If you are planning on putting the shutters across the glass doors and glass panels to the lanai as we were, you may want to check to determine how much sun light you will be blocking while the shutters are in the folded 'open' position. Rick at 48 Hr Blind Factory demonstrated to us that we would lose considerable day light because the plantation shutters would block the glass panels on either side when folded open to access the sliding glass doors. This may or may not be a problem for you, but Rick can demonstrate this much better than I can explain it here. He saved us considerable money and grief, because we probably would not have been happy with the results had we proceeded with purchasing and installing plantation shutters.
