Shutters have been used since the Greek times. However not many people know and use shutters in their homes. People continue using net curtains for privacy. There are a number of wall coverings you can use for your home including curtains and blinds but easy DIY shutters beat them all.

Why Easy DIY Shutters?

Easy DIY shutters have some unique properties not found in curtains and blinds. First off, they are the best in offering privacy.

Besides, plantation shutters come in a variety of colors to match your home. They are a great source of insulation against heat and cold for your home. Though shutters are not the easiest window coverings to clean, they come handy for large windows compared to other options like blinds which are not easy to remove and wash.

Measuring your Windows
Shutters are easy to install but only with good measurements. It is easy to measure your window with only a tape measure. Though most windows have the same size, they may not be exact rectangles/squares and thus the need to measure them before ordering shutters. To easily measure your window, take a tape measure and measure the height and the width of the window at three places. For window height, measure the left, the middle and the right side of the window. For window width, measure the bottom, the middle and the top. Of the three measurements for both height and width, submit the smallest measurement while ordering. Once submitted the company selling shutters will make necessary deductions to make installation easy.
