Shutters
PLANTATION SHUTTERS WERE ORIGINALLY DESIGNED AS AN EXTERNAL WINDOW COVERING FOR HOT CLIMATES. NOW THEY ARE USED INTERNALLY BECAUSE THEY OFFER VERSATILITY IN LIGHT, VENTILATION AND PRIVACY SIMPLY NOT POSSIBLE WITH CURTAINS OR BLINDS.
Interior shutter with adjustable louvers can be designed in many different styles and come in a large range of louver sizes and colours. Shutters come in many different material and price options, the quality of our lowest price shutter is actually as good as the premium range, it is lower priced because of the material used and finishing required.
The Vancouver Shutter Range is manufactured from Cedar in its natural state, sorted into Natural and Medium Natural, a lighter shade cedar delivering a stunning impression. Vancouver shutters are also available in a range of painted options. It is used extensively in loft style apartments, barn conversions and really anywhere where you need to achieve a very natural look.
Our Portland shutter range is made from yellow poplar whose smooth and consistent grain make it a very robust and high quality hardwood, with an engineered core to prevent any possibility of warping. Portland shutters are well suited to areas where extra durability is required either around the home or for commercial premises.
The Phoenix Shutter Range although a hardwood it is also very light allowing design for quite wide openings without having to resort to top tracking. This also enables us to confidently use Phoenix for large (tier on tier) installations where weight would definitely preclude the use of Seattle or similar weight hardwood shutter panels.
The Seattle Shutter Range is maintenance free and very strong, with a wipe clean surface, impervious to kids with crayons but equally at home in the minimalist bachelor apartment.
The Hollywood shutter range is made from solid-core PVC shutter components representing a major breakthrough for vinyl shutter fabrication. Ideal for harsh environments such as wet rooms, showers, conservatories where condensation or insect infestation could be an issue, kitchen sink windows and anywhere really that needs a tough but good looking window treatment that will last (This is the only shutter we have found that can be used in wet environments. The new closed-cell composite shutter technology ensures superior strength, stiffness, and although lightweight won’t warp, dent or chip, with high thermal insulation values for superior energy efficiency. Hollywood shutters are available in pre-finished bright white and off white fade-resistant colours in 63mm and 89mm louvers. The surface integrity resists moisture, heat, UV rays, and is certified for flame retardancy.
