Short Windows, Recess Depth, Window Size
Various windows can work with varying slats for custom shutters in Toronto. For example, a small short window with limited recess depth can use a 2 ½-inch slat because it looks great and introduces just enough sunlight into the room. On the other hand, 3 ½-inch slats look better for modern interior-style properties and introduce ample sunlight into every room. Therefore, the larger your windows, the larger your slats can become.
Room Light Levels
A small window may seem to get "overkill" lighting results from large-slat custom shutters in Toronto. However, if you don't prefer high light room light levels, larger slats can give you better lighting control because smaller slats can introduce much higher light levels. On the other hand, large windows that need higher light levels can still look amazing with smaller slats.
Window Direction
You have a good idea about which direction the sun rises and introduces the highest light level in your property. Using larger slats in that position gives you better light control and even complete light blockage when you need it.
Slat Prices
Lastly, slat sizes greatly affect the total custom shutter prices to pay. While it sounds intimidating to take on higher investments for slats, you'll surely have the best blinds capable of introducing the best outcome for your interior lighting and aesthetic needs.
