What a wonderful experience. Wilma and Jamie were fantastic and we couldn’t be happier with our window shutters. The communication was great and they were a pleasure to work with from start to finish. 10/10 would recommend!

Control Options for Shutters
Added convenience to your home helps make life just a little easier, which is why Hunter Douglas offers several types of control options for custom shutters:
Louver Tilt Options
Your louver tilt options are:
- Front Tilt: The classic tilt bar style adjusts the louvers when you push up or pull down.
- HiddenTilt™: This system eliminates the tilt bar to provide the clearest view. Moving a single louver adjusts all louvers on the panel.
- TruView™ Rear Tilt: A minimalist design with an integrated tilt bar; close the louvers with an upward sweep of the palm from bottom to top.
- PowerView® Automation: An intuitive, user-friendly system that adjusts your shutters using an app, a handheld remote, or basic voice commands.
- SoftClose™ Louvers with Quick Align™: This system automatically closes the louvers after reaching a predetermined angle with five preset Quick Align™ positions, allowing you to easily align the louvers across multiple panels for a clean look.
Panel Movement Options
The panel movement options include:
- Standard Hinged: Pull the shutters inward to open for a view and maximum ventilation. Pair the standard hinged panels with the front tilt bar for a classic shutter style.
- Sliding Panels: Ideal for sliding glass doors, sliding panels glide smoothly past each other, and the louvers can remain open during movement.
- Bi-Fold Track: This folding operation style is excellent for oversized windows. Panels attach to a top track, and you can hinge up to six panels together.
Frequently Asked Questions About Shutters
Are custom shutters a good investment?
Custom shutters are one of the best investments for your home because they’re the only window covering that can increase its appraisal value. Since shutters are securely mounted to the window frame, many consider them a permanent addition, and you can include them in a home appraisal.
How do I clean my custom shutters?
Here are a few cleaning tips to help maintain your shutters’ appearance:
- Dust lightly on a regular basis.
- Try compressed air or a hairdryer on the cool setting to gently remove dust from certain treatments.
- Use your vacuum’s brush attachment, moving the brush in vertical strokes for a deeper clean.
- Avoid dusting mitts or other magnetic cleaners for best results because they can damage the light-dimming backings.
For best results, please refer to the Hunter Douglas Shutters Care and Cleaning Guide. Hunter Douglas is best known for its quality products that require minimal care and cleaning.
