Many people are catching on to the trend of upgrading the blinds in their home to the very stylish and popular plantation shutters. Spring Hill residents might have seen these kinds of shutters before on the inside of someone’s home where they no longer have blinds. The most common style is the kinds that go on the outside of your window frame, but there are many different types of shutters to choose from. Some people would like more than plastic shutters for their windows, and there are many different types of specialty shutters available, so people can get exactly what they are looking for.

Wooden Shutters

For those individuals that do not like the white plastic color of their shutters, Spring Hill residents have the option to spend a little more money and get shutters that are made from wood. Even if you are not sure if you want to spend all that extra money on wood shutters, there are simulated wood shutters or faux wood shutters that are great alternatives! This wood can come in many different styles and types, but it can also be painted to match the décor of your home. Wood Shutters if taken care of properly can outlast normal plastic shutters.

Metal Shutters

Some people might be confused when hearing about metal shutters, but these types of shutters are not the same as the ones on the inside of your home. With metal shutters, Spring Hill residents would purchase these and put them on the outside of their home to help protect from wind, water, and debris that are caused by strong storms or hurricanes. Metal shutters are a way to help protect your windows from breaking; they are not meant to be something stylish like that of wooden shutters.
