Cost by material type

Composite shutters start from approximately £270 per m² — ideal for bathrooms, kitchens, and budget-conscious projects. Hardwood shutters range from £320 to £520 per m², offering a premium painted finish. Aluminium shutters from £420 per m² are the strongest and best for wide spans.

What makes shutters cost more or less?

How much do shutters cost also depends on window shape (arches and circles cost more), shutter style (tier-on-tier has more hardware than full-height), colour matching, and installation complexity. Bay windows and tracked systems for doors involve more templating.
