Choosing the Right Shutter Louver Size for Your Home

Louver Basics

Whether you are looking for more privacy, better light control, or just a classic interior, plantation shutters have it all. The louvers, or the movable wood blades, in shutters are used to let in or block out light. Simply tilting the louvers will allow you to control how much light enters your room. We offer 5 different louver sizes shown in the photos below.  

How to Choose a Louver Size

Which louver size you choose can be determined by the aesthetic you wish to achieve, the level of light control desired, and the size of your windows. Our most popular sizes are the 2-1/2” and 3-1/2” louvers. Choosing one of these louver sizes will allow you to have fewer louvers and therefore let in more light.

Desiring a more traditional look? Smaller louvers let in less light because there are naturally more of them and may be something you may want to consider.

Visualizing in Your Home

During our no-obligation in-home visit and estimate, we will provide skilled advice on which louver size options would best suit your windows and home aesthetic. We also have full-sized working samples of all the louver sizes and are more than happy to hold them up in your windows.
