Hardwood Shutters — solid timber, made to measure

As expected, hardwood shutters are highly long-lasting. Crafted from premium paulownia wood, our wooden shutters combine strength with a lightweight feel for easy handling.

Hardwood shutters can be designed in any style to suit your preferences. Thanks to our made-to-measure service, they can also be fitted to any window shape or size.

Hardwood shutters create an effective barrier between your home and the outdoors, helping to retain heat and reduce energy costs.

Our hardwood plantation shutters feature a refined finish that enhances their natural, sophisticated look. Custom colour options are also available for a personalised touch.

Our hardwood shutters come with a 10-year guarantee, ensuring they remain both stylish and functional for years to come.

Why choose hardwood?

Strength without weight

Timber's strength-to-weight ratio lets us build taller and wider panels with slimmer stiles, so you lose less glass and less light.

Hand-finished colour

Every panel is sprayed and hand finished in a variety of colours, or stained to show the natural grain of the wood.

Wide louvre choice

63mm for a traditional look, 76mm as the all-round favourite, or 89mm for maximum view and daylight when open.

Best rooms for hardwood shutters

We fit hardwood in every style — full-height, café-style and tier-on-tier — including bay and shaped windows. For bathrooms, wet rooms and heavy-steam kitchens we'd recommend our waterproof Fauxwood range instead.

Living rooms & lounges

Full-height hardwood panels frame a window beautifully and give you precise control of light and privacy — tilt the louvres for daylight without the street looking in.

Bay & shaped windows

Because hardwood is light and strong, we can build angled bay sets, arches and shaped panels that follow the exact line of your window.

Bedrooms

Tier-on-tier hardwood lets you close the bottom half for privacy and open the top for light — and closed louvres cut a lot of morning glare.

Period & Victorian homes

Real timber suits older Manchester properties: deeper louvres, traditional frames and a hand-painted finish that sits naturally with original features.
