Sliding Plantation Shutters Melbourne
Cover Sliding Doors with Sliding Shutters
Sliding plantation shutters are a type of window covering that consists of one or more panels that slide horizontally on a track. They are often used in larger sliding windows or patio sliding doors or stacker doors , where their sliding design allows for easy access to the window or door.
The panels of sliding shutters are typically wider than those of traditional shutters. This means that they can cover larger windows without the need for multiple panels. When the shutters are fully closed, they provide excellent light control, privacy, and insulation for the room.
To operate sliding shutters, you simply need to slide the panels along the track to open or close them. You may need close one shutters’s louver blades before you push depending clearance you set between front and back shutters.
Sliding shutters can be made from a variety of materials, including wood, vinyl, or composite materials. These shutters come in a range of colors and finishes to match your decor and can be customized to fit a wide range of window sizes and shapes.
It’s important to note that sliding shutters when they are fully open, unlike the bi-fold shutters,would not give you full view behind.

As such, it’s always a good idea to ask technician option as wood shutters normally can be made up to 900mm each panel, and pvc no more than 800mm. The limitation may have impact how you shutters looks.
