Plantation Shutters in a Bathroom
Shutters are a modern and timeless addition to the home and can be used in just about any room. Are they a good choice for the bathroom, however? Let’s explore and discover the possibilities…
Traditionally, shutters were conventionally manufactured from wood alone, which did not always hold up very well in humid spaces such as the bathroom. As a result, some have been quite sceptical about their place in modern bathrooms. Today, however, innovation and design make the use of contemporary shutters a stylish reality in any bathroom.
Specialised timber coatings and aluminium shutters are not only ideal in humid conditions, but they have been specifically designed to remain in top condition and also look amazing to add to the overall look of your modern bathroom.
Offering durability, privacy and light control, shutters are the perfect window treatment in any sized bathroom. A small guest loo will benefit from the modern, sleek design of a contemporary shutter, while a master bathroom will grow in elegance with a wall of gorgeous shutters as a feature in this space.
Furthermore, shutters are easy to maintain and clean – and their sleek design ensures that they will never go out of fashion. For a classic or modern look, shutters offer all the benefits to enhance your look and ensure a well-maintained and sophisticated bathroom.
Can Plantation Shutters® be used in bathrooms?
Plantation Shutters® are an ideal solution for bathrooms in that they are perfectly suited for a damp environment and the ease of use (by simply opening the louvres to allow light and air in, or angling the louvres down to provide privacy) allows them to be a very functional and stylish window covering.
Plantation Timber Shutters® are perfectly suitable for a bathroom with high moisture levels as we are using solid timber with a polyurethane coating and this will work perfectly if the shutters are not in direct contact with water (ie showers).
In direct water area (ie showers), we would recommend the Plantation Aluminium Shutters® which carry a 10 year guarantee, and if security is also required, we would recommend the aluminium Plantation Security Shutters®, which carry a 12 year guarantee. Both are 100% suitable for use in a bathroom and / or shower.
Please see the gallery and choose the “Bathroom Shutters” in the list box to see a variety of timber and aluminium Plantation Shutters installed in bathrooms and in showers.
