The benefits of shutters are easy to understand – they are more durable than curtains and more stylish than blinds, they are easy to maintain and they do a great job of helping to insulate a room. What has traditionally held shutters back from widespread usage in this country is the cost of having them made and installed. However, this is now changing, thanks to made to
measure shutters.
The idea behind made to measure shutters is that they eliminate the need for a trained carpenter or fitter to come to your home and install them, meaning the costs are drastically reduced. Typical installation costs for conventional shutters can be equal to the cost of the shutters themselves, so by choosing a made to measure option you can save as much as 50% on the overall purchase cost.
How it works is simple. Step one is to
measure your window, and at The Shutter Store we have clear, easy to understand online videos and written guides to help you with this. Just select the type of window you have (e.g. curved bay, box bay or inside mount), and follow the advice in the guide. If you get stuck, give our team a call and we’ll be delighted to help out.
Once you’ve got your measurements, send over the details and we will then manufacture your bespoke shutters for you in our own dedicated factory and have them shipped to your address.
When it’s time to
install your made to measure shutters, you will find more helpful videos and guides on our site. Installation is designed to be as straightforward and easy as possible, even for inexperienced DIY’ers. All you need is a hammer and a screwdriver – the videos will walk you through each step of the process. Once installed, you can sit back and admire your beautiful new shutters.
For the sake of a little bit of time and some basic DIY work, you can have beautiful high quality shutters for a fraction of the price of a professional installation. It’s no wonder that made to measure shutters have seen huge growth in popularity in the UK in recent years.
