Wood, Composite, or Aluminium? Find the Perfect Shutters for Your Home

Not All Shutters Are Created Equal. When it comes to choosing shutters, there’s no one-size-fits-all solution. Every room has its own needs — from moisture and temperature changes to style and security considerations. The right material makes all the difference.

At Shutters of Elegance, we offer three carefully selected materials, each designed to perform beautifully in its environment. Here’s how to choose the one that suits your home best.

Real Wood Shutters — Worcester & Ashwood Ranges

Best for: Living rooms, dining rooms, and bedrooms

Why choose them: Nothing matches the natural beauty and warmth of real wood. Our Worcester Range features a smooth painted finish for a refined, contemporary look, while our Ashwood Range showcases the rich, authentic grain of natural hardwood.

Wood shutters bring timeless charm and a sense of craftsmanship that synthetic materials can’t replicate. They’re ideal for spaces where elegance, texture, and classic appeal are key.

Composite Waterproof Shutters — Vienna Range

Best for: Kitchens, bathrooms, and utility rooms

Why choose them: Built from durable composite materials, our Vienna Range is 100% waterproof — perfect for humid environments where traditional wood wouldn’t last.

Resistant to warping, swelling, and cracking, these shutters are the smart choice for busy family homes. They’re low-maintenance, easy to clean, and combine practicality with a sleek, elegant appearance.

Aluminium Security Shutters — Portchester Range

Best for: Ground-floor windows, patio doors, and homes requiring extra security

Why choose them: When strength and peace of mind are priorities, our Portchester Range delivers. Made from high-grade aluminium, these shutters are a stylish alternative to bulky security bars or grilles.

They enhance your home’s privacy and protection without compromising on design — adding subtle elegance alongside unmatched durability.
