For the budget-conscious, blinds are a temporary window
treatment to cover your windows. Chances are they will deteriorate over time with the
strings snapping and the loops that hold the slats in
place falling apart. And they might be troublesome to clean.
Shades offer a host of
colors and unique patterns, turning your window
into artwork. By effortlessly pulling up the fabric of
the shade, your whole window is exposed and you can see out
onto your Minneapolis neighborhood.
Draperies also offer a wide
variety of color, fabric, and
patterns. They are a traditional choice for a window
treatment. Placing thick panels between the drapes and
the window allows for light and temperature
block-out capabilities. And unlike other window treatments, there’s no rush to clean draperies
for five years.
If you are searching for a window
treatment that lasts over 10 years, saves you money on your energy bills, and looks
exquisite on your windows,
shutters are the choice for your home. Not only are shutters durable, but
they’re also exquisite and energy efficient.
As a matter of fact, Polywood shutters insulate up to 70%
better than an equivalent wood shutter. That’s
energy savings you can’t get with any other
window treatment.
No other window treatment gives you control
over privacy and light as plantation shutters do. And with their large
louvers, Polywood plantation shutters give your house a clean modern feel whether they’re closed or open.
