Do Shutters Reduce Noise? & Other FAQs

To give you an overview of shutters and their features, our window treatment specialists are here to answer a few commonly asked questions about them:

• How do shutters reduce noise? – Because they sit tight against the window when closed, shutters serve as a highly effective sound, light and air barrier. Well-crafted shutters made from thick materials are particularly ideal for noiseproofing a home, especially when paired with double-paned windows.
• Will shutters protect my privacy? – Shutters can absolutely be used for privacy preservation in any room. Along with keeping your home quiet, they’ll solve concerns about gazes coming in from outside when the louvers are positioned all the way down or up.
• Do shutters come in different varieties? – Yes! They can be made of genuine hardwood, or from highly realistic looking faux wood to ensure their suitability in high-moisture environments like the bathroom or kitchen. Either way, you’ll get all the aforementioned benefits and add beauty to your home.
