Not for the faint-hearted but tremendously rewarding!

If you're interested in building your own plantation shutters from scratch, then we have everything you need to get the job done.

Our FSC certified basswood components come pre-primed with a flawless surface finish to save you hours of work filling and sanding.

Louvre pins, hinges and magnets as well as all the accessories you'll need are available in our online store for speedy delivery in a matter of days.

Get started now by simply entering your shutter dimensions, select your louvre size, number of panels, etc and our Design Wizard will do the rest, producing your custom cutting list along with detailed drawings for you to download and print.

Check out our detailed information guides for help with design and measuring, and if there's anything you need assistance with, be sure to contact us and we'll be more than happy to offer help and advice.
