The Plantation Shutter Hinge

Have you ever considered the possibility that the unsung hero of the plantation shutter's beauty and success is the simple hinge.  This small piece of metal allows for your plantation shutter to have "swing" and as such, design gravitas.  Think about it - without hinges, plantation shutters would be stationary panels screwed into windows with nothing but a tilt feature.  Much of your shutters charm and function would be lost, if not for the forgotten "hinge"

Additionally, hinges come in a variety of styles which are coordinated to match your shutter's color.  For those with a specific design idea, shutter hinges can be matched with other items in your house, or to simply make a subtle color statement against your shutter's color.  You can even order stainless steel hinges, if your design can handle it.

The picture below will give you a taste of the shutter hinge colors and options available in the industry. By coupling these hinge color choices with your shutter's paint or stain color, hopefully you can imagine how a simple hinge component can become a "statement."

We would love to help you with these design choices. Contact us today for a complimentary consultation, and thanks for your interest in Latreia Blinds and Shutters!
