Autumn is officially underway. A new season is an opportunity to shift things around, style and update your home. It doesn’t have to be a major revamp; a few minor adjustments can make all the difference. You can finally get around to do what you’ve been putting off for a while, one room at a time, with the help of these nifty tips and ideas from Plantation Shutters.

Updating a small study or guest room

You can easily maximise the potential of any small room in your home with just a bit of thought, creativity and proper planning. The right window dressing can have a big impact on the how the room looks and feels. Plantation Shutters provide a neat solution and, when folded back, they also give the room that stylish and neat vibe.

Install shutters as a door

Shutters can be used as doors as well as window protection. Replacing the door leading to the bathroom with custom-made Plantation Shutters will instantly brighten your en-suite bedroom. With a simple tilt of the louvres you can vary the levels of screening, whether you want complete privacy, or just a slight screening.

Have shutters on doors leading to an outdoor space, such as a patio – being able to open the louvres makes the most of the view to the outdoors and really opens up the room, letting the outdoors in whenever the weather allows.

Use shutters in the doorway leading to a dressing room or walk-in closet to streamline the look of your bedroom while adding architectural interest.

Add a layer of security

Secure an internal doorway between your living and bedrooms with Plantation Security Shutters – it’s a super stylish alternative for adding an extra layer of security at night.

Plantation Security Shutters allow for a window or door to be left open with complete peace of mind, so consider them for windows that you would like to leave open, such as kitchen or bathroom windows.

Divide a room – in style

Room dividers are cost-effective options for creating separate spaces where no walls exist. Plantation Shutters can be custom made into floor-to-ceiling room dividers, bringing a high-end, contemporary look to your space. The shutters can be left open when free movement between the rooms is required, but they can just as easily be closed when necessary.
