Plantation Shutters
Plantation shutters, or plantation blinds, got their name due to their origin in the American South. They were typically installed by the owners of the large farms and estates that produced coffee, tobacco, sugar cane, and cotton.
These farms were known as plantations. Plantation shutters are characterised by their wide louvres, whereas other window shutter blinds tend to have narrower wedge-shaped louvres.

Traditionally made from wood, plantation owners usually installed shutters outside the windows in the Old American South. While this custom continues, most UK homeowners opt to install shutters on the inside of the windows.
Plantation shutters are an in-demand alternative to roller blinds and curtains. Considering the functionality and aesthetic gains they offer, it is little wonder people are switching to these attractive window coverings. Homeowners worldwide appreciate plantation blinds for their versatility and ability to positively change a room’s look and feel.
Made from durable materials, modern high-quality plantation shutters do not split or peel and, with minimal care, remain in prime condition for many years. As a result, you will not need to replace them for an exceptionally long time, and when this time arrives, it is usually possible to use the same outer frames and only replace the slats.
Whether they are cafe-style shutters, full height shutters, or bay window shutters, shutters are the most effortless window coverings to clean; all they need is a quick dusting and the occasional wipe with a damp cloth.
As our bespoke wooden shutters fit snugly inside your existing window frames, they will help insulate the home. When open, they promote efficient airflow and help ventilate the house. When closed, they create a barrier over the windows, keeping the heat in when it is cool and out when it’s warm.
Houses with shutters fitted require less heating and air conditioning, saving money on utility bills.
Plantation shutters are the perfect choice for patio and French doors, but they can be produced to fit any window style and are the perfect option where privacy and light control is required.
They function as a buffer between your windows and the room’s interior, so they are perfect for large French doors, as they reduce noise. This benefit also makes them a top choice for windows overlooking busy roads or with passing pedestrian traffic.
