Cooling Down Naturally

The sunny climate we enjoy here has one serious downside – it can get very, very hot. We do
have air-conditioners and fans but may be loath to use them because of the cost both in terms of
money and the impact on the environment.

Preventing the sun from getting into your home, in the first place, is a very effective way to keep
temperatures lower.

Shutters and Blinds

That’s where Brisbane shutters come in. Although traditionally affixed to the outside of your
home, shutters can also make a very attractive feature inside the home as well.

They can be wooden – simply varnished for a natural, warm finish or painted for a more tropical
feel. Either way, they still do a great job of filtering out the direct sunlight whilst still allowing in
enough light and air to leave the room feeling spacious and open.

Shutters are generally louvred and the tilt can be adjusted according to your own particular
tastes.

Shutters are also not restricted to windows – they can be used as doors, cupboard doors and room
dividers. They are particularly useful as room dividers providing complete privacy when closed
and leaving the room feeling open and airy when pulled back.

What Style to Choose?

You can choose hinged shutters, bifold shutters or sliding shutters. The choice will depend on the
look you are going for and how much space you have.

Sliding shutters are ideal for rooms that are small as you don’t need space to swing them. They
do require a space to slide into and this can cause problems as well.

Hinged shutters are good if you have the space for them to swing and they are the more
traditional type.

Bifold shutters are ideal for those areas where you need large shutters, for example, as room
dividers. These are especially good in instances where two hinged shutters would end up being
too big and heavy to swing.

Shutter Maintenance

A big draw when it comes to shutters is that they are simple to maintain and easy to clean. It’s a
simple matter of dusting the blinds regularly and wiping them down every now and then with a
damp cloth.
Blinds also age well and, depending on the material used, are less likely to fade or lose their
shape. Buying quality shutters from a reputable company like Newport Custom Shutters and
Blinds will guarantee a good looking décor feature for years to come.

Newport Custom Shutters and Blinds offer a top quality product. They have perfectly blended
top quality raw materials with state of the art design to ensure that the shutters produced
are superior in form and function.
