Bedroom Shutters
If you're planning to redecorate your bedroom, nothing enhances your windows more than beautiful, bespoke plantation shutters. Available in a full range of materials — including real wood, MDF and waterproof PVC — and a wide choice of colours, bedroom shutters are a stunning addition to any room and help to define the space as somewhere you genuinely want to relax.
Light Control for Mornings & Nights
Adjustable louvres let you control exactly how much light enters the room. Tilt them open for bright, welcoming mornings; angle them down to soften the late-afternoon sun streaming across the bed; close them completely for a dark, cosy and peaceful sleeping environment. There is no other window covering that gives you this much fine-grained control without having to swap between curtains and blinds.
Total Blackout for Better Sleep
Closed plantation shutters block the vast majority of light, but for a really demanding sleeping environment — nurseries, shift workers, very bright summer mornings, or rooms with streetlights immediately outside — we offer blackout shutters. These combine a full-height plantation shutter with an integrated blackout blind concealed inside the panel. Open the louvres normally during the day; lower the hidden blind for total blackout at night. It's a far more elegant solution than putting blackout blinds behind shutters.
Sound & Heat Insulation
Closed shutters provide a physical barrier on your bedroom windows, reducing outside noise and helping keep heat in (or out!) — particularly valuable on bedrooms facing busy roads, pubs or neighbours. In a hot summer, a bedroom with closed shutters reflecting away the sunlight stays noticeably cooler. In winter, the extra layer of insulation reduces heat loss through the glass. Our solid wood Worcester and Ashwood ranges offer the strongest sound and heat insulation.
Easy to Clean — Great for Allergies
Bedroom shutters are super easy to clean with a warm damp cloth. There are no fabrics to harbour dust mites and no soft furnishings absorbing pollen — making them a fantastic option for hay-fever sufferers, asthmatics and anyone with allergies where curtains can be a problem. They are also a much safer choice than corded blinds for nurseries and children's rooms.
Bedroom Bay Windows & Awkward Shapes
Many of the most beautiful bedrooms are at the front of period properties with bay windows or unusual window shapes. Bespoke bedroom shutters fit any configuration: Victorian and Edwardian splayed bays, square modern bays, sash windows, dormers, eaves windows and shaped windows. Curtains across a bedroom bay always look bunched and waste the bay window seat; shutters fit the angles perfectly and leave the seat fully usable.

Frequently Asked: Bedroom Shutters
Do plantation shutters block out enough light for a bedroom?
Closed shutters block most light, but a small amount filters through louvre joints. For total blackout — nurseries, shift workers, summer mornings — choose our blackout shutters with an integrated blind concealed inside the panel.
Do bedroom shutters help with noise?
Yes. Closed shutters dampen outside noise from traffic, pubs and neighbours. Solid wood ranges (Worcester, Ashwood) give the strongest sound insulation.
Are shutters good for children's bedrooms and nurseries?
Particularly good — no dangling cords or chains (a safety issue with corded blinds), wipe-clean surfaces for sticky fingers, blackout options for daytime naps, and low-VOC finishes safe for children's rooms.
Can I have shutters on a bedroom bay window?
Yes — bedroom bay windows are one of our most popular installations. Bespoke bay configurations fit Victorian, Edwardian, square and angled bays.
