and a level of care that is communicated with interior shutters that are difficult to achieve with other window treatments.
Instant face-lift
Interior shutters are the perfect resolution for unsightly, small, and oddly-shaped windows. When you customize shutters to fit your windows—they instantly look fresh and new. Your home (and you) benefit!
Easier to clean (than standard blinds)
Dust is so much easier to clean off wooden (or wood-like) slats than blinds. Do you have allergies? Does your family or do your frequent guests have allergies? Shutters help you to mitigate that. In general, standard blinds require more time and maintenance. The solid frame of high-quality shutters makes cleaning easier, faster.
Sturdy and long-lasting
Not that you intend to be destructive, but shutters can take a bit of a beating. Obviously, we do not recommend you purposely attempt to “see what they can take,” but when you adorn your Wynnewood home with interior shutters, you don’t have to worry about vigorous dusting that could otherwise rip standard blinds.
Painted or stained?
Are you the type to want to change the look and décor of your home periodically? Interior shutters can be painted or stained!
Raises the value of your home
Even if you are not looking to sell your home, raising its value is worthwhile. A higher home value can and will afford you more equity for future projects and/or will help to help secure your assets during economic fluctuations.
Noise control
Interior shutters from Blinds & Drapery Showroom act as an easy sound barrier, whereas standard blinds can not. Do you live in a noisy neighborhood or near a train station? Or, and be honest, is your family loud and rambunctious? Closed interior shutters decrease noise, measurably.
Keeping it comfy
Shutters have sealed frames which allow you to effectively block out the extreme temperatures changes outside. This provides an additional layer of insulation, regulating the interior temperature, decreasing the cost of your heating/cooling bill.
