At Hunter Douglas, all of their window coverings have been specifically designed for the harsh Colorado climate.

Here’s why Hunter Douglas Shutters are a great choice for your Colorado home:

Let the breeze in. Block the sun with Hunter Douglas Shutters

One of the best things about shutters is that they may efficiently block the sun’s direct rays while simultaneously allowing air to move through your interior rooms.

The name ‘plantation shutters’ actually originated in the American south. On farms or estates that grew coffee, tobacco, cotton, sugar, or other crops, this style of slatted window covering was frequently utilized. Shutters were designed so that interior rooms breathe freely and stay cool.

Traditionally, the slats on plantation shutters were much smaller and less maneuverable. Today, our Hunter Douglas shutters have wider panels that are hinged and cover a part or the entire window opening when closed. They have larger louvers or slats that are controlled by a tilt rod (either front or hidden) to allow you to control light, airflow, and visibility.

Additionally, you may easily change the angle of your shutters to reflect changes in the sun’s direction. By blocking the flow of direct sunlight as it suits, you can effectively moderate the temperature inside your home.   The Palm Beach Polysatin Shutters can even be motorized, so the shutter can automatically tilt according to the sun’s location.
