Do You Need Shades or Shutters?
For many, choosing window treatments for your home often comes down to two categories — shades or shutters. Where both are good, they can't typically share the window space, pushing the decision for what is best for you and your home into your lap.
For our team at All About Blinds, this is one of our favorite problems, as there are no bad solutions! Whether you fall in love with the soft light diffusion of shades or can't go without the timeless elegance of shutters, you're in a win-win situation.
Hunter Douglas Shutters
When deciding on whether you need shades or shutters, you first have to flesh out the aesthetic and functional benefits you want out of a window treatment. We broke down a few major ones below:
- Cost: Hunter Douglas shutters are an excellent addition to your home and tend to be more expensive than many shades. However, this shouldn't intimidate you when it comes to your budget! Hunter Douglas shutters are available in genuine, alternative, and hybrid wood materials across a wide variety of budgets.
- Window Shape: Do you have uniquely shaped windows in your home? Not a problem. Hunter Douglas shutters can be custom-cut to fit nearly any window shape.
- Light Control: Due to their thickness, shutters offer premium light control and room darkening. This makes them excellent for bedrooms and media rooms. However, since shutters are made from solid materials, you will not achieve light filtering from these window treatments.
- Noise Control: Once again, thanks to their thickness, shutters can help reduce outside noise pollution to create a relaxing atmosphere in your home.
- Styles: Hunter Douglas shutters come in a wide range of slat colors, stains, and unique woodworking styles that elevate any window in your home. From rich, dark wooden colors to neutral whites, Hunter Douglas shutters are versatile and stunning.
Hunter Douglas Shades
Shutters do sound pretty great, but shades have a lot of things going for them as well:
- Cost: Shades are mainly considered "middle of the road" regarding budgets. They are less expensive than shutters but a little more expensive than blinds. With a wide variety of Hunter Douglas shades, we can help you find the perfect style that fits your budget requirements.
- Window Shape: A traditional window treatment, shades can also be custom fit to a variety of window treatments in your home, including angles, arches, bay windows, skylights, sliding glass doors, and more.
- Light Control: Shades are notorious for providing beautifully filtered light and various opacities so you can achieve your perfect levels of sun, shade, or privacy. You can even add optional liners to several Hunter Douglas offerings to customize your experience even more.
- Noise Control: Depending on their thickness and if you decide to layer them, shades can improve your home's acoustics and reduce outside noise for a quiet home.
- Styles: Available in various patterns, fabrics, and styles, Hunter Douglas shades allow you to spread your creative wings as wide as you wish to create the perfect look in your home.
