Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) About Shawnee Window Coverings

Wood ShuttersCheck out some of our team’s answers to some of the most common FAQs we encounter related to Shawnee window blinds, shutters, and shades below!

How Do I Choose The Right Window Treatment?

There are a number of different factors that can impact the decision-making process when picking your window treatments. First, know about any possible HOA guidelines that could put limitations on your options. Your budget is another important factor of course. From there, you should consider factors like the amount of light control & privacy that you want. What often is no surprise to most KC metro homeowners is that details like appearance and color are practically the last deciding factors, since you want them to look good in your home.

How Should I Clean and Properly Care For My Window Treatments?

Blinds and shades are relatively easy to care for and maintain.  Most products will require the use of a dry cloth to keep them free from dust and debris.  In some instances, a slightly damp cloth may be used.  However, you should never ever submerge your blinds, shutters, or shades in water, as this could cause damage.

Can Quality Window Treatments Help with Energy-Efficiency?

The amount of energy efficiency benefit depends on the type of window treatment that you have, but all of them can offer some level of window insulation. This helps make your house more energy-efficient, which as most people know, helps save you money on your utilities each month and also makes your home more environmentally responsible. Often cellular shades are considered the most energy-efficient because they, by design, have air pockets that act as additional insulation, however, all quality window treatment options can help.

Why Are Shutters The Most Popular Window Treatment?

If you’re looking for a window treatment that lasts over 10 years, saves you money on your energy bills, and looks beautiful on your windows, shutters are the choice for your home. Not only are shutters durable, but they’re also luxurious and energy-efficient. Blinds and Shades are also popular options of course, but it is hard to beat the option of shutters, and especially plantation shutters.

What Are The Parts Of A Shutter Called?

A shutter is usually comprised of 5 main components:

  • Louvers: These are the blades of the shutters, and usually come in 2 1/2”, 3 1/2”, and 4 1/2” widths.
  • The Tilt-Bar: This controls how open the shutter is, and can usually be found in the front, middle of the shutter, or hidden in the rear.
  • The Top and Bottom Rails: These outline the shutters and contain the louvers between them.
  • The Divider Rail: This runs through the center of some shutters, depending on size. When there’s a divider rail, the top and bottom louvers operate independently of each other.
  • The Frame: This surrounds the shutter and finishes off the decorative look of the window, making it look nice in your home.
