Customize Your Shutters with Craftsman Shutter Frames in Dover
A misconception we hear occasionally from Dover homeowners is that “all shutters look the same.” Let’s eliminate any misconception – those claims couldn’t be further from the truth.
Many people aren’t aware of the number of options you have when it comes to choosing plantation shutters in Dover, and what kind of impact those options might have. One of the most important of those options is the style of shutter frame you pick.
Dover Custom Shutter Frames
The options available to you for shutter frames will depend on:
-
The style of your window.
-
The depth of the window jamb.
-
Whether you need to have an inside or outside mount.
-
Your own personal taste and design.
A few of our shutter frames are offered only in certain materials, like our Polywood® faux wood shutters, a few are only able to work on an inside or outside mount of a window, and some will have a look that may blend in perfectly with your existing trim, like our Craftsman frame shutters, perfect for Craftsman style homes and offered exclusively by Sunburst.
Let’s take a look at some of the most commonly picked shutter frames for Dover homeowners.
Craftsman Frame Shutters - You can’t watch House Hunters for more than 5 minutes without seeing Craftsman design. This Sunburst-exclusive frame was built especially for Craftsman style houses and similar designs. A Craftsman frame offers a clean and simple look, so no part of your home looks out of place compared to the rest. If getting back to your Craftsman roots is your desire, this is your shutter frame. Currently available in Polywood and reclaimed wood shutters only.
L-Frame Shutters - An L-frame is possibly the least complex and most functional type of shutter frame. They have a smooth, modern look, and are usually the easiest to work around if you have a unique window shape. The L-frame can be used as both an outside and inside mount, if you’d like to keep your existing window trim, and is available in every single one of our shutters.
Z-Frame Shutters - Z-frames are a common choice because they give you a stylized, elegant look on your window, much like crown or bass molding. The name “Z-frame” comes from the shape of its exterior, which is installed on an inside mount of a window jamb, but wraps around to the outside in a “Z” shape. That wrapping shape means it can substitute for window trim if your windows don’t have any existing trim. Z-frames are available in every single one of our shutters.
Decorative Frame Shutters - A decorative frame delivers on the style front. With lots of texture and an elegant shape, this frame works best for windows without any trim, or if you want to cover your existing trim. Decorative frames are available in Polywood faux wood and Ovation hardwood shutters.
