Have a question about shutters?
Plantation shutters are a stylish and practical addition to indoor living spaces. Each louvre can be tilted independently for enhanced privacy and light control, allowing you to cover half, a quarter, or any amount of the shutter you prefer. Shutters also provide insulation for heat retention and noise reduction and allow coverage of raked windows.
Choosing a shutter style depends on your window and the room’s dimensions. Casement shutters are a popular option for casement windows that open out or narrow windows where only one shutter will fit. Bi-fold shutters, which can fold away on either side of the window, are suitable for wider windows.
NZ Blinds’ shutters are made from Norman’s Woodlore and Woodlore Plus. The Woodlore range is a renowned synthetic material. Woodlore uses a medical-grade polypropylene coating to achieve an even finish over the timber fibres and glue. Woodlore Plus is a durable synthetic material known as ABS (Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene), ideal for moisture-prone home areas, such as the bathroom.
Woodlore is a high-density material designed to withstand everyday household activity. The absence of grain and robust dimensional stability also minimises warping.
Our waterproof shutters, made from Woodlore Plus, are designed for use in bathrooms and other home areas exposed to moisture and humidity frequently.
Shutters are a low-maintenance shading solution. A duster or soft microfiber cloth helps manage dust accumulation, while a damp cloth is ideal for removing stubborn marks.
Shutter measurements depend on whether you will install it inside the window opening or mounted outside on the window fascia. The width and drop (height) are the main measurements, but extra space may need to be allocated depending on where the shutter will be positioned. For more details, read our shutter measurement guide.
Shutter installation requires the following tools for a smooth and comprehensive process: measuring box, knife, drill, tape, P2 Phillips Screw Tip (100mm long), #6 Countersink Drill Bit, and a caulking gun. We recommend contacting a professional handyperson if extra assistance is required. Read our installation guide for step-by-step instructions and what to expect.
