What To Know About Shutter Tilt Rods

The tilt rod controls a shutter’s louvers and adjusts them all together. Traditional tilt rods are visible directly on your shutter panels. If you want a different look, you can request hidden tilt rods incorporated into the rear edge of your shutters.

If you want the ability to open the upper louvers for light while keeping the bottom louvers shut for privacy, request a divider rail or split tilt rods. Both styles let you move the top portion of your louvers independently from the lower portion.

How To Pick A Plantation Shutter Frame

Depending on the kind of interior shutter you pick, you’ll have a variety of possibilities for frame styles. Consulting with your shutter design expert, figure out what type of frame will work with your window first. They can advise if your window needs an inside- or outside-mounted frame (or if either is appropriate), and what types are available.

Once you have confirmed your options, enjoy picking one that is best for your home’s style. Consider selecting a

Frame with a sill piece if your window has a sill protruding from it.
Frame that complements your crown molding.
Craftsman frame if you live in a Craftsman home.
Decorative frame.

Selecting The Size Of Your Interior Shutter Louver

Selecting a louver width primarily boils down to personal taste. Do you like the look of narrow louvers, wide louvers, or something in the middle? You should consider how the louvers look when tilted out and closed. Sunburst Shutters has louvers in three sizes: 2.5”, 3.5”, and 4.5”. The skinnier the louvers, the more you'll have in the shutter panels. The abundance of horizontal slats can impact your view when the shutter panel is shut and the louvers are open. You may consider the 4.5” options to open up your view. However, the 3.5” louvers are without question the most preferred size.
