Farewell Outdated Window Treatments For Entry Door Sidelights In Fort Lauderdale, FL!

Your front door is one of the first things a guest notices about your Fort Lauderdale house as they’re knocking. Glass sidelights add to the beauty of the entry door. But, they take away from your home’s privacy. Say hello to window shutters. These window fashions are a perfect solution for the sidelights on your entry door.

 

Many Fort Lauderdale residents have opted for traditional window treatments for sidelights, such as shades and blinds. But there’s a more contemporary option: entry door sidelight shutters.

 

Shades and blinds could be the window treatments that come to mind when it comes to sidelights. You can find them in home improvement stores in sizes that approximately fit your entry door sidelights. And you’re familiar with how to install them and open and close them.

 

However sidelight shades and blinds come with a few concerns to think about before buying them. First, they are known to sway any time the door is open or shut, when the wind rattles the strips against the glass. This creates unwanted noise. One way to fix that is to tie them down at the bottom. But this can potentially change the look and have little effect on reducing the noise. Second, shades and blinds offer privacy but come up short in temperature control. The fragile material fails to insulate against the hot or cold outdoor conditions. And third, shades and blinds don’t have the custom look that impresses your guests as they walk in through the front door. Plantation shutters do.

 

 

Plantation shutters are the modernized window treatment you’ve been searching for in Fort Lauderdale. Built from basswood or wood polymer, shutters for entry door sidelights are installed on the door’s frame while letting the louvers move freely. Now opening and closing the entry door does not result in any noise.

 

When the louvers are closed all the way, plantation shutters offer ultimate temperature control and privacy. Simply adjust the louvers with a tilt rod to let in more of the scenery and the sunshine. And the louvers of Polywood® plantation shutters deflect 30° of temperature and decrease airflow by up to 45%.

 

The elegance of plantation shutters for sidelights is more than energy savings. With a variety of wood stains, louver sizes, frame styles, and a paint matching program, you can finally the modernized touch you’ve been looking for. Our professionals assist you in deciding on custom window shutters for your entry sidelights. And we’ll install them to fit your sidelights flawlessly.
