  2. You can never ask a dumb question. So, there is no need for people to feel ridiculous when they ask how to open and close their plantation shutters. Considering how frequently people arise question about it. Here is how to open and close your home's plantation shutters correctly.

  3. Utilizing plantation shutters to open and close A shutter panel that is hinged inside the shutter frame and a frame that is affixed to your window opening permanently make up a set of plantation shutters. When the shutters are fitted, magnets are put into your shutter frame to hold the plantation shutter panels in place. It shutter panel is hinged into the shutter frame, allowing each to swing open entirely with the simple pull of the panel.

  4. Simply slide each shutter panel back towards the window to close them. The shutter panels for our Plywood shutters should come together in the middle to guarantee that the weather-stripping is interlocked. One shutter panel must close before the other can if you have several shutter panels. By examining the edges of each shutter panel and observing how they fit together, you may quickly determine which shutter closes first.

  5. You will typically hear an audible "snap" when you close the shutters because the magnets are catching each other. You might have a bad magnet if you do not hear the sound and your shutters will not stay closed even after you close them properly. If so, professionals prefer to replace any damaged or defective magnets on shutters.

  6. Shutter Louvers that Open and Close First things first: shutter louvres, which are the slats that make up the shutters, are closed separately from the shutters themselves. Now that the complexities are out of the way, operating your shutters' louvres is a rather simple process.

  7. Most Plantation shutters contain a tilt rod, a short rod that runs down the middle of the shutter and is attached to each louvre by a tiny staple. Your shutter louvres may be easily opened and closed by pulling up or down on the tilt rod. A few things are exceptions. The mechanism that regulates the louvres is often buried below the louvres or in the case of some shutters, it is dubbed a "invisible tilt rod" or "hidden tilt rod." For the majority of these, all you need to do is simply grab one louvre and tilt it; the others will do the same!

  8. Like shutter magnets, a tilt rod or tilt rod staple could be defective or broken.
