Tailor-made

What are wooden shutters?

Wooden shutters are lockable panels that we fit to the outside of your window or façade. They control the amount of light entering the room, provide privacy for your home and protect the windows from various weather conditions. Thanks to the natural look of wood, these shutters complement both traditional and modern buildings.

At Shutters Inc., we also supply external shutters made from high-quality FSC-certified timber, designed for long-term use and tailored to the architecture of your property.

Types of wood

What types of wood do we use?

We use three sustainable hardwoods as standard for our wooden shutters. Oak and red cedar are also available on request.

Standard

Meranti

A widely used, durable hardwood with a warm reddish-brown colour. Easy to work with and highly suitable for outdoor use.

Standard

Pine

A stable softwood with a distinctive grain and knots. Easy to work with and ideal for a variety of applications; when suitably treated, it is also very suitable for outdoor use.

Standard

Merbau

A dense, durable timber with a dark, rich appearance. Highly weather-resistant and capable of withstanding years of outdoor use.

On request

Bankirai

Known for its high density and natural resistance to moisture and insects. A popular choice for durable external shutters.

On request

Oak

A classic, robust timber with a refined grain pattern. Ideal for a timeless, stately look.

On request

Red Cedar

Lightweight and naturally resistant to rot and insects, with a distinctive warm reddish-brown colour.

Sustainable timber — sourced from responsibly managed forests. This means you’re not only choosing quality and durability, but also responsible sourcing.

Functional or decorative

What role should your shutters fulfil?

Wooden shutters aren’t just attractive to look at — they can also be really useful. We’ll work with you to find the right solution.

Functional wooden louvre shutters for sun protection
Functional

For sun protection and privacy

Functional wooden shutters are chosen when comfort, light control and privacy are the top priorities. Louvered shutters are a good example of this: thanks to the adjustable slats, you can precisely control the amount of light entering the room, whilst maintaining ventilation. Window shutters are also often used for functional purposes — they can be closed completely and offer protection from the sun, wind and prying eyes.

Decorative clamped wooden shutters on a farmhouse
Decorative

To enhance the façade

When aesthetics and architecture take centre stage, wooden shutters are often used for decorative purposes. Fixed shutters are a popular choice here: thanks to their robust construction, they enhance the character of a façade, particularly on farmhouses, country homes and historic buildings. They are usually fixed in place or have limited opening, and lend the building greater depth and authenticity.

We are very pleased with the service and installation of our louvre shutters by Shutters Inc. They came to our home to take measurements and advise us on the best choice: wood or aluminium. Absolutely brilliant – we’re really delighted with our dark blue louvre shutters.

What a masterful job. My partner and I bought an old farmhouse dating from 1840 and completely renovated it — new window shutters were part of that. We’re incredibly pleased with the quality and the way they worked with us. The window shutters have turned out beautifully.

Maintenance

How do you maintain wooden shutters?

Shutters Inc.’s wooden shutters give your façade a warm and timeless look. We understand that maintenance is an important consideration. Our wooden shutters are made from high-quality hardwood and are renowned for their long lifespan. As wood is a natural product, it does require periodic maintenance — this is a key difference compared to our aluminium shutters, which are virtually maintenance-free.

With regular cleaning and timely re-treatment, wooden shutters will remain attractive and functional for longer. Are you unsure whether to choose wood or a low-maintenance alternative such as upvc shutters? Please feel free to contact us.

A brief guide to maintenance

Check the finish at least once a year, particularly on façades exposed to a lot of sun, wind or rain.

Is the paintwork looking dull or showing cracks? Then it’s time to give it another coat.

Regular cleaning with water and a soft brush prevents dirt and grime from building up.

Prefer something maintenance-free? Ask us about aluminium or upvc alternatives.

Frequently asked questions

Questions about wooden shutters

Yes, wooden shutters can help with insulation, particularly when they close completely. They form an extra layer in front of the window and reduce heat loss in winter and solar gain in summer. Closed shutters, in particular, help to minimise temperature fluctuations. The insulating effect depends on the type of shutter, how it is fitted and how it is used.
Yes, provided the correct type of wood and finish are used. In coastal and windy areas, wooden shutters are exposed to additional stress from wind and moisture. By choosing suitable types of timber, ensuring a robust construction and applying a protective finish, wooden shutters will continue to perform well even in these conditions.
Our wooden shutters are available in virtually any RAL colour, from classic white and green to anthracite or a colour of your choice. A natural stain finish is also available, which allows the wood grain to remain visible. Our specialist will be happy to advise you on the colour that best suits your façade.
Yes, wooden shutters can usually be combined with existing window frames without any problems. They are fixed to the façade or the window frame, depending on the situation. With existing window frames, we assess the fixing options, the direction of rotation and ease of use, to ensure a solution that is technically sound and works smoothly.
Yes, wooden shutters enhance the appearance of a property and can contribute to its perceived value. They lend a building character and a well-maintained look. Particularly in homes with a classic, country or timeless style, shutters are seen as a high-quality addition that enhances the property’s appeal.
The price of bespoke wooden shutters depends on the type of wood, the type of shutter, the dimensions and the desired shutter fittings.
