Made to Measure Plantation Shutters

Made To Measure Internal Shutters

With their wider louvres and classic styling reminiscent of the grand homesteads of America's south, plantation shutters are a clean, elegant solution for giving any windows of any home a stunning makeover, and their wow factor extends from the outside-in or inside-out perspective of the house. 

While the look of plantation shutters is instantly appealing regardless of modern or traditional tastes, it is their versatility and functionality that has made them one of the most popular types of window shutters available today. These internal shutters can even be used for shaped windows. Unlike curtains, they fit relatively flush with the window frames, opening any room to more space – from bathrooms, kitchens and laundries to bedrooms, dining rooms and living rooms.

Features & Benefits of Plantation Shutters By Spotlight Made to Measure

  • Sturdy materials: Choose plantation shutters constructed from PVC – ideal for wet areas like bathrooms, kitchens and laundries or timber for a beautiful finish in bedrooms and living areas. Fauxwood shutters provide a warm 'wood look' at a fabulously affordable price. You can be rest assured knowing our premium quality materials come with a 5-year warranty on timber, and a 7-year warranty on faux wood and PVC.
  • Temperature, privacy and light control: The louvres of plantation blinds mean they can be tilted and adjusted across the day and the seasons to regulate temperature, privacy and light. A hidden tilt rod gives you an unobstructed, 180-degree view whenever the louvres are open. Installing these quality shutters will also help you save on energy bills across the colder and warmer months.
  • Hinge options: To suit your design scheme and the requirements of your window fittings, our plantation shutters come in different hinging options – fixed, hinged, double-hinged, bi-fold and sliding.
  • Easy installation and maintenance: Spotlight's Made to Measure service is inclusive of installation. For ongoing care, all these shutters require is regular dusting with a soft cloth or a duster specifically made for slats, plus the occasional 'spring clean' with warm, soapy water to keep them in showroom condition.
  • Quality sources: At Spotlight, you have the choice of either imported or Australian-made to support our local industry. Sourcing from our offshore supply chain means you can access a wider selection of shutters for different tastes and décor. 



Our promise to you:

Spotlight's commitment is to provide you with the highest quality shutters at the best prices available. Additionally, all our shutters come with limited warranties that vary depending on the materials used.

We want you to love your shutters – and love them for years to come!

Range Of Different Styles And Hinge Options

Read more about the types of plantation shutters available, our team can help you decide what options is best:

  • Fixed Plantation Shutters: This style of shutter is used when you don't want the shutter to move, typically for safety or aesthetic. They can be utilised indoors for wall openings or can be an option for standard windows that do not open. 
  • Hinged Plantation Shutters: These types of plantation shutters have hinges to allow the panels to open and close. These are great options for bedrooms and around the home where windows can open, and can also be installed as room dividers or barriers to enclose balconies and patios. Hinged plantation shutters are typically the best option for most windows and are the most popular mounting method. 
  • Double-hinged Plantation Shutters: Double hinged shutters are configured so that one shutter panel is directly hinged to another. They perform in the same way to single hinged shutters, but have the advantage of providing additional strength when wider and heavier shutters are required. The hinge configuration also allows the panels to fold in neatly - hinged bifold shutters can be a good solution for windows where a fixture such as a tap prevents a wider single panel from opening fully.
  • Bi-fold Plantation Shutters: Bi-folding shutters usually feature a track where the plantation shutters can slide along. They’re an ideal option for room dividers or covering a sliding door, giving the ability to fold the panels away to reveal the outside world as you wish.

Sliding Plantation Shutters: This style of plantation shutter can move into cavities or along tracks - as opposed to opening outwards like a door. Sliding shutter panels can be used in a number of situations, most commonly over sliding doors.
