Adorning homes for centuries, they bring an unmistakably bright and fresh accent to kitchens, living rooms, and bathrooms. Originally made of wood, when glass was difficult to obtain and much more expensive, shutters were attached to the interior portion of the house. At the time, homes were made with very deep walls so exterior shutters would have been impossible to operate if they couldn\u2019t be reached from the inside. Once advancements in the building industry were made, shutters were relocated to the exterior walls which could now be operated from inside as the depth of the walls wasn\u2019t as extreme.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-10409 lazyload\" alt=\"Plantation-Shutters_edit\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Plantation-Shutters_edit.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"398\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Plantation-Shutters_edit.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Plantation-Shutters_edit-300x198.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/Plantation-Shutters_edit-220x145.jpg 220w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-10410 lazyload\" alt=\"fdcb3db937c5_edit\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/fdcb3db937c5_edit.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"479\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/fdcb3db937c5_edit.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/fdcb3db937c5_edit-300x239.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Fast forward to today and shutters are just as popular as they always have been.

Perfectly designed for a space where both light and privacy is desired, divider rails split the top and bottom of each shutter panel into two sections. Not only does this add to the strength of the panel, but it allows the separated sections to be opened and closed independently of each other. For instance, if you\u2019d prefer light to stream into your home office but are easily distracted by the goings on in the neighborhood, a divider rail will allow you to close the bottom portion of the shutter for privacy and focus, while the louvers on the top can be opened to welcome the sunlight.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-10403 lazyload\" alt=\"DividerRail_edit\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/DividerRail_edit.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/DividerRail_edit.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/DividerRail_edit-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-10416 lazyload\" alt=\"0713130l0_edit\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/0713130l0_edit.jpg\" width=\"600\" height=\"642\" data-sizes=\"auto\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/0713130l0_edit.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.blindsgalore.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/0713130l0_edit-280x300.jpg 280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>With the development of superior performing materials, today\u2019s superstar shutters are very durable and low-maintenance.
