In Lexington most windows and doorways, particularly those with an arch design, can be covered with shutters made of real wood or faux wood. They work wonders as room separators and closet doors. Particularly well-made imitation plantation shutters can add to the longevity of the home and its resale value. Depending on its size and intended use, plantation shutters require various types of hinge and track systems. We will look at three of the most typical.
Standard (Butt) Hinge System Most interior window shutters can be utilized with the typical butt hinge system (those with openings from six inches to 120 inches high). It makes it possible for the shutters to fold out or open from one side. To clean or refinish, the hinge pin can be taken off the mount.
Double-fold Track System When plantation shutters are utilized as sliding glass door covers or as closet doors with two panels that are hinged together and fold up next to one another, this system is used. If interior window shutters are too large for the typical hinge system, a bi-fold track system is an excellent alternative. From 24 to 192 inches wide and 20 to 120 inches height, it can fit window and door openings. The shutters may move and fold open thanks to a bi-fold track system.
System of bypass tracks The plantation shutters that are employed as a room divider or as a closet door with sliding panels from the left and right function best with this system. In addition, window, and door openings between 24 and 192 inches wide and 20 and 120 inches high can be accommodated by the bypass track system.
Colors of Hinge To complement the hues of most imitation shutters, hinges are frequently offered in neutral white and white-toned tints. They come in stainless steel, brass, and bronze as well. Manufacturers of plantation shutters include the hinge or track system in their shutters. To guarantee that they are placed properly, it is better to have a professional do it. The cost of high-quality plantation shutters is significant. They should be fitted properly, of course. Most people cannot or should not attempt to do this undertaking on their own. The type of hinge or track system your shutters employ should still be known, though, in case a component needs to be changed in the future. But, well maintained plantation shutters, especially imitation plantation shutters, will not need any component repair.
