Shutter Blinds

Why Shutter Blinds

Shutter blinds (frequently known as "Faux Wood Venetian Blinds") provide the high-end look of a plantation shutter with the practical functionality of a blind. Featuring extra-wide slats and a matching valance, they offer a sophisticated aesthetic that bridges the gap between luxury and affordability.

  • High-End Look, Lower Cost: Designed to mimic the appearance of permanent shutters, providing a premium finish for homeowners working with a more flexible budget.

  • Full Window Access: Unlike fixed shutter panels, these can be pulled up completely via a cord or wand, giving you a totally unobstructed view of the outside whenever you choose.

  • Moisture-Proof Durability: Constructed from high-quality PVC/Faux Wood, these blinds are 100% waterproof and warp-resistant—making them the #1 choice for "splash zones" like kitchen sinks and bathrooms.

  • Easy-Clean Slats: The wide, smooth surfaces are far easier to dust than thin, traditional venetian blinds, ensuring they stay looking brand new with minimal effort.

  • Simplified Installation: These fit easily into a standard window recess without the need for a permanent outer frame, making them ideal for modern properties and quick room refreshes.

Reviews

Great quality, custom shutters. We had some unusual shape/size dormer windows and the team did a great job. Well installed, and real attention to detail. Even switched window handles to ensure the ideal fit. Long lead time but no worse than others I found and much better value.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why should you pick shutters over curtains?

Shutters offer a lot of benefits. They look stylish from the inside and out, day and night. Curtains on the other hand offer a more traditional look and are left open during the day, leaving the room and its contents exposed. Shutters provide more privacy than curtains since outsiders don’t have any visibility inside your space. If you have a tier-on-tier shutter, you can open up the top panels during the day while maintaining privacy and security. Shutter louvres may also be adjusted to divert sunlight away from the furnishings while keeping the space bright, white and clean.

Do shutters help to keep the heat in?

Installing high-quality shutters is an excellent way to retain heat inside your home throughout the harsh winters. Shutters can effectively block out more draughts or the cold from the windows than woven cloth window coverings due to their solid and sturdy structure. During the warmer months, shutters can help improve the indoor ventilation of your home by allowing hot air to escape without letting too much light in

What is the difference between shutters and plantation shutters?

Plantation shutters are among the most popular types of shutters, that are available in a variety of designs. They mostly feature louvres that can be flipped open and shut using tilt rods that are visible and are generally painted a bright, airy white. Unlike other styles, Plantation shutters can be made in any colour and finish as per your needs, and they can be installed both inside or outside your property.

What type of maintenance and care is required for my new shutters?

Once we finish installing your shutters, our team of experienced fitters will give you all the necessary information including instructions on how to easily clean and operate your shutters. Our shutters are built from high-quality materials, making them durable and require very low maintenance. You can simply clean them with a normal dust cloth to keep them looking their best.

Can I install these window shutters myself?

Technically, you could install your own shutters, but for the best results, you should allow our skilled team to handle the installation. This assures that your shutters are installed the right way and function as smoothly as possible. Getting the shutters installed from professionals is just more beneficial for an accurate fit and to maintain the warranty of your product.
