Plantation Shutters in Richmond
Made-to-measure plantation shutters for Richmond sash and bay windows, planned around original proportions, street privacy, and day-to-day light control.
Tier on tier, cafe style, full height, and tracked configurations suit different windows, so we specify room by room at the survey.

Why Choose Us
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 real basswood 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.
Plantation shutters for Richmond homes
The homes are a real mix: the Georgian fronts around Richmond Green, the older terraces up Richmond Hill, riverside flats near the bridge, and modern family houses with wider glazing out towards Petersham and the Park. Original timber sash and bay windows need a layout that keeps the proportions right and the room light, while shutters can still suit a traditional room or a contemporary one.
We match the shutter to each window rather than fitting one style across the whole house. We work that out at the survey, window by window.
Shutters for Richmond Hill and Richmond Green homes
For a tall sash, tier on tier or cafe style can provide privacy below while leaving the upper glass clear. Cafe style may therefore suit an overlooked ground-floor room, while a bay can use full height shutters when every face and angle is measured during the survey.
Richmond Hill carries the famous view over the Thames meadows, protected by an Act of Parliament. For a protected or listed property, the louvre and frame should be chosen for the original window proportions rather than a stock local style.
Hardwood for heritage rooms, polycomposite for kitchens and bathrooms
Dry living rooms and bedrooms can use Hardwood for real timber character, which suits the older formal rooms across Richmond. Bathrooms and kitchens call for waterproof Polycomposite: it handles humidity, has waterproof construction for wet-room suitability, and is designed for wet rooms. We talk it through room by room and recommend what actually works. You can see the spread of styles and rooms in our recent installations gallery.
Shutter prices and a free survey across Richmond
We price by the square metre, so the cost tracks the size of your windows. Express is £315/sqm in Polycomposite, £380/sqm in Hardwood. Plan & Save is £260/sqm either way. The survey is free, there is no deposit until you order, and we confirm the exact figure before you commit. All published shutter rates include VAT, the home survey, supply and fitting.
Express shutters are UK-made and usually fitted in about 2 to 3 weeks, with a 10-year guarantee on Polycomposite and 5 years on Hardwood. Plan & Save, made overseas to the same spec, takes around 8 to 9 weeks. Home surveys and fitting visits in Richmond have no travel charge when the address is within our current service area.

We price by the square metre, so the cost tracks your window size, confirmed free at the survey with no deposit until you order.

Express shutters are UK-made and usually fitted about 2 to 3 weeks after your survey. Plan & Save, made overseas to the same spec, takes around 8 to 9 weeks. Both are measured and fitted in Richmond by our own family team.
Interior shutters usually do not alter the external window, but listed-building and conservation controls vary. Check with the local planning authority or conservation officer before ordering if the property is listed, in a conservation area or subject to another restriction.
A tall sash can use tier on tier or cafe style for privacy at street level without losing the light. A bay can take full height shutters measured to its individual angles rather than assuming the opening sits at a true 90 degrees.
Use Hardwood in dry formal rooms, the Victorian and Edwardian reception rooms and bedrooms where real timber character suits Richmond’s older homes, with a 5 year guarantee. Use waterproof Polycomposite in bathrooms and kitchens for its waterproof build and 10 year guarantee.
