Which kitchen window treatments are most practical?
It can be hard to choose the right dressing for a kitchen window because it’s a functional and hard-working space. Cooking creates condensation, so it’s vital that your kitchen window treatments can cope with the humid atmosphere.
Hang curtains at the window and the fabric is going to take up moisture, and maybe even mildew. Fabric also absorbs cooking smells.
Some kitchen blind designs can obstruct part of the window when they’re meant to be open, blocking the flow of daylight into the room. Other blinds might start to warp in the humidity of the room.
Shutters for kitchen windows solve these problems. They’re easy to maintain and totally waterproof. This means they won’t warp or spoil and can provide all the practical benefits you need.
Why choose plantation shutters for your kitchen window dressing?
Window shutters are a popular solution for kitchen window dressing. They add a stylish finish and complement your interior choices. They also have the following benefits:
Control light and privacy
The beauty of kitchen shutters is the fact that they’re so simple to control. You can close and angle the slats for privacy, or open them to let the light flood in.
If your kitchen looks out onto beautiful scenery, or you want to show off your garden, you can also fold your shutters back neatly against the wall for a full panoramic view.
Waterproof properties
Waterproof window shutters are perfect for kitchen windows. They will not warp or spoil due to moisture build ups. They can also be easily cleaned and maintained.
Range of styles available
Kitchen shutters can be made into any of our shutter styles. From the total coverage of full height and tier on tier, to café style that covers the bottom half of the window only for a blend of light and privacy, there’s a style to suit any space.
Are plantation shutters a stylish solution?
Whatever look you want to create with your scheme, our vinyl shutters are the ideal kitchen window treatment. They work in more traditional or contemporary rooms, and come in a range of styles.
If boosting light is vital, café style shutters are a great choice. They cover just the lower section of the window for privacy and light control, and leave the upper part open for daylight to enter the room unimpeded.
For total window coverage, louvered full height shutters are stylish and offer light and privacy regulation or, for even more flexibility, try tier-on-tier shutters with independent opening of top and bottom panels.
Shutters will even dress French windows and patio doors as well as windows.
It’s easy to add color to the kitchen with shutters, too. Our shutters come in a range of shades and finishes, so you can add an accent to a white or neutral kitchen scheme, or team classic white shutters with colorful cabinetry and kitchen surfaces.
FAQs About Kitchen Window Shutters
Why are shutters good in kitchens?
In a nutshell, shutters in a kitchen make perfect sense. They’re stylish, hardwearing, secure, easy to clean and don’t retain dust, fat or odors.
Do kitchen shutters improve home security?
As shutters cover the whole window, they offer an extra level of security to your room. Many of our customers add a lock so they can leave their window open while keeping the house secure.
This works especially well on balmy summer evenings, or if you leave your pet in the kitchen while you’re out.
Are plantation shutters easy to maintain?
Due to the material they are made from, waterproof kitchen shutters are easily cleaned with a damp cloth. You can also dust with ease using a cloth or feather duster.
How can kitchen shutters regulate light and heat?
For comfort when you’re cooking and eating, and safety when you’re preparing food, it’s important to control the sunlight that comes in through your kitchen windows.
Shutters provide the perfect level of control. You can angle the slats to deflect the sun but keep the room light-filled on hot days. Open the slats, and light will flood in, then close them at night for a kitchen that feels cozy.
For kitchens with a great outlook on to the yard or beyond, shutters also have the benefit of folding neatly out of the way so you can make the most of the view.
