Curtains Mean Compromise!
Unless tailored specifically for you, they can be hard to match with the surrounding décor. They block out light, attract dust and need to be regularly taken down and cleaned.
With the only options being open and closed, it’s hard to find the precise level of light which you want for your room. They are a small part of your life, but a big part of your home and a daily inconvenience.
Real Wood Shutters For Windows
The solution is solid wood shutters. For decades they’ve been the go-to window dressing in design.
They let in more light when you want and less when you don’t, they provide additional insulation to cut down your heating bills, significantly improve home security, and privacy. Plus they can be styled to accomodate every type of window.
Versatile solid wood interior shutters are an ideal solution for all windows, doors, room dividers, or free-standing screens. Each solid shutter design has a unique detailed moulding which creates an authentic traditional panel, available in any of the following options: Edwardian, Victorian, Georgian, Solid Shaker, and Raised.

Suit Your Style
Various types of timber can be chosen for the construction of your solid shutters. Each wood offers unique characteristics, ensuring you can find a match for aesthetic and functional requirements of your home.
Perfect Night's Sleep
Highly effective original solid shutters ensure minimal light intrusion. Opening the panels fully, lets in as much sunlight as possible during the day, and blocks out any external light when closed for near blackout.
Eliminates Warping
We use wider and deeper vertical profiles. This eliminates bowing and twisting over time, as the biscuit technology employed within restricts any movement to less than 2mm over a 20-year stress test.
Stays In Shape
Using magnetic closure on all our internal panel shutters eliminates movement even further. In addition, easy closure and maximum light blockage is achieved by rebating the inner and outer stiles of the shutters.
Easy To Clean
Shutters bring many benefits to a home, but perhaps the best is just how little maintenance they require. Light cleaning with a feather duster or clean, dry cloth is all you need. Try doing that with dusty old curtains and blinds!
Reduce Outside Noise
Because shutters are made from a solid material, they’re more effective at bouncing back soundwaves than other window dressings. If your calm is being disturbed, it’s a simple case of getting up and closing the shutters.
