An Open View

/in

If the light in a room needs to be just right, you can pull the drapes or raise the shade to adjust the view. If you have indoor shutters, you might be stuck with two options – open or closed. But, with Marco Shutters, you have endless control of the view. That’s because our hidden tilt rod provides effortless adjustment so that you can open the shades a little bit or a lot.

For privacy, this system can’t be beat. Tilting the louvers at just the right angle lets in the light you need. It still prevents prying eyes from seeing that you’re watching “Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter” for the fifth time.

Best of all, the hidden tilt rod is available on all of our shutters. Whether you are ordering bypass shutters for your patio door, shutters for wide windows, bay window shutters or sidelight shutters for your front door, this lift system is standard equipment. Once you adjust them to the perfect position, the louvers stay in place without slipping or shifting.

The classic look of Marco Shutters never goes out of fashion, whether they are painted or stained. Because they fit close to the window frame, they’re also effective insulators against cold drafts. Best of all, Marco Shutters require virtually no maintenance and have a 20-year guarantee.

Why wait? Consultation and measuring are free. Call (402) 778-5818 today and get the classic, adjustable look of Marco Shutters.

A Little Smack Talk

/in

What do you hear every time you close your sliding glass door? Is it the clatter of vertical blinds smacking the glass? As the weather warms up, you’re going to want to open those doors again. It’s time to re-think the window covering for your sliding glass door. Marco comes to your rescue with custom shutters for sliding glass doors.

Our bypass plantation shutters are custom made to eliminate clatter and smack. Unlike noisy (and outdated) vertical blinds, our shutters fit tightly against the glass. Secured at the top and bottom, these shutters will never clatter as the door is opened or closed.

A header conceals the shutter rails, giving a clean and finished look. Best of all, our patio door shutters can be stained or painted to match your decor.

Available in a variety of louver widths and many species of hardwoods, we can further customize the look of your patio door shutters. We build your shutters in our own factory and we use all American materials.

If you’re ready for spring without noise of your old window coverings, call Marco Shutters today at (402) 778-5818. We offer free measuring and consultation services.

The Wonders of White

/in

White has mystical properties. It allows you to accent the texture of items in a room. It acts as a neutral balance for any color, and can act as a counterpoint to dark colors, providing contrast. Far from being a stark color, white can take on a warm feeling when paired with natural textures. Many say it’s the perfect choice for accenting any style – whether you are looking for classical, tropical, contemporary or formal design.

In these photos, we show white painted shutters lending an elegant air when paired with drapes. The arch-top window is a perfect example of classical design paired with contemporary furniture. Bypass shutter patio doors ad a crisp look to a kitchen with a walk-out patio. And finally, French Doors get an upscale look from white shutters.

One major paint manufacturer has 50 shades of white, but we focus on the top eight shades in our custom white palette.
