Exceptional Lake Forest Window Treatments

For decades, people all over Lake Forest and surrounding areas have chosen plantation shutters, blinds or shades for their windows. It’s not hard to understand why–plantation shutters offer all the things someone could want in a window treatment. 

And for years, homeowners in Lake Forest have looked to Sunburst Shutters when they want to put in the highest quality indoor shutters and other window coverings in their spaces. Again, it’s not hard to see why. Sunburst Shutters Chicago has helped revitalize countless Lake Forest homes, offering modern style, skilled craftsmanship, and award-winning shutters with the ease of in-home shopping.

Named after the 1,200+ acre park that runs through it, which in turn was named after President Abraham Lincoln, the Lincoln Park neighborhood is rich in culture, history, and innovation. The neighborhood is home to the Lincoln Park Zoo, the fourth-oldest zoo in the United States. The community also hosts historic cathedrals, DePaul University, the Chicago History Museum, and plenty of restaurants, including the much-beloved Alinea, which is one of the few restaurants worldwide to earn three Michelin stars.

Residents of Lincoln Park love the neighborhood for its bustling retail and restaurant scene, as well as its wealth of outdoor activities, from lakefront beach volleyball to woodland walks. In our many installations of window treatments in Lincoln Park, we’ve seen the plethora of activities that the community has to offer. That’s why we’re dedicated to delivering the highest-quality plantation shutters, shades, and blinds in Lincoln Park. We custom-craft more permanent solutions, so our clients can spend more time grabbing a bite at Pequod’s Pizza or The Wiener’s Circle and less time wondering when they’ll have to replace their window treatments again.

Why Lake Forest Houses Need Interior Shutters

• Shutters are resilient. Relative to other window treatments, shutters last and last. Where a store-bought set of blinds or designer drapes may break, warp or deteriorate in the span of a few years, shutters stand firm over time. With sound construction and heavy-duty material, shutters will be a part of your space for decades.

• Shutters are energy efficient. Admittedly, blinds or shades are able to block a little outside light, but how effective are they at managing the heat levels inside the house? Unless you plan to purchase additional weatherstripping, energy can still pass through your windows without trouble. Solid plantation shutters can greatly reduce that energy movement.

• Shutters are gorgeous. No other window treatment comes close to the timelessness, sophistication, versatility, and wow-factor of interior shutters.

Lake Forest’s Best Faux Wood Shutter: Polywood

For every reason interior shutters are Lake Forest homeowners’ favorite window treatment, Polywood® plantation shutters provide those benefits in spades.

Built from a unique solid engineered compound, Polywood shutters are totally unaffected by chips or cracks, and won’t ever bend or warp. They’re definitely the most durable shutter you can find in Lake Forest. In addition, they’re completely moisture-proof and heat-resistant, so they’ll survive the worst storms.

Polywood shutters can be bought in an array of white and off-white tones, with available wood-like stains for a darker and more expressive tone. Their classic elegance, broad louvers, and clean lines make Polywood shutters a uniquely beautiful part of any home, regardless of the style or era in which it was built.

Our patented Polywood material, with standard weatherstripping that’s custom-fit to your windows, makes Polywood plantation shutters easily the most energy efficient window covering available in Lake Forest. Polywood shutters can prevent up to half of the energy loss through your windows, which means lower HVAC bills for you.

What’s more, Polywood shutters are made right here in the USA.

Get Natural Looks with Lake Forest’s Favorite Wood Shutters

There is not a window treatment available that can offer the same feeling of backstory, character, and richness as natural wood shutters. In Lake Forest, the best wood shutters are Sunburst’s Ovation® wood shutters. While comparable wood shutters tend to be hollow, Ovation wood shutters are constructed from 100% solid teak. That gives you not only the natural beauty only offered by hardwood, but also the assurance that your shutters will keep their looks for years and years.

Ovation hardwood shutters can easily match your existing trim or hardwood floors in your house, too. With over 30 different wood finishes to choose from, there’s nowhere in your house they can’t look fantastic in.

Sunburst also offers reclaimed wood shutters in Lake Forest. Each reclaimed wood shutter is constructed from repurposed lumber from across America, and each individual shutter pane brings its own story and character to your home.
