We love our shutters! We live on a busy street and the shutters give us the privacy we need, and also smarter up our windows. We have wanted shutters for ages, and received a few quotes which were all so different, but too expensive for us. A couple of months ago we came across a company www.shuttershack.co.uk they are the sister company of a already established company. Anyway we ordered ours as DIY shutters which saved us literally ££'s. We have fitted ourselves. But they do offer a fitting service, which still seems a lot cheaper than other companies. Happy days.

Thanks. i already have internal fitted velux thermal blinds and external velux sunshades - which are cheaper and possibly less effective than the shutters. These make a difference, but the sun still does get to the glass to some extent and this is what essentially turns the windows into heaters. Logically it makes sense to me that if the shutters can totally prevent sun reaching the glass on a hot day they will help - but given the cost, id like to know how much theyll help before investing!

I would say they are purely decorative as the ones on the central windows don’t look like they would actually cover the windows (unless they are bifold?). Therefore I would say they are a bit faux (fake) and cheapen the look of the house, however that’s just my opinion and I am in the uk so not familiar with your style of house.

Hi! I’m looking for recommendations for the exterior of my home. Something modern to make it stand out. All recommendations are appreciated!
