Plantation shutters are ideal for opening up a room by allowing generous
proportions of light to flow through. The shutters are available with 1
3/4", 2 1/2", 3 1/2", or 4 1/2" louvers. The larger the
louver, the greater the spacing between each louver, allowing for greater view
and increased lighting through the window.
