Fauxwood Shutters — waterproof, made to measure

Fauxwood shutters are built from a solid polymer with an aluminium-reinforced core. They give you the look of a hand-painted timber shutter, but they're completely waterproof — so they're the right choice for any room where moisture, steam or heavy day-to-day use would spoil real wood.

  • 100% waterproof — safe for bathrooms & wet rooms
  • Aluminium-reinforced core for strength
  • Won't warp, crack, fade or discolour
  • Wipe-clean, low maintenance finish
  • Looks like a painted timber shutter
  • Free home measure & local fitting

What makes fauxwood different to hardwood?

Fully waterproof

Hardwood can swell and warp in constant moisture. Fauxwood can't absorb water at all, so it stays flat and true in bathrooms and wet rooms.

Reinforced for strength

An aluminium insert runs through the stiles and rails, letting us build taller, wider panels without any sag.

Colour that lasts

The finish is through-coloured and UV-stable, so it won't yellow on a sunny window or need repainting.

Best rooms for fauxwood shutters

We fit fauxwood shutters in every style — full-height, café-style and tier-on-tier — including bay and shaped windows.

Bathrooms & wet rooms

Steam, splashes and humidity have no effect on fauxwood. Louvres tilt for privacy while still letting daylight in — no more damp curtains or rusting blind fittings.

Kitchens & utility rooms

Cooking steam and grease wipe straight off with a damp cloth, so the shutter looks the same in ten years as it does on fitting day.

Conservatories

Fauxwood handles big temperature swings without moving, which makes it a stable choice for conservatory windows and doors.

Rentals & busy family homes

Hard-wearing, knock-resistant and easy to clean — a practical choice where windows get plenty of daily use.
