Kitchen Shutters and Other Kitchen Window Treatments for Destin

November 30, 2021

Choosing kitchen window treatments in Destin isn’t always easy.  You have to find a treatment that fits your taste and manages sunlight.  However, you also need to manage the humidity and heat from cooking. Use the wrong window covering, and you get stains, warping, and yellowing from food splatters and steam.


Polywood plantation shutters are usually thought of as the ideal kitchen window treatments in Destin. They are attractive, durable, and great at directing natural light. Some homeowners will also propose a lovely roller shade for minimalist decor, since they are effortless to use if you need to open a kitchen window.

For Entertainers And Home Chefs, Faux Wood Kitchen Shutters In Destin Are The Best Option

Polywood® shutters provide just about anything you would want from a kitchen window treatment in Destin. These kitchen shutters work perfectly for cooks and entertaining hosts because:
  • They are moisture-proof. Kitchens are humid places. Boiling pots, simmering skillets, and running dishwashers make steam that can lead to disaster for most window treatments in a kitchen. Polywood shutters are completely moisture resistant and can avoid the warping and yellowing that comes from contact with hot water.


  • They’re simple to clean. Let's face it – kitchens get messy. Food splatters and greasy fingerprints are a piece of cake to wipe off from a faux-wood shutter. Just rub with a damp washcloth to get them spick and span and ready for guests.


  • They look amazing in all decor. The old adage says that all parties end in the kitchen. Thankfully, Polywood’s neutral white lets these kitchen shutters to coordinate with all kitchen styles. So whether you have a Silestone, butcher block, or marble countertop or white, black, natural wood cabinets, your window treatment will blend in perfectly.


  • They can redirect light perfectly. In a kitchen, sunlight can be both good and bad. For example, you like some sun to wake you up in the morning, but there's some glare from the rising sun. With an interior shutter, you are able to tip the louvers and direct the light, so it streams in and doesn’t blind you.

Roller Shades Bring SomeSimplicity To Your Destin Kitchen Window Treatments

Although louvered shutters are the top choice for your Destin kitchen window treatment, they aren’t the sole treatment that works. Some Destin residents prefer a simpler roller shade to complete their kitchen.

Roller shades do provide a few benefits that other kitchen window treatments don’t. For one, they hang nearly against the window and are simple to operate. Simply give them a tug, and they'll rise and lower effortlessly. You can adjust them to any level to prevent glare but also allow for sunlight. And you can purchase a cordless style, so don't be concerned about anything swinging down over the sink when you're rinsing off your dishes.

But mostly, homeowners purchase roller shades due to the myriad of patterns and colors available. If you have a relatively monochromatic kitchen filled with whites and greys, you can choose a vibrant red or brilliant green - perhaps a hue to match your kitchen table linens. If you have black or dark cabinets, you can go with a lighter hue or even a gauzy material that lets in softened light when closed.
