Yes, shutters are the most effective window covering when it comes to blocking out natural light. When closed they provide a brilliant level of darkness to a room, although slight tolerance gaps are required for the smooth functioning of your shutters so bear in mind this can cause small amounts of light bleed at the edges.
Choosing larger louvres for your shutters means there are fewer gaps for light to travel through. You can also layer shutters with a pair of curtains or a Roman blind. The pairing not only looks great, but can be extremely effective in blocking out light completely.

Condensation occurs when warm, moist air comes into contact with a cold surface, causing the moisture in the air to condense into water droplets. Shutters themselves do not typically cause condensation, however condensation can occur on the surface of shutters if there are significant temperature differences between the indoor and outdoor environments so make sure your room is properly ventilated by opening windows. Shutters are really easy to wipe clean if condensation does occur. Our easy to follow guide will show you how.
