Plantation Shutters in Harborne
Shutters are joinery for the window. Each is made to the precise shape of its opening, with adjustable louvres set within a solid frame, and the result has a permanence no blind can match. In Harborne, they are often chosen for the principal bay at the front of the house.

The bays of B17 villas and Bearwood terraces are seldom exactly symmetrical, so each face is measured individually. Full height shutters give the most architectural result; tier on tier allows the upper section to be opened independently; café style dresses only the lower half for privacy. Painted finishes can be matched to woodwork, and stains suit timber floors.
Shutters are always quoted after the consultation; no bundle applies. Online bookings without another offer may use BN-14 for 14% off. Measuring takes a little longer than for a blind, and frame and opening options are discussed in full before a written quotation follows.
As each panel is made to measurement, shutters take longer to arrive than blinds. On installation, hinges and catches are adjusted so the panels close precisely and the louvres tilt evenly. Afterwards a soft duster or damp cloth suffices, and there are no cords at all.
Shutters are not intended for full blackout; a blackout roller set behind them is a discreet solution for bedrooms. Hidden tilt rods give a cleaner face than a central rod, and frame profiles can be chosen to sit within shallow reveals.
Painted finishes may be colour-matched to existing woodwork.

Enquiries
Why are shutters quoted rather than priced?
Each is made to its opening, and B17 bays are seldom symmetrical, so a written quotation follows measurement.
Are hidden tilt rods available?
Yes. They give a cleaner face to the panel than a central rod.
Do shutters darken a bedroom fully?
Not entirely. A discreet blackout roller behind them is a common solution.
