The sun is shining, the garden is in full bloom, and you’ve just opened the French doors and let in the warm, golden light. But that doesn’t solve the problem—privacy. Light control. A finishing touch. This is when shutter blinds for doors step in.
Here at Woody’s Shutters, we usually have a talk with homeowners like you who love living spaces, which they want to make more functional without losing the style and comfort. And we understand your needs-you’re looking to have the best of both worlds, indoors and outdoors.
Now, let’s take a closer look at French door shutters (and especially those, which are extremely well stretched and crafted from wood) to understand how they can change your home into something entirely new.
Why French Door Shutters Make a Difference
French doors surely give a glamorous look, but they remain a quandary as to how one can dress them. Curtains? Far too heavy. Blinds? All too often, they are not a perfect fit. Yet, shutters that are tailored to suit are right on the spot.
The Magic of Indoor-Outdoor Flow
Your house is not confined to the space within the four surfaces of the walls. It also embraces the flow of your interior to the garden, patio, or balcony. Your windows and especially your doors can be the medium that unleashes that matchless connection. When attached to French doors, shutters allow:
- No light comes close to what the louvres will let in—ego the sunit will help only to let in a certain amount of sun
- A flowing design—the door and the shutters are set straight to each other
- Free ventilation—slide the doors and move your shutters as per your need for air, minus insects
- The utmost privacy—not like being in a goldfish bowl, other people’s eyes won’t catch you while relaxing indoors
Moreover, besides all mentioned, they are not the kind of window treatments to be blown around by the wind, nor get stuck in the door handles.
The Beauty and Function of Wooden Shutters
By choosing to buy wooden shutter shutters you are not only purchasing a window treatment but you are also investing in a piece of furniture for your home. Imagine deep grains, classic finishes, and a coziness that can only be found in wood.
Wood is also our favorite material for shutters due to its strength, timeless looks, and insulating properties-coupled with the fact that it is a natural resource. Whether you want the contemporary farmhouse feel, the coastal vibe, or a traditional look, the wooden shutters are always in line with your expectations.
And, to get our point across, we usually say to the clients that suitably mounted shutter blinds don’t follow the one-size-fits-all approach. We customize them for you with your exact door measurements, style preferences, and even hinge placements, so they work and look flawless.
