Adding Custom Shutters to Your Bathroom

At Signature Shutters & Blinds, we craft our own specialty shutters in the Dayton, OH, area. We can help you find the right shutters for your bathroom, whether you’re just moving in and need window coverings or you’re undergoing a bathroom remodel.

Here’s a closer look at some of the advantages of adding shutters to your bathroom:

• Improved light control: Adjust the louvers to let light enter without sacrificing privacy or to shut it out completely.
• Enhanced energy efficiency: Shutters have their own frame, which helps reduce cracks and air flow at the window. The wooden louvers are also naturally insulating, improving energy efficiency and maintaining a consistent temperature.
• Increased privacy: Enjoy your view while cleaning or allow natural light to spill into the hallway by opening the louvers or closing them quickly for better privacy.
• Improved security: The thick wooden louvers and secure frame make these window treatments incredibly durable.
• Enhanced noise reduction: Wooden louvers help block outside noise, allowing for peaceful bubble baths or a relaxing shower.
• Increased durability: Thanks to their exceptional durability, shutters can remain in good condition with minimal maintenance and care for decades.
• Boosted curb appeal: The visual appeal of shutters enhances the appearance of your home and increases its value.

At Signature Shutters and Blinds, we craft your shutters uniquely for your home and style. One way we do that is by taking accurate measurements of each individual window where you’re getting our custom-made shutters, accounting for every side and angle. Even if you think you know the measurements of your windows, as your home settles, it shifts, which may cause doors and windows to change positions slightly. Measuring allows us to ensure your shutters will fit perfectly on the first try.

Aesthetic customization is where the fun begins. You can select paint and stain colors that complement your home’s interior design. Whether you want a dark wood stain or a pale gray paint, we can work with you to accommodate your needs. We can also assist with color matching to ensure you receive the exact color you want and that it appears as you intended in your bathroom.

Other ways to customize the specialty shutters for your bathroom include:

• Choosing panel styles: For your bathroom, we recommend full-length panels that cover the entire window or double-hung panels that allow you to operate the top half of the shutters independently of the bottom, rather than café-style shutters.
• Selecting louver sizes: Choose from 2.5-inch, 3.5-inch, or 4.5-inch louvers to adapt the amount of light you want to let in.
• Picking tilt styles: The tilt bar is what adjusts the louvers. It can be in the front or hidden in the back; hidden tilt bars are easier to clean, too.

In a bathroom, high temperatures and moisture fill the room, so it’s essential to take care of your interior shutters properly. Some of our tips include:

• Drying them after baths and showers to maintain their appearance and durability.
• Turning on the bathroom fan during and after bathing to reduce the humidity.
• Dusting them when you do your regular bathroom cleaning.
