Types of Window Shutter Frames For Minneapolis Windows

September 22, 2015

When our specialists come to your Minneapolis home for a design consultation, they’ll walk you through the shutter options available - including shutter frames. The louvers of plantation shutters range from 2.5” to 4.5”, giving your home a contemporary look. But it’s the frame that outlines the shutters that gives your window treatment the style statement you’re looking for. No matter what type of windows you have, our team will help you pick the best frame for your home.

Here are the shutter frames available in Minneapolis:

Craftsman Frame

Craftsman Frame

The craftsman is a modern style shutter frame with simple trim that is wider than similar frame styles. It encases the shutter panels with straightforward lines that makes the shutter pop. This is what makes the craftsman shutter trim best for homes that lean toward craftsman style construction.

Decorative Frame

Decorative Frame

The decorative frame is distinct from the craftsman with a slimmer look and more delicate lines. It’s mounted on the outside of the window opening and has a minimalist tone. We’ve seen this decorative shutter trim frequently mounted in classic colonial homes in Minneapolis.

L Frame

L Frame

The L frame can be mounted inside the window opening flat with the wall, or outside the window opening. It gives you clean lines in a small space. This shutter frame defines the shutter panel in a subtle form. The L frame works great in most homes.

Z Frame

Z Frame

The Z frame is a wider shutter trim that involves decorative window casing. The Z frame features a curved face that gives the window a traditional look.
