Plantation shutters made from wood are available in varying louver sizes: 2.5”, 3.5”, and 4.5”. The louver size Floridians prefer the most for wood shutters is 4.5”. That’s because it gives you the most access to the view, and it’s the easiest to clean.

You can adjust your wood shutters for light and privacy using a tilt rod. Tilt the wooden louvers all the way up to let less light into the room. Tilt them open for more light and view.
