Frequently Asked Questions

  • How are plantation shutters installed?

    Installation involves securing the shutter frame to your existing window opening, then attaching the shutter panels to that frame.


    Depending on the style of your windows and the layout of your room, shutters can be mounted inside the recess for a flush look or outside for full coverage.


    A professional installer will use the correct tools and fixings to ensure everything is square, stable and moves freely.

  • What louvre size should I choose for my shutters?

    Louvre size affects both appearance and function. Larger louvres (around 89mm) let in more light and give a more modern, open feel—great for living rooms or coastal homes.


    Smaller louvres (around 63mm) provide more privacy and a more traditional look. The right size often depends on the scale of your windows, how much light you want, and the overall look you're after.

  • Do plantation shutters increase home value?

    They can, especially when installed professionally and fitted to suit the home.


    Buyers often see shutters as a premium window treatment because they offer both style and long-term durability.


    Unlike temporary blinds or curtains, they’re built in and low-maintenance. In coastal areas where sunlight, heat and privacy are important, they’re particularly appealing.

  • Are plantation shutters good for light sleepers?

    They’re a strong choice. While not blackout, plantation shutters do a great job of dimming a room and blocking early morning light. Their solid design also reduces external noise more than most soft furnishings.


    If you’re after total darkness, you can pair them with a set of block-out curtains or a secondary blind—giving you the flexibility to dial it up or down as needed.
