Care and Maintenance Tips for Long-Lasting Results

With just a little attention, your plantation shutters will stay looking beautiful for years to come.

• Dust regularly: Use a microfiber cloth or feather duster to remove surface dust. This helps maintain their appearance and prevents buildup.
• Wipe with a damp cloth: For deeper cleaning, use a slightly damp cloth to wipe the louvers. Avoid using harsh chemicals or excess water.
• Inspect for wear: Periodically check hinges, magnets, and tilt rods. Tighten or adjust as needed to maintain smooth operation.
• Avoid prolonged moisture: While composite shutters are moisture-resistant, keeping all shutters dry helps extend their life. Use exhaust fans in bathrooms to reduce humidity.
• Keep them open occasionally: Opening shutters regularly prevents them from becoming stiff. It also allows for airflow and sunlight to reach the window.
• Use gently: Avoid slamming or forcing the louvers. Proper handling goes a long way in maintaining their function and appearance.
