How Much Are Plantation Shutters In Denver?

November 21, 2016

Before choosing plantation shutters for your window treatment project, you’ll most likely have questions regarding how they work, how they’ll look, and what the price will be. Don’t worry, these interior shutters look gorgeous and will add comfort to your living spaces. However, pricing can vary and several factors impact shutter costs in Denver. Knowing about these factors and collaborating with an experienced shutter installer will help you receive the most accurate shutter price estimate.

What Impacts Plantation Shutter Costs In Denver?

Your Denver home is one-of-a-kind, and so is your shutter installation project. Since every installation is different, there’s no single answer to the question, “How much are plantation shutters?” Instead, sit down with your window treatment specialist to customize your ideal interior shutters and explore how your choices will impact their cost. Here are a few factors that can alter total shutter costs.

The Shutter Material

Plantation shutters are crafted from natural hardwood or wood composites. The level of quality will fluctuate for both options. To illustrate, you can buy builder-grade faux wood shutters, but you’ll enjoy all the perks of interior shutters if you choose a superior treatment like Polywood® shutters. While the initial shutter cost is higher, top-tier Polywood shutters endure for decades and offer outstanding energy efficiency and lower utility bills. 

Real wood shutters also differ in cost. Ask your shutter installer how their wood shutters are constructed and thier expected lifespan. Wood shutters are a little less durable than engineered wood, so you’ll want to know you’re getting a solid value if you prefer the traditional look of wood. 

The Size And Shape Of Your Windows

Typically, interior shutter prices are based on square footage, so more expansive window shutters will inevitably carry a higher cost than ones on small windows. Having the approximate measurements of your windows can assist you in generating a rough estimate, but don’t get too concerned about recording measurements. Your installer will take precise measurements during your consultation. 

Windows with unique shapes may also elevate the cost compared to standard square or rectangular windows, as they need more time and effort to match the unique angles and dimensions. Uniquely shaped windows might also require additional installation work, based on the state of your existing window frame. But keep in mind, a stunning custom shutter on your hexagon or circular window is worthwhile when you see how it accentuates the window shape rather than hiding it.

Other Ways To Customize

A few other variables will influence your shutter cost, such as your frame style, the finish, or extras like divider rails. These options enable you to design truly custom shutters to accommodate your living space and particular goals. As you work with your consultant, they’ll help you understand how these extra features affect your shutter costs.
