Custom Shutters
Interior shutters, also called plantation shutters, have wide, adjustable louvers and are set into a custom frame fitted to your window or door. Tilt the louvers to let in light and breeze, close them for full privacy, swing hinged panels open, or stack sliding panels to the side for a variety of options to fit your everyday needs.
At Interior Views Design Center, we have helped homeowners on the Jersey Shore and in the Tristate area choose custom window treatments for more than 40 years at our location in Manasquan. If you're considering shutters for your home, our collection of Hunter Douglas shutters gives you several styles and materials to choose from. They can work well whether you're updating one room or adding window treatments throughout your home.
Hunter Douglas Shutters Near Manasquan, NJ
Choosing the right shutter often comes down to where it will be installed, how the room is used, and the look you want to achieve. Our collection includes a few options, each with its own strengths, giving you several ways to find a shutter that fits both your home and your everyday needs.
Hunter Douglas Heritance® Wood Shutters
If you like the look and feel of real wood, Heritance® Wood Shutters are a great choice. They are made from 100% hardwood harvested from sustainable wood and built for long-term stability and durability with Truemill® dovetail construction. You can select from an array of tailored paint and stain finishes to seamlessly match your home's style. Wood shutters work especially well in living rooms, dining rooms, bedrooms, and other rooms where you want a warm, traditional look.
Hunter Douglas Palm Beach™ Polysatin™ Vinyl Shutters
For areas where moisture and sunlight are part of the equation, Palm Beach™ Polysatin™ Vinyl Shutters are built for the conditions shore homes face every day. Made from a UV-resistant Polysatin™ vinyl compound and reinforced with interior aluminum and resin blocks for bracing, they are guaranteed by Hunter Douglas never to warp, crack, fade, chip, peel, or discolor. That makes them our go-to for bathrooms, kitchens, laundry rooms, and windows that take full afternoon sun.
As the only Hunter Douglas shutter available with PowerView® Automation, you can even tilt the louvers from your phone, set them on a schedule, or use voice control, which is ideal for tall and hard-to-reach windows.
NewStyle® Composite Shutters
Combining the visual appeal of genuine wood with the incredible durability of modern man-made materials, hybrid window solutions offer an affordable, high-performance option. NewStyle® Composite Shutters feature a resilient core wrapped in a durable finish that mimics fine wood grain. The same fine joinery as our hardwood shutters, Truemill® dovetail construction, makes them perfect for busy, active households with children and pets. Their solid construction also makes them easy to maintain, with simple dusting or wiping often all that is needed to keep them looking their best. A smart choice for family rooms, playrooms, and beyond.
Customizable Options
Every custom shutter is built to your measurements. Our team will help you choose the details that suit your windows and your home:
- Louver size: Options range from 2½" to 4½". Modern wide louvers open up more of the view, while narrower louvers suit smaller windows and traditional homes.
- Tilt operation: Choose a classic front tilt rod or a hidden tilt system for a cleaner, uninterrupted look.
- Frames and tracks: Frame styles complement your existing trim, and bi-fold or bypass tracks let shutters work on French doors and sliding glass doors.
- Specialty shapes: Arches, angles, and other custom shapes are available. Learn what to know when selecting arched window treatments.
Shutters also pair beautifully with other treatments. Explore our custom drapery to see how our designers layer shutters with drapes.
Why Choose Plantation Shutters?
Shutters are one of the few window treatments that solve several problems at once. Here is what they bring to a Jersey Shore home:
- Light and privacy in one: Tilt the louvers for soft, filtered light, close them for complete privacy, or open the panels for an unobstructed view.
- Energy efficiency: A solid panel over the glass adds a layer of insulation, and adjustable louvers let you block hot summer sun or welcome winter warmth.
- UV protection: Closed louvers help shield floors, furniture, and artwork from sun fading, which matters in bright coastal rooms.
- Cord-free operation: Shutters tilt with a rod or hidden mechanism, so there are no cords for children or pets to get tangled in.
- Easy upkeep: A quick dusting or a damp cloth cleans them in place. There is nothing to take down or launder.
- A permanent upgrade: Custom-fit and mounted to the window frame, shutters function more like fine millwork than a window covering.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can shutters work with different interior design styles?
Yes. Shutters can work with a wide range of home styles, from traditional and coastal homes to more modern spaces. With different frame styles, louver sizes, colors, and finishes available, you can install an option that fits the look of your home.
What type of shutters are best for a beach or coastal home?
It depends on the room and how much sun and moisture the windows are exposed to. For coastal homes in Manasquan, Point Pleasant, Bay Head, and nearby areas, vinyl shutters can be a good option for windows that get a lot of sunlight or moisture. Wood and composite shutters may work better in other areas of the home.
What type of shutters work well in older homes in Manasquan and Spring Lake?
Custom shutters can be a good fit for older homes because they can be made to suit the size and proportions of the existing windows. For a traditional home in Manasquan or Spring Lake, real wood shutters can complement original trim and other architectural details. Composite options can provide a similar look with added durability.
Can plantation shutters be motorized?
Yes. Palm Beach™ Polysatin™ Vinyl Shutters are available with PowerView® Automation, so you can adjust the louvers by app, remote, schedule, or voice. You can still move the louvers by hand whenever you like.
Do shutters work on French doors and sliding glass doors?
Yes. Shutters can mount directly to French doors, and bi-fold or bypass tracks let shutter panels fold or glide clear of sliding glass doors. For more ideas, see our guide to choosing window treatments for sliding glass doors.
Should I choose shutters or blinds?
Shutters are a permanent, sturdier upgrade that offers full privacy and the option to swing completely open. Blinds cost less and lift fully off the glass, and faux wood blinds are a popular budget-friendly choice for humid rooms. Many homes use both. See how in our post on styling your kitchen with blinds and shutters.
When should I plan shutters during a new build or remodel?
Plan early and measure often. Shutters are measured after windows and trim are installed, but reviewing the plan early lets us check window depth and hardware that can interfere with louvers. Learn more about our design services for new construction and home remodels.
