FAQs About Bedroom Shutters
Yes, shutters are an excellent choice for bedrooms. They give you precise control over light and privacy, the low-VOC finish makes them a thoughtful choice for a sleeping space, and they're much easier to keep clean than drapes or fabric shades. Our Luxe Wood range is particularly popular for bedrooms thanks to its wide range of finishes and its hidden tilt option for a clean, minimal look.
Internal window shutters are very effective at reducing light when the louvers are fully closed, but they're not completely blackout. Some light may come through around the frame edges. For rooms that need to be genuinely dark, our Full Solid Raised shutters get closest to blackout, or consider pairing internal window shutters with blackout shades for maximum light control.
Full height shutters are the most popular choice for bedrooms, clean, elegant, and giving you complete light and privacy control. If your bedroom faces a street, tier-on-tier shutters are a great option, letting you open the top for light while keeping the bottom closed for privacy.
The cost of custom bedroom shutters depends on the product, window size and customization options you choose. For an accurate price, simply head to your preferred product page and use the configurator.

Everything You Need to Know About Bedroom Shutters
The bedroom is one of the most important spaces in the home, and the right window treatment can make a real difference to how well you sleep and how the room feels. Plantation shutters are an ideal choice for bedrooms, they give you complete control over light and privacy, help insulate against noise and temperature, and add a timeless elegance to any interior. Available in a range of materials, colors and styles, they can be tailored to suit any bedroom from a master suite to a child's room.
Why Choose Bedroom Shutters?
Light Control
The slats on plantation shutters are designed to close flat in an upward direction for maximum light blockage, making them one of the best options for keeping a bedroom dark. While not complete blackout, shutters significantly reduce light seeping through. Full height shutters and solid raised panel shutters are the ideal styles for light control; café style is best avoided in bedrooms as it leaves the upper portion of the window fully exposed.
Superior Privacy
Unlike curtains or blinds which must be fully open to let any light in, plantation shutters allow you to partially open the slats for natural light while still maintaining privacy. For ground-floor bedrooms or windows facing the street, smaller slat sizes of 2½" or 3" offer the most privacy. For upper-floor or rear-facing windows, or for a more modern look, wider slats of 3½" or 4½" work beautifully.
Better Sleep
Shutters offer excellent insulating properties, reducing outside noise and creating a barrier against external temperatures. This means the bedroom stays cooler in summer and warmer in winter, minimizing how often your heating or cooling kicks in during the night and helping you rest more soundly.
Perfect for Children's Bedrooms
Shutters are an increasingly popular choice for children's rooms. They block out light for daytime naps and bright summer evenings, have no dangerous dangling cords, are easy to wipe clean, help reduce allergens by discouraging dust build-up, and provide insulation to keep little ones comfortable through the night.
Effortlessly Stylish and Easy to Maintain
Bedroom shutters look beautiful and can add character, color and warmth to any room. They're also incredibly easy to look after, a quick wipe with a damp cloth or a dust with a microfiber cloth is all that's needed.
What Bedroom Shutter Ranges Are Available?
Our bedroom shutters are available in both hardwood and waterproof vinyl, with a wide range of colors, stains and finishes to suit any décor.
Hardwood Shutters
Hardwood is the most popular choice for bedrooms, adding warmth and a natural elegance that complements any interior style. Our hardwood ranges include Luxe Wood, made from sustainable Paulownia, and American Wood shutters crafted from solid Poplar in our North American facility. Both are available in a range of paint and stain finishes.
Waterproof Vinyl Shutters
If your bedroom experiences condensation or humidity, our waterproof vinyl shutters are a great option. They look and feel just like wood but won't warp or spoil as a result of moisture.
