Baltimore Cafe Shutters Give Your Home A Unique Look
Café shutters (also known as half-height shutters) can completely change the look of your kitchen, eating space, or in-home bar. Café shutters put the stunning louvers and elegant looks of Baltimore plantation shutters on the lower half of windows, with open space above to allow light in.
But Why Café Shutters?
Café shutters aren’t just a half set of shutters, though. They’re a complete shutter product in their own right, designed to let in a certain amount of light all the time, while at the same time giving you privacy. This makes them awesome partners for tall or high-wall windows in your home. They also work perfectly in rooms that can make beautiful use of natural light like the dining room, living room, or the kitchen.
Café shutters can easily pair with several other window treatments, in case you’d prefer the top half of your window to be covered. Pair natural wood café shutters with an earth-toned valance for that cozy café feel, or pair white faux wood cafe shutters with some solid drapes for a modern and elegant look. There are many possibilities when you can combine natural light, classic plantation shutters, and your imagination.
You might be wondering, “Should I just install a full set of shutters on my window?” There’s not really a right or wrong answer to this question, because each home is different. Ask your Sunburst Shutters sales rep for help choosing the perfect fit for your windows
But if you want the best of both full plantation shutters and cafe style shutters. That’s where divider rail shutters come in.
Divider Rail Shutters Offer The Best of Both Worlds
With divider rail plantation shutters you get the full frame of a normal set of window shutters, with an extra feature. On most shutters, each louver will adjust together from top to bottom. Divider rail shutters have two moving halves, meaning that you can adjust the bottom half of your louvers without adjusting the top, and vice-versa.
With divider rail shutters you get all the benefits of café shutters, with none of the drawbacks. You can fully close your shutters for privacy, temperature and light control. And when you adjust the louvers to lay horizontally, they’re barely noticeable, giving you that same café shutter look if and when you need it.
