FAQs About Sliding Door Shutters
What shutter materials can I get for my doors?
Sliding door shutters are available in both our hardwood and faux wood shutter materials. Hardwood shutters are the most popular option because of their practicality, durability and classic appearance.
However, if you have a sliding door in the kitchen or any other space where moisture can build up, faux wood shutters offer a waterproof solution.
What colour options are available for these shutters?
Our Hardwood and Faux wood shutters come in a choice of four and two timeless shades respectively, to ensure our classic shutters suit any space.
But don't take our word for it! We offer a free sample service so you can be sure the shade will complement your room perfectly.
Are plantation shutters easy to maintain?
When compared with alternative window dressings such as blinds or curtains, shutters on sliding doors are much easier to maintain. Simply wipe away stains with a damp cloth!
Dusting is also a breeze too with window shutters. Again, simply dab with a light cloth or use a feather duster to keep your shutters looking like new.
