Reduce Noise and Enjoy Peaceful Living with Plantation Shutters

With their solid construction, plantation shutters absorb sound efficiently to diminish unwanted exterior noise in a home. Closing the louvres muffles the din from traffic, neighbors, and other disturbances for blissfully quiet interiors.

Plantation shutters feature adjustable slats that tilt open to let breezes flow or shut to block light and sound. The density of the basswood or cedar shutter material helps deaden noise when closed. Optimal insulation results when shutters seal tightly within window casings.

Why Plantation Shutters Excel at Noise Reduction

Material Density

• Solid natural wood construction is sound absorbing
• Basswood/cedar density deflects rather than amplifies
• Prevents echoes that magnify loudness

Airtight Installation

• Shutter panels fit snugly into window frames
• Closed louvres form a formidable sound barrier
• No gaps for noise penetration when fully shut

Window Vibration Dampening

• Snugly installed panels reduce window reverberation
• Glazing doesn’t rattle in the frame as with blinds
• Sturdiness prevents panels or louvres from rattling

Peaceful Ambiance Promoted

• Traffic sounds and noisy neighbors get muted
• Ideal for home offices, bedrooms and relaxation spaces
• Cocoon of serenity and silence when fully closed

Plantation shutters reduce unwanted noise intrusion while adding style and adjustable light control – resulting in tranquil, peaceful living environments.
