This guide is focused on securing wooden sliding shutters, also known as plantation shutters. One of the most common issues with wooden shutters is having a loose louver when the tilt bar and louver become detached. This is often due to forcefully opening and closing the shutters, which causes them to wear out over time and break loose. Follow this guide to give you a step by step procedure for an easy fix to this problem as it requires minimal equipment. Solving this problem will give you peace of mind knowing that you are protecting your privacy when the shutters are closed and also allow for even sunlight to enter indoors when the shutters are open.
