Traditional Panels That Keep Rooms Warm, Quiet and Cosy

Step back in time with solid shutters – the authentic choice for period properties and anyone who appreciates timeless, traditional design. Unlike louvred shutters, these panels are crafted from single pieces of premium hardwood with no slats or gaps.

The result? Unmatched privacy, superior insulation, and genuine blackout capability (well, near-blackout – we're being honest here). When closed, solid shutters create an elegant wall of wood that's as much about aesthetics as function.

They're the shutters you see in Regency townhouses, Victorian mansions, and grand Georgian properties – and for good reason. The solid panel design creates dramatic vertical lines that emphasise high ceilings and complement tall, elegant windows beautifully.

But here's where they surprise modern homeowners: they're not just for period purists. Solid shutters work brilliantly in contemporary bedrooms where you want serious darkness for better sleep, or in media rooms where light control is crucial. They're also magnificent acoustic insulators, making rooms noticeably quieter.

Frequently Asked Questions

Got a question about our blinds and shutters? Start here.

What are the benefits of traditional solid wood shutters?

Solid shutters offer a classic, period-accurate look perfect for Victorian or Georgian properties. They provide the highest level of noise reduction and insulation of any shutter style, and when closed, they offer near-total light exclusion.

Are solid shutters harder to operate than louvred shutters?

Not at all. They operate like small, high-quality doors within your window frame. They are incredibly durable and are often chosen for their simplicity and the extra layer of security they provide to a home.

Do you provide home consultations in Wiltshire and Somerset?

Yes, we provide a full 'shop-at-home' service across Westbury, Trowbridge, Frome, and the surrounding villages. We bring the samples to you so you can see the fabrics in your own natural light.

Can shutters be installed on bay windows or arched frames?

Yes. Because we provide a bespoke measure and fit service, our shutters are custom-crafted to follow the exact architectural lines of your window, including Victorian bays, arched tops, and circular windows. This ensures a flush finish that off-the-shelf options cannot achieve.

Are shutters suitable for high-moisture areas like bathrooms or kitchens?

Absolutely. We offer specialized waterproof shutter ranges (often high-grade ABS) designed specifically for bathrooms and wet rooms. These maintain the classic aesthetic of wood but will not warp, peel, or succumb to dampness over time.
