Yes. Like most external options, plantation shutters are straightforward to clean and maintain. The size and shape of the slats make it easy to get in to all areas for a quick and thorough clean. Loose dirt and dust can be simply removed with a vacuum, but if they ever get caked in filth it’s time to use a cloth, some elbow grease and a touch of white vinegar. No matter what material your plantations are made of, be wary of using cleaning chemicals. This can be detrimental to your shutters over time. Where in doubt, always refer to the manufacturer’s recommendations. If you’re considering installing new plantation shutters, get in touch with us at TT Shutters & Shading.

For outdoor shutters, aluminum and natural timber are two of the most suitable materials for a few reasons. They’re strong and stable, have a decent lifespan – if cared for properly – and their painted surfaces are less prone to peeling and delamination. PVC is also a common material for outdoor shutters, but with a lower price tag comes a lot of compromises. They’re not as durable, will usually degrade quicker over time and can emit volatile organic compounds (VOCs) which can cause irritation.
