Plantation Shutters work well in all areas of the home, and indeed on both windows and doors. These shutters were fitted last week as part of a full house. They are from our Cleveland Range – which are combination of composite materials including MDF/Fauxwood panels with ABS louvres and MDF/Fauxwood frames. Basically this means that the louvres are unbreakable!

Colette chose our Classic shutters in ‘Pure White’ for her recently renovated home in Clontarf. Colette’s French Door shutters were designed with 6 panels (instead of 4) which gives a really elegant look and ensures the doors slide much more easily. The shutters have 3″ (76mm) louvres with no tilt rod – instead using our EasyTilt system for opening and closing. The new ring pull on the doors will help with their operation and avoid jammy fingerprints! .
Take a look inside these recently renovated luxury holiday apartments in Kinsale. As they are located on Main Street, Kinsale, the owner wanted to ensure privacy and noise reduction for his guests. The shutters installed were custom made from our hardwearing Classic range (MDF), (see our Shutter Range here) with 63mm (2.5″) louvres in Silk White. The tilt rod is hidden using our Easy Tilt mechanism and this is a great option for heavy traffic areas. The shutters are a combination of full height, tier on tier and cafe style throughout the apartments which gives a great variety to the…
With this great weather we’ve had lately the only downside is being able to keep the house cool and flies out! Getting air into the house is so important and having proper ventilation is essential for keeping the temperature down – especially at nighttime when it can get uncomfortable. For those homes without shutters – the only way to get the air in is to open the window and open the curtains or raise the blinds – what a nuisance! – you either get no privacy or flapping window treatments! However – with plantation shutters it’s so much easier! Shutters…

We often have clients coming back to us again and again for more shutters for their homes, or indeed friends and family. Jennifer in Duleek, Co. Meath is no exception.

See how this home is transformed by the installation of Plantation Shutters in the bedrooms and home office. The rooms in this house were filled with light, and our clients did not want to compromise on this – they chose our Grovewood Plantation Shutters in Pure White for their bedrooms and Limed White for the office – which not only matched their interiors, but using this colour ensured that the light was bounced into the room. Choosing our EasyTilt system (no tilt rod) also limited the amount of wood on the shutters. The shutters in the bedroom helped with any…
A question we get asked, probably every day when we’re meeting people, is if shutters will darken a room. Obviously it is a worry for everyone – when investing in any new purchase you need to make sure you have all the facts! The main thing to remember about Plantation Shutters is that they give you the ability to control how much light comes into your room. Thus – if you want a bright, room with lots of light entering or you would like a more romantic, cozy feel – both are possible with Plantation Shutters. Creating a Bright Effect…
I don’t know about you, but sometimes the thought of settling down to work at home can cause me to groan – I always see all the other things that can be done around the place, and never totally get into work! However, when I saw these shutters that we fitted in Galway – besides instant jealousy – I knew that this would be a home office where even my wandering mind could focus! The shutters are in Silk White from our Classic Range (see here), they have our Easy Tilt mechanism (which has no visible tilt rod) and have 3″…
This apartment in Ringsend, Dublin 4 has been transformed with the installation of Plantation Shutter Blinds from our Classic Range. The Venetian Blinds in place before our make-over were awkward and difficult to use. When we installed our Plantation Shutters, the room immediately looked more sophisticated and elegant. Not only that, but the use of shutter doors meant that there were no more cords to contend with or banging blinds when the doors were open. The Shutter doors can also open back to ensure easy passage into the much used balcony. The shutter doors can be left open or…

Beautiful homes made even better with the addition of our Plantation Shutters While many people worry that Plantation Shutters will make their rooms dark, the opposite is in fact true. The addition of Plantation Shutters in a room not only bounce the outside light into a room, they also provide excellent insulation – and look great! Roller blinds, curtains, Venetian blinds – all popular choices for windows – but they, as you can see from these photos, pale in comparison when pitched against plantation shutters. And, again, not only are they pleasing to the eye – they are…

Plantation Shutters are beautiful, and you really can call them furniture for your windows. Although they are not nearly as expensive as they used to be, plantation shutters are still an investment for your home. Bearing this in mind, we have put together some practical reasons to love Plantation Shutters: Light & Dark – plantation shutters work really well during the day to bounce light around your room. However, once it starts getting dark in the evenings, all you need to do to stop people being able to see in, is to tilt the louvers or close them completely. And…
One of the most difficult parts of getting any work done in your home is to find the right person for the job. Companies may have fancy websites, or great TV ads or indeed amazing sales, but the hardest part of all (besides parting with hard-earned money) is trying to decide on who to do your job for you! But where to start if you haven’t been given any recommendations? One of the things I always advise my clients to do is to go to see our previous installations. This will often help a customer decide what they want in their…

This pretty house in Howth was lacking privacy at the front and sides and also had large sliding doors in the kitchen opening out onto a courtyard. Together with our customer, we decided that the best solution was to install Plantation Shutters on the sash windows around the house and Pleated Blinds for the large sliding doors at the back of the house. Joe went for Silk White Plantation Shutters with a 2″ louver and hidden tilt wand. They are made from our lightweight Parasol which has a lovely distinctive grain that stands out even when painted. The Pleated Blinds…

This terraced house in a quiet city centre cul-de-sac was rejuvenated with the addition of our Plantation Shutters. Our client, Valerie, wanted shutters in the front and back of the house to help brighten up her rooms, and also to add privacy. The Plantation Shutters we installed were 2.5″ louver in Pearl with a hidden tilt wand. The front of the house was transformed by replacing the old wooden blinds with the new Shutters which help define the windows and make the house look cleaner and brighter. Valerie had a blind in the downstairs room only, so the addition of the shutters has helped bring uniformity…
Conservatory Plantation Shutters – From Unused Room to Favourite Space [pinterest] Our client originally contacted us to get a quotation for blinds for her conservatory. Upon seeing the space, we advised that Plantation Shutters would make a room out of the conservatory and would be more functional for heat retention and privacy. The client was concerned that Plantation Shutters would be too expensive, but once she received our quote, she realised how competitive our prices are. Susan thus opted for 2.5″ louver plantation shutters in Silk White with a Centre Tilt Wand for her windows and for her French Doors, she…

[pinterest] Plantation Shutters are a great idea for kid’s bedrooms or nurseries, they are: 1 : Child Safe – with no cords or strings, shutters are completely child friendly 2 : Sleep Friendly – because of the adjustable nature of the louvers/slats, shutters block out a lot of light and noise helping to give them (and you) a decent night’s sleep! 3 : Temperature regulators – the shutters will act as another layer to your windows – which is perfect in both summer & winter to help regulate…

How to clean Plantation Shutters for a more intense deep clean – follow these 2 simple steps and you’ll be done in no time! 1.

This beautiful period red brick in Dublin 8 is revitalised with tier-on-tier plantation shutters. [pinterest] Because Claire was living on a busy street in Dublin’s city centre, she wanted not only a solution for her windows that provided privacy and noise reduction, but also one which looked great. Claire decided to fit her windows with plantation shutters, and, because she wanted to be able to open the top and bottom panels independently, she chose the tier-on-tier plantation shutters style. Having this style gives Claire the freedom to open the tops or the bottoms of the shutters on her large Bay windows…
Another happy customer…”Hi Michael, delighted with the shutters, great job! Thanks, Mike” Mike wanted plantation shutters for his two windows at the front of his house, one of which is a bay window.

Another example of how shutters really do fit in with all styles of window and home. To book your FREE consultation – please call Michael on 087-2128007 or email michael@shuttersofdublin.com
