Are Blinds The Same As Interior Shutters?

Simply put--No. Some may refer to any window product as a blind, interior shutters (also termed plantation shutters) are significantly different. Interior shutters are longer lasting, block out more exterior light and temperature, feature a frame surrounding the window to make them more of a lasting part of your home, and have more comprehensive warranties.
