Plantation Shutters in Kew
Made-to-measure plantation shutters for Kew homes. We plan shutters for Kew homes where sash proportions, bay geometry, and a refined finish all need to be handled carefully.
We match the shutter to the window and room, using tier on tier and cafe style on more traditional elevations, with full height shutters and tracked systems where the rear of the property is more contemporary.

Why homeowners choose Shutters Design
A good shutter job starts before anything is ordered. We check the windows, find the right solution, price the work clearly, and fit the shutters ourselves.
One team, start to finish
The same family team handles the survey, measuring, fitting, and aftercare. If something needs adjusting afterwards, you call us directly.
Two ways to order
Express is built for speed, with UK-made shutters and a shorter lead time. Plan & Save is built for value, with a longer lead time and a better price.
Made to last
Polycomposite is waterproof and provides better thermal and noise insulation through metal insertions inside the louvres and frame. Hardwood is lighter for larger panels in dry rooms.
Honest advice, room by room
The right shutter depends on the room. We talk through privacy, light control, moisture, and insulation so the final choice is practical.
Kew is in the London Borough of Richmond upon Thames. Postcode district: TW9.
Plantation shutters for Kew homes
Kew Green, Kew Road and the streets around Kew Gardens have distinct building character. Shutter rails should line up with the glazing pattern, especially on a tall sash or bay.
Kew includes villas, terraces and cottages with tall sashes and front bays, alongside family homes with wider garden-facing glazing. We set the shutter proportions from each measured opening.
Kew shares the TW9 postcode district with Richmond. Our page on plantation shutters in Richmond covers the window patterns around Richmond Green and Richmond Hill.
Sash and bay window shutters in Kew
For a tall sash, tier on tier or cafe style can provide privacy at street level while leaving the upper glass clear. A front-room bay can use full height shutters when each face, angle and frame clearance is measured. The survey confirms how the panels can sit within the actual opening.
For wider garden-facing glazing, full height describes the coverage, not how the panels open. A hinged layout needs swing space; a tracked layout needs suitable fixings and room for panels to fold or slide. We check the door movement and available clearance before choosing the arrangement.
Show us which part of the sash you open for ventilation and how you reach its catches. The guide to opening windows with shutters explains what to check before choosing a layout.
Shutter styles and materials for Kew homes
We choose the material room by room. Bathrooms, kitchens and other wet or humid rooms suit waterproof Polycomposite. Dry living rooms and bedrooms can use lighter Hardwood for real wood character.
You can see recent installations in our gallery, and pricing is confirmed in writing before you commit. We talk it through room by room and recommend what actually works.
