• How Much Do Shutters Cost?

When it comes to selecting new window coverings, your decision will usually come down to weighing a few key factors; style, functionality and most importantly cost.

Beautiful plantation shutters are a popular choice for many people because they offer complete control over light, airflow and privacy and come in a range of colours and materials – ideal for any taste and budget.

At The Blinds Gallery, finding out the price of your shutters is easy – just ask for a free measure and quote! However, if you’re looking for a quick idea of how much your shutters are likely to cost and what factors are involved in determining your final quote, read on below.

How much do plantation shutters cost?

The cost of plantation shutters will vary depending on a range of factors, but on average you can expect your shutters to start at around $300-$500 for a standard window.

Installation costs for plantation shutters may be charged at an hourly or fixed rate. Independent contractors will usually charge in the range of $70-$100 per hour to install plantation shutters – but there will be cost savings having them installed by The Blinds Gallery’s experienced installation team.

In Australia you can expect to spend on average around $2,200 to $3,600 to install plantation shutters in your home, or around $20 per square foot (according to Canstar).

What goes into the cost of shutters?

There’s a number of important factors involved in the cost of your shutters, here’s a breakdown;

Window size

The dimensions of your windows will impact on the price and quantity of the window shutters you require. Generally, you can expect to pay less for standard sized windows, whilst you may find that unusual dimensions or unique designs can add a little to the price.

Shutters for a bay window, or a skylight for instance may run you a higher cost because they are more complicated to manufacture or install.

Materials

Plantation shutters are widely available in a range of different materials including PVC, aluminium and natural timbers. PVC and aluminium are the most cost effective options, starting from just $330* at The Blinds Gallery. Aluminium offers a sleek finish, whilst PVC is both durable and stylish, available in everything from white to greys.

Both aluminium and PVC shutters are an affordable solution ideal for every room in the home, including wet, humid areas like the kitchen and bathroom. Real timber plantation shutters will come at a higher cost per window, but are the perfect option for adding an organic feel throughout the home. Aluminium shutters can be made to any standard powder coat colour, so that you can match the colour scheme of the interior or exterior decor of your home.

Designs

In addition to the variety of different materials available, you will find that there are also a number of different types of plantation shutters on the market such as sliding, hinged, bi-fold or fixed shutters.

Sliding shutters are perfect for doors or large spaces as they can be easily pushed aside for easy access to the outdoors, whilst hinged or bi-fold shutters offer privacy and flexibility.

Fixed shutters are the simplest option to install and provide great security, acting as a deterrent for potential home intruders.

Thinking about how you want to use your windows and what kind of function you’d like your window coverings to have is a good place to start when selecting plantation shutters.

Installation

Whether you choose to do-it-yourself or have your shutters professionally installed will also factor into the total cost of your new window coverings.

Whilst DIY installs will typically cost you less, you’ll likely need to invest in some tools and materials to get the job done. Professional installs can save you a lot of time and stress and will help to ensure that your warranty stays intact.
