Plantation Shutters For High Ceiling Windows

On the matter of high ceiling windows, the more convenient, the better. That’s why plantation shutters ought to be one of your first choices for a high window treatment. Most times the first question about window treatments for a window high up on a wall is “How will I operate it?” With shutters, that’s almost never a concern, since it’s typical to have the louvers set at a single, perfect angle permanently, so just the right amount of light is let in while also maintaining the privacy you need.

If regular louver movement is necessary, you won’t need to break out the step stool. We’ll offer a telescoping pole to move the tilt rod, giving you easy control over the lighting. And after you’ve adjusted the shutter, the pole telescopes down for easy storage until you need it again.

Another stressor which is common with high ceiling window treatments is keeping them clean, just one more area in which plantation shutters shine. Due to their angled construction, material, and color, Polywood® plantation shutters don’t require cleaning as frequently as other window treatments. And when the time does come to clean, the louvers and frame can easily be wiped with a duster, without moving or taking the shutters down.

All of these features, combined with plantation shutters’ unrivaled energy efficiency, make for a superb fit for high ceiling windows.
