Designing with Plantation Shutters in Melbourne: Tips and Ideas

Some fun, effective tips and ideas when incorporating plantation shutters for windows into your design scheme include:

  • Be bold. Don’t be afraid to let your beautiful plantation blinds and shutters be the focal point of any room. Choose striking colours or interesting materials to draw attention to them rather than view them as mere practical necessities.
  • Choose a mixture of new and vintage furniture and other decor to play to the strengths of the classic appearance and modern functionality of indoor plantation shutters.
  • Carefully position unique objects, furniture items, artworks, or plants to draw the eyes to your impressive window dressings.

How to Maintain and Care for Your Interior Plantation Shutters?

While cleaning and maintaining your plantation blinds shutters is critical to keeping them in perfect working order and looking great, the process is relatively straightforward and intuitive. The following steps are recommended to keep your plantation shutters in Melbourne in tip-top condition:

  • Remove dust regularly: A vacuum cleaner with a soft brush attachment is the perfect tool for this job. Position your shutters for maximum access and work carefully to remove loose dust and debris.
  • Wipe with a soft, dry cloth: Work carefully and methodically to catch any dust the vacuum cannot dislodge, paying particular attention to crevices and areas where dust accumulates. A micro-fibre cloth is perfect, as it will not scratch delicate surfaces and tends to attract dust statically.
  • Use a damp cloth: Unless a spillage or other accident has caused severe staining, you should not need to use chemical products for this step. If this is the case, be sure to choose non-toxic, gentle cleaning products that are safe for a wide range of surfaces. Generally, water should be enough, but exercise caution with the amount. Wring the cloth out thoroughly until no liquid comes out, as it is possible to warp wooden interior plantation shutters with excess fluid, which is unnecessary anyway.
  • Dry thoroughly: If you have windows that can be opened, consider doing so to create airflow past the open slats. Alternatively, a rotating fan pointed in that direction can be highly effective, as can direct sunlight. Adjust the position of the slats periodically to ensure even drying and prevent water spots or dust from adhering to the moisture.

It should be enough to perform this routine once a month. Always move the slats or ‘louvres’ carefully to avoid damaging them. Our plantation shutters and blinds in Melbourne are robust and durable but are not designed to be mistreated or handled roughly.

Pairing Melbourne Plantation Shutters with Other Window Treatments

While they look elegant and classy by themselves, it is perfectly feasible to pair your indoor plantation shutters with other practical and decorative elements, such as outdoor blinds or curtains, for even greater effect.

FAQs About Plantation Shutters Melbourne

Well, there are many factors you need to consider before buying plantation shutters. We will discuss some of them here:

Quality of material

The quality of material used in making plantation shutters decides the longevity and strength of the shutters. Timber, aluminium, PVC and other synthetic are common materials used in making of plantation shutters. Timber plantation shutters Melbourne are the best material if you want more customisation or if you are looking for blinds for shaped windows.

Types of controls for plantation shutters

Plantation shutters in  Melbourne more often are made using three types of different control. The most common control type is called Clearview, the centre tilt rod, hidden and motorised. Clearview and Hidden controls make the shutter look more modern and are the easiest to clean as they don’t have a tilt rod in the centre or on the front side of the louvres.

Types of frames for plantation shutters

When installing the best plantation shutters, the panels can be mounted directly or using a frame. That is determined by how much depth you have in your window reveal. It is much easier to install shutters with a frame if the windows are out of square, or if you have more than one panel.
There are two main types of frames used for shutters called L-Frames and Z-frames. L-Frames can be used for both face or revile fitting while Z-Frames are used for revile fit only. These frames are designed with an edging that overlaps around the four sides of the window. Z-Frames give you more room to adjust the panels if the windows are not square. Also, they conceal any gaps between the shutter frame and window revile.

Size of louvres

Today most modern shutters are made using three different sizes of aerofoil louvres, 63mm, 89mm, or 114mm. The difference in louvre width will change the appearance and functionality of your shutters. For example, you will only get a couple of blades if you have a short window and you use the 114mm louvres. If you have tall windows and choose to use 63mm louvres, then your shutter will look busier. I think that’s why most people end up buying shutters with 89mm blades. 89mm louvres are remarkable because they are not too big and blends in seamlessly with most homes and architecture. When it comes to cleaning your plantation shutters Melbourne, you will also have fewer louvres to wipe.

Yes, you can. If the height of the shutter is over 1500mm, the top and bottom section of blades divide automatically by a middle-rail. Otherwise, you can select where you want to split each section.

Buy from a reputable brand.

Choose a brand that has a reputation in the market and offers high-quality, highly functional and custom plantation shutters.

Ask for samples

Ensure that the company you choose should be able to offer you a complete and finish sample of plantation shutters. You can check the quality of the finish and construction of plantation shutters Melbourne.

Proper measurements of each window

No two windows are the same, and you need to ensure that the company takes measurements of all the windows and construct plantation shutters in Melbourne accordingly.

Thermal Insulation

Ensure that the plantation shutters Melbourne installed in your home offer thermal insulation. PVC and timber plantation shutters are the best when it comes to thermal insulation.

The average life of plantation shutters is of 10-20 years. However, it also depends on the material used and how often they are used. Aluminium and PVC plantation shutters are the most durable shutters.

There are many materials used in the making of plantation shutters such as wood, aluminium, PVC Vinyl Chloride, foamed synthetics, and basswood. Aluminium and wood shutters are highly durable and last for years. Faux wood shutters are economical yet reliable. Choosing the best plantation shutters depends on your preferences, budget, a number of windows in your home and the amount of thermal insulation you want in your home.

There are a total of six types of shutters- full height shutters, tier-on-tier shutters, shaped shutters, café style shutters, fixed shutters, sliding shutters. When we discuss the material used in the making of plantation shutters, there are aluminium plantation shutters melbourne, faux wood shutters, solid wood shutters, synthetic shutters, vinyl shutters and basswood shutters. Also, there are waterproof shutters, bay window shutters, and conservatory shutters

Though white is the universally popular colour for plantation shutters Melbourne, there are many other hues you can try as per your home décor and your personal preferences. There are many shades of blues you can choose. Also, in recent years, dark stain or grey shutters are becoming popular due to the classic, timeless look they offer.

Basswood shutters have carved a niche for itself across the globe due to its versatility. They are highly flexible and versatile when it comes to designing and styling. You can paint, sand or stain them in any colour of your choice. Basswood plantation shutters in Melbourne are also highly reliable.

There are many factors to consider when we ask, what is the best material for plantation shutters in Melbourne ? The truth is there is no best material for plantation shutters. Saying one material is the best is like saying Toyota is the best car when you need a boat. Most timber shutters are not moisture resistant when PVC and aluminium is. And if you like big wide modern panels, then timber is better because of its lightweight. The most important thing is that the plantation shutter melbourne you purchase will look good on your window, function the way you want and built using suitable quality materials. Please feel free to get more info on the pros and cons of each material used to construct the shutter. Or speak to one of our plantation shutter experts for guidance on selecting the perfect plantation shutters or blinds for you.

Timber or PVC shutters are both highly durable, but lets first start talking about PVC shutters.
PVC shutters are resistant to moisture and are easy to clean and maintain. As the louvres of the PVC blade have an aluminium core and the louvres get extruded from a machine that makes the final shape more consistent and durable than timber. Hence louvres on PVC shutters will close more evenly compared to timber shutters. The con of having PVC plantation shutters melbourne are the material itself is heavy, so if you have large panels, they will sag over time and might need adjusting. We recommend that you use timber if you want your shutter door over 800mm in width.

Timber is the most popular material for making shutters worldwide for a good reason. You can stain Basswood or Teak shutters to add warmth and elegance to your home or paint it in any colour you want. Timber is also easier to carve and craft compared to PVC. You can make timber plantation shutter Melbourne to fit nearly any shape window. The only con with timber shutters is that timber is a natural product and it’s not perfect all the time. So, you might notice that the gap between the blades, when the louvres are shut more consistent on PVC shutters.

Conclusion: we recommend PVC shutters with an aluminium core if you have standard square or rectangle windows, or if you are installing shutters in a moist area like bathrooms.
If you like the natural stained timber colour look, or want wide shutter doors. The Basswood or Teak shutters are the best options for you.

If you are still unsure, please give one of our shutter experts to help guide you with your selection.

If you buy plantation shutters in Melbourne, you might spend around $400 for every square meter of plantation shutters. On average, timber and PVC plantation shutters cost around $1300 for a 1800mm by 1800mm size window.

Most of the homeowners end up spending between $1,450 to $3,360. However, plantation shutters’ cost depends on many parameters such as the number of windows, the average area of the windows, the total number of rooms in the home, and the materials selected.

Plantation shutters are magnificent. It improves the overall look of your home from both inside and out. Window shutters allow you to control light, and increase the value of your home. It will be the best addition to your home. All you need to do is to choose the best manufacturer and installer of plantation shutters in Melbourne.

The average cost of plantation shutters in Melbourne is $400 per square meter, even if you want a custom job. Wood shutters would cost around $400 per square meter installed, and the composite shutters would cost about $380 per square meter installed.

It depends on your preference, but there is a general idea that if you use plantation shutters in one window in a room, it is recommended to use them in every window of that room. If you have four windows in a room and installed plantation shutters Melbourne for one window, cover all three remaining windows with plantation shutters.

Though you can DIY plantation shutters in Melbourne, it is a complex and time-consuming task. Instead, it is advised to hire professional help.

One of the most popular window or Plantation shutters in Australia, vinyl plantation shutters are the least expensive ones of all the plantation shutters. However, they might have structural issues if the shutters are large. They don’t contain wood but have PVC or aluminium support for stability. Furthermore, they are also weather resistant and good for areas with a good amount of moisture. However, one of the best plantation shutters and reasons to install them is the cost. When cost is the parameter worth considering, you can go for vinyl plantation shutters. They are available in a wide range of types such as hollow vinyl plantation shutters, structured hollow vinyl plantation shutters, solid vinyl plantation shutters, solid vinyl with an aluminium insert and vinyl-clad wood shutters. Vinyl shutters are very durable and versatile and serve the core purpose brilliantly.

Also known as engineered wood, fake wood or faux wood, these composite plantation shutters are built from engineered wood. Here, MDF wrapped in a vinyl or PVC coating makes the shutters and they are very sturdy and also weather and humidity resistant. The downside to these shutters is the MDF is very heavy, so overtime the shutter panels might sag. If you don’t have a budget to install wood shutters, you can go for these composite plantation shutters as most of the characteristics of these both shutters are the same.

Wood plantation shutters are one of the most popular and preferred types of plantation shutters and you will see them around you more often. With the highest strength-to-weight ratio, they are very lightweight and strong plantation shutters. The most preferred wood plantation shutters are basswood plantation shutters.

They can be honed into custom plantation shutters with tailor-made shapes and sizes and you can also stain or paint them with colours of your choice. It is not possible with vinyl or composite shutters which are prefabricated into styles and colours. They are very attractive and give an aesthetic and sophisticated appeal to the room when installed. It will give a paradigm shift to the look of your home and every single penny you have spent worth it.

Aluminium is considered the best material for plantation shutters as it is relatively strong and sturdy and serves the purpose effectively and efficiently. It is the best option for outdoor choice. It has a single panel and also has locks for security making them ideal for the best plantation shutters. They look like timber shutters and offer superior durability and lifespan. There are standard designer colours, custom powder coat colours available with this choice.

Aluminium plantation shutters are always in high demand due to the simple yet magnificent look and appeal they offer to residential and commercial premises. You can have the best value for money.

Alycore plus pvc plantation shutters are very unique shutters with a co-extruded internal aluminium core which make the shutter’s structure more strong and sturdy. They are highly attractive, elegant and beautiful with the required strength, stability and precision. In addition to that, they are also more durable, energy-efficient and require low maintenance compared to other types of shutters. You don’t have to worry about yellowing, weathering and corrosion of the shutters with the engineered HSPVC polyvinyl material. This material can make one of the best plantation shutters in Australia. Also, the insulation is far better compared to other shutters and it provides the feel of real wood.

Experts believe that basswood is the best material for plantation shutters and offer superior flexibility for design and style to blend with your home style. You can also make them attractive by sanding, painting or staining them with any colour of your choice.

In addition to that, if you want to carve it with different creative shapes, an expert can help you with that easily. Also, basswood has a pale colour that makes it perfect for stain or paints to give a mesmerising view and creating one of the best plantation shutters in Australia. Moreover, basswood plantation shutters is very stable and does not warp compared to timbers such as poplar and durable compared to Palawnia and Phoenix Wood (Chinese Parasol Tree).

They are very stable and attractive shutters exactly like real wood shutters and have the scope for creative finishes such as painting, staining or wrapping. Made of thin slats of wood that are glued together, they are very affordable and at the same time, attractive. You can add an aesthetic appeal to your home with laminated shutters making it ideal for the best plantation shutters

When used for indoor plantation shutters, cedarwood resists warping, bowing and cupping. Like other window shutters, they can be painted and stained well to get the desired style or design. Also, these shutters are resistant to rots and insects and you can have a beautiful and sophisticated look of your room with cedarwood plantation shutters.

The main difference between Melbourne plantation shutters and standard interior shutters is that the amount of light you can allow to enter the room is adjustable. The tilting feature of plantation shutters for windows makes them more versatile and practical, whereas interior shutters can only be in an open or closed position, not in between. This is especially useful as the sun changes position during the day, allowing users to compensate and alter the lighting to suit their taste and comfort.

It may be a stretch to say that you need curtains with indoor plantation shutters, as they are perfectly functional and user-friendly without them. However, for aesthetic purposes or additional ‘blackout’ conditions when required, it is not a problem to use both. Sheer curtains are a nice touch of class, and additional curtains are a superb way to tie any design elements and colours in the room together whilst maintaining the privacy and light control provided by interior plantation shutters.
