Question 1

How long does it take to install shutters?

Accepted Answer

Most projects begin with an in-home measure and design confirmation. After your order is finalized, production timelines vary by product and options, and installation is typically completed in one day once your shutters arrive.  Installation can be as little as 2 weeks to up to 10 weeks for specialty shapes where a template is required.

Question 2

Do you handle specialty shapes like arches and angles?

Accepted Answer

Yes. We routinely design and install shutters for arched windows, angled tops, transoms, and other specialty shapes using custom templates to ensure a precise fit.

Question 3

Can I install Norman plantation shutters myself?

Accepted Answer

No. Norman shutters are best installed professionals to ensure proper alignment, smooth operation, and a secure fit. We recommend professional installation to protect your investment and warranty.

Question 4

Do shutters help with insulation and energy efficiency?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Interior shutters add an insulating layer at the window, helping to reduce heat gain in summer and heat loss in winter—especially when fully closed.

Question 5

The best line depends on your window type, budget, design preference, and performance goals. We help you compare materials, louver sizes, and configurations to select the right option.

Accepted Answer

Yes. Shutters are considered a premium, permanent window treatment that can enhance both the aesthetic appeal and perceived value of your home.

Question 9
