Default Plantation shutters for the sliding door to the lanai

I would appreciate recommendations.
I tried unsuccessfully, this site’s search engine for plantation shutters.
Thank you in advance

Default Plantation shutters for the sliding door to the lanai

We recently had it done and we chose 2 sliding panels each made up of 2 attached panels for the lanai door. There is also a folding option but when opened it stuck out way too far for us.

Oh, we had it done by "Blinds Plus Shutters" salesman Eric Berlin. Very satisfied so far (only been a couple months).

There are several ways these can be configured. I don’t remember who did ours but have seen others done better. Some are 4 panels, some are two panels and some slide and some fold. Ours do not have a framing around them. I prefer the ones that do. Sorry I can’t give you a name but I can tell you some of the things to look for.

Shutter Professionals did ours. They have a system that allows the louvers to stay open when both panels are stacked. We love them.

We used Steve Rydell. (352) 391-8101. He is located in Antrim Dells and only sells Norman Shutters. His prices and work blew everyone out of the water. Do your self a favor. His presentation alone sells his shutters and work.
