Louvers for Castle Rock
California shutters and plantation shutters are the same thing: panels of wide, tilting louvers fitted to the window. What sets one apart from another is mostly the louver size, and Castle Rock's homes and sun point to different choices.
Here, about 23 days a year reach 90°F. That's fewer hot days than 65% of the 881 US cities we have climate figures for.
The midday sun climbs to 74° in June and sinks to 27° in December, so the louver angle that blocks it changes with the season.
In Parker, 10 miles away, 25% of homes are apartments or condos, 7 points more than here.

Wide louvers for a view
74% of homes are detached houses with larger windows to the yard. 4½ in louvers mean fewer, wider slats and the most view when they're open, if the opening is deep enough for them to tilt.
When in doubt, 3½ in
The middle size suits most windows and most depths, and it's the one most homes here would choose. The designer checks your depth against the louver you pick.
| Feature | 2½ in | 3½ in | 4½ in |
|---|---|---|---|
| View when open | Least | More | Most |
| Louvers per panel | Most | Fewer | Fewest |
| Depth needed to tilt | Least | More | Most |
| Suits | Small or shallow windows | Most windows | Large, deep windows and doors |
Where our shutters fit
Every Shutter Boys shutter is made from solid American poplar to the measurements you take, then shipped to Castle Rock for you to fit. Whatever you call them, ours come in all three louver sizes.
