Aluminium Shutters - Highlight Your Home's Street AppealPosted by Online Plantation Shutters on April 14th, 2016 Aluminium is proving to be an cost effective and attractive option to improve the street appeal of your house. Aluminium shutters replace blinds and curtains to provide sun control and privacy. Aluminium shutters look great both inside and outside the house. The advantages of using aluminium shutters are:
Timber plantation shutters have a weak point where the blade pivots on the stile which is unlikely to last very long when exposed to full weather. Some shutter retailers sell plantation shutters in Western Red Cedar for external use, sometimes even carrying a one year warranty but the reality is that they will deteriorate over time. The best solution is to use aluminium shutters for this purpose, where their inherent strength and low maintenance makes them idea. Photo imaged timber grain finishes are available on aluminium that are suitable for external exposure (should a timber look be required) as well as a selection of powder coated colour options.
