Café Shutters Offer Your Room For Stunning Looks

A half shutter gives you privacy on the bottom and leaves the top open for light and view. However, with the large louvers of plantation shutters, is it the right look for your St. George windows?

The café or half-shutter look works great with the large louvers of a plantation shutter – if it’s designed the right way. That’s where the divider rail comes in.

The Divider Rail Solution

A divider rail gives your plantation shutters a completed, fully finished, effect on the window. At the same time, it lets you close the bottom louvers for privacy and adjust the top ones for light. Adjusting the top louvers is convenient during the day when the sun is stopping you from watching TV. And a 3.5” or 4.5” louver will almost disappear when opened flat, giving you a good deal of space to look through. So, you won’t have to worry about losing any of your view.

In the end, it’s a style choice – whether you want the look of a half shutter or that of a full plantation shutter with a divider rail.

How Are Café Style Shutters Designed?

We start by measuring the length and width of your window, marking where it’s best to stop the shutters – for that café look. Then we go back to our store and order your hand-fashioned plantation shutters to fit those specifications – whether a divider rail is included or not. Utilizing a combination of advanced computer software and custom design templates based on your windows, we design and make your plantation shutters in the café style – and apply the finishes and colors of your choosing.

Our professional installers will mount the café shutters on your windows. They’ll make sure the louvers can be opened and the divider rail – if included – is functional.
