PVC Plantation Shutters

This is how you would like your shutters to hinge/swing. If you only want a single panel for example a small window you would select L (Left hinge) or R (Right hinge). T posts or double hinges (bi fold without track) can be used if you would like more than two panels within the one frame.

This is the depth/width of the blade. The most common blade is the 89mm, we also have a larger 114mm blade available on request (Phone call confirmation required to discuss security clearances to ensure the blades will not hit any obstacles).

Traditionally a clear view tilt rod is used. The tilt rod sits on the front of the shutters in the center to move the blades together. For a cleaner more modern look a hidden tilt rod is used. The hidden tilt rod is concealed at the rear of the shutter on the same side as the hinges. Hidden tilt rod is automatically chosen for any bi fold orders.

Think of this like a picture frame only the shutter panels are the picture. Small L-Rebate, has a small rebate that follows around the entire frame, due to its sleek size this is the most common used when mounting inside the window frames. Medium L-Rebate is slightly larger, commonly used when mounting to the outside of your architraves where clearances for blade tilting could be an issue. Fixed U Channel is a top and bottom channeled guide for your shutters to tuck under the top channel and sit in bottom channel. The blades can open as normal although the panel does not hinge it is fixed inside the channel. The panels can be removed easily by lifting upward and over the bottom U. These work great as room dividers for the same look on both sides or areas were panels cannot be hinged.

Only necessary for shutters over 1600mm in height. A divider rail is used to increase the structural integrity of the panels. Most windows have a divider or a window winder you may be able to line the divider rail up with. Please provide the height of the divider rail from the bottom to where you wish the centre of the divider to be (Divider is roughly 75mm in height).

See image. If you are mounting your shutters inside the window frame choose inside mount. If the shutters are to be mounted outside the window frame select outside mount. This option ensures we only make standard height and width deductions of 4mm for inside mount shutters.

Height from top to bottom of opening. Tolerances are +- 2mm. We make standard deductions of 4mm for inside mount shutters so please allow for this. Tip: check if opening is square.

Width from left to right of opening. Tolerances are +- 2mm. We make standard deductions of 4mm for inside mount shutters so please allow for this. Tip: check if opening is square.

Used to identify the box’s when they arrive (You may only order 1 shutter although when you order multiple shutters this is very handy!). Examples, Master Bedroom 1, Living 1, Front Living 2, Main Bath 1, Ensuite 1 etc
