Your Montopolis home deserves window treatments that work as hard as you do. Our custom plantation shutters don’t just look good—they cut your cooling costs by blocking that intense Texas sun while giving you complete control over light and privacy.
You get shutters built specifically for your windows, installed by professionals who’ve been perfecting their craft for over a decade. No gaps, no guessing, no settling for “close enough.”
The result? Lower utility bills, better sleep, and windows that actually enhance your home’s value instead of just covering them up.
A Plus Shutters & Shades brings ten years of construction experience right to your Montopolis doorstep. We’re not just window covering installers—we’re craftsmen who understand how Austin’s climate affects your home.
We’ve been serving Arlington, Fort Worth, Dallas, and the greater Austin area long enough to know what works and what doesn’t. Our Texas-made shutters are built to handle everything from scorching summer heat to those unexpected winter freezes.
Every installation comes with the backing of a company that’s earned its reputation one perfectly fitted shutter at a time.
First, we come to your home for precise measurements. Not estimates, not “close enough”—exact measurements that ensure your shutters fit perfectly every time.
Next, our craftsmen build your shutters using quality materials designed for Texas weather. Each shutter is custom-made for your specific windows, not mass-produced and forced to fit.
Finally, our experienced installers handle the mounting and fitting. Most installations are completed in a single day, and we don’t leave until everything operates smoothly and looks exactly right.
You’re involved in every step, but you don’t have to worry about any of the technical details. That’s what a decade of experience gets you.

Living in Montopolis means dealing with Austin’s unique climate challenges. Your shutters need to handle intense summer sun, sudden temperature changes, and the humidity that comes with being close to downtown.
Our plantation shutters are specifically designed for Texas conditions. The materials we use won’t warp, fade, or fail when temperatures swing from the 40s to over 100 degrees. They’re built to regulate your home’s temperature naturally, which means real savings on your energy bills.
We also understand Montopolis is a neighborhood in transition. Whether you’re in one of the classic mid-century homes or a brand-new build, we match our installation approach to your home’s specific architecture and your personal style preferences.
Shutter installation in Montopolis typically ranges from $20 to $45 per square foot, including materials and professional installation. For most windows, you’re looking at $200 to $600 per window, depending on size and material choice.
The exact cost depends on your window dimensions, the type of shutters you choose, and any custom features you want. We provide detailed quotes after measuring your windows, so you know exactly what you’re paying for.
What makes our pricing competitive is that we handle everything in-house—from manufacturing to installation—which eliminates middleman markups you’d pay with other companies.
Plantation shutters have wider louvers (typically 2.5 to 4.5 inches) compared to traditional shutters, which gives you better light control and a more contemporary look. The wider slats also provide clearer views when open.
They’re mounted inside your window frame rather than on the exterior, making them perfect for Montopolis homes where you want style and function without changing your home’s exterior appearance.
The construction is also different—plantation shutters are built as complete panels with integrated frames, while traditional shutters are often just slats. This makes plantation shutters more durable and better at blocking light and air infiltration.
Most shutter installations in Montopolis homes are completed in one day. For a typical home with 6-8 windows, we’re usually finished within 4-6 hours.
Larger projects or homes with custom window shapes might take two days, but we’ll let you know the timeline upfront. We work efficiently because our shutters arrive pre-built and ready to install—no on-site assembly required.
The key is our measuring process. When we get your measurements right the first time, installation goes smoothly without delays or adjustments.
Yes, properly installed shutters can reduce your cooling costs by 15-25% during Austin’s hot summers. They create an insulating barrier that keeps hot air out and conditioned air in.
The key is in the installation quality. Gaps around poorly fitted shutters actually work against you, letting hot air seep in. Our precision installation ensures your shutters create a proper seal when closed.
In Montopolis, where summer temperatures regularly hit the high 90s and low 100s, this translates to real savings on your electricity bill. Many of our customers notice the difference in their first month after installation.
We stand behind our work with comprehensive warranty coverage on both materials and installation. If something goes wrong, we come back and make it right.
Most issues with quality shutters are minor—a loose hinge, a sticky louver mechanism, or finish touch-ups. These are typically quick fixes that we handle at no charge during your warranty period.
Because we use Texas-made materials designed for our climate, major problems are rare. But when they do occur, we have the expertise and parts inventory to resolve them quickly without long waits for special orders.
Absolutely. We regularly install shutters on arched windows, bay windows, circular windows, and other custom shapes throughout Montopolis. Each installation is custom-built for your specific window dimensions and shape.
The process takes a bit longer because we need to create templates and custom-build the frames, but the end result is shutters that fit perfectly and operate smoothly.
We’ve handled everything from historic home renovations with unique window configurations to modern builds with floor-to-ceiling windows. If you have windows, we can probably put shutters on them.
