Living Room Window Shutters

Real Wooden Shutters For Living Room Windows

When relaxing at home alone or with loved ones, your living room is a focal point of your home. Many living rooms feature large windows and doors, which offer beautiful views, natural sunlight and a connection to the outdoors. While necessary for both decor and comfort, living room windows and doors may also pose a challenge when it comes to light control, privacy and insulation.

Especially here in Texas, the intense spring, summer, and fall heat can make windows and doors a challenge. Our custom-crafted, solid wood plantation shutters not only provide lasting beauty and functionality, they provide significant insulation against heat from the outside in the summer, or losing heat in the winter.

Curtains are another popular window covering, but in order to provide both insulation and privacy, they are often heavy, difficult to clean and a magnet for dust and dirt.

Our shutters have a smooth, luxurious finish, elliptical louvers and custom trim to perfectly match your home. Many of our clients choose class white, while others choose a pop of color or black for a sleek, modern look.

At our local factory, we start from scratch and tailor our work to tiny increments to get that perfect fit we are known for. We can build unique shapes like circles, ovals, rakes (triangles), eyebrow arches, and half circle arches.

Types Of Shutters To Cover Living Room Windows

With our exclusive factory right here in Austin, staffed by the most expert shutter craftsmen in central Texas, who can make interior shutters for your living room windows exactly to your specifications. Whether it’s differing louver sizes, tilt or hidden tilt, having a divider rod, or other features, we can tailor your windows exactly to your needs. Here are a few examples of popular shutter blinds to cover living room windows:

Plantation Shutters

Plantation shutters are a popular choice for living room windows due to their versatility and classic design. Our plantation shutters are made exclusively of basswood, which is the most beautiful and long-lasting wood for premium quality plantation shutters. Our shutters are flush to the wall with no plantation shutter casing projecting out, resulting in a product that appears built with home. Our shutters also have no bottom rail, which means they do not collect dirt or damage your window sills.

We use premium hinges that come in many different colors to complement the hardware finishes in your house. Our louvers are shaped like an airplane wing, making them appear thinner and more elegant than traditional shutters. We also offer hidden rail or visible tilt options, depending on your preference.

Cafe Shutters

Cafe shutters are designed to cover only the bottom half of the window, offering privacy while still allowing plenty of natural light to enter the room. They are perfect for living rooms that face the street or a busy sidewalk. Our cafe shutters are also made of basswood and can be customized to match your trim and paint colors.

Sliding Shutters

Sliding shutters slide horizontally to cover the living room window, providing an elegant and functional solution for your windows. Our sliding shutters are made of basswood and can be customized to match your home's interior design.
