Plantation Shutters Melbourne + Australia

Looking for a modern and timeless solution? Our premium designed Plantation Shutters offer the perfect balance of style and function.

Made from timber or aluminium blades, our Venetian Blinds are modern and functional, offering excellent privacy, light control and ventilation. Easy to use, Venetian Blinds allow you to open and close the blades to any position and control the direction of sunlight throughout your room or home.

They can be recessed or face fitted, meaning the Venetian Blinds can be installed inside the window frame or on the architrave bordering the window. In addition, Venetian Blinds can be locked into position at the bottom using a pin and bracket system which makes them suitable for glass doors or windows which are frequently opened and closed.

A great choice to co-ordinate with Curtains, Drapes , and Tiebacks.

The difference in our Venetian Blinds is in the detail. We use a top of the line technically superior hardware system. Perfected by years of extensive research and development, the operating system has been designed for precision. Our Blinds are also designed with extra componentry as standard, at no extra cost, to ensure the most durable and long lasting Venetian Blinds available.

Choose your fabrics by borrowing our large full-length samples to compare the fabric weights, transparencies and colours in your own home. Compare your favourite fabric choices at large scale with your paint colours, flooring + furnishing, and view them in different lights. It’s the best way to start.

PVC Shutters

In this lounge room, you’ll see one of the most popular options right now – the combination of a Roller Blind and a Sheer Wave Fold Curtain in front. It’s a modern look that suits a range of styles and it’s also highly functional.

The Roller Blind is automated so you can control it to any height with the touch of a button, ideal for rooms that get strong sun rays and shifting light conditions throughout the day.

The Sheer Curtains in front don’t just look pretty, they diffuse light and offer daytime privacy – and also improve thermal insulation.

PVC Essential Shutters

For a striking look opt for a Decorative Rod which can be finished with rings or finials. Decorative in nature, rings attach to the Rod and allow window treatments to easily open and close. Finials, the decorative pieces at the end of a Rod, allow you to customise your look. Decorator Rods can be used as runners so they function like a track or they can be slotted into a Curtain heading as shown for the Eyelet Curtain style.

Design options.

Frames

Select from Australia’s largest range of frame designs to match your Shutters to the style of your interior. Our custom range of frames are designed to fit the style and size of your window and are mounted onto a wall or window. The Shutter panels are then mounted inside the frame for a beautiful, professional finish.

Blades

Many Curtain fabrics are made uncoated and have a separate lining added to them to create a Blockout Curtain. Although tightly woven without any coating, these fabrics offer a softer look and drape. They provide a higher level of insulation and light control than sheer fabrics.

Stiles

Astragal stile

Stiles support the blades in a Shutter panel. This stile closes the gap between the panels. The best choice to eliminate gaps of light for superior light control and privacy.

Butt stile

The panels meet together without any additional moulding.

Rabbet stile

The panels interlock to give more light control than the Butt stile.

Colours.

Our Cellular Blind range has a choice of motorised solutions such as wall charger, battery pack, or hardwired connection. Our Cellular Blind Automate® CL 0.8 motors and suite of controllers can be completely integrated to achieve the perfect Automated experience.

Shapes.

Roller Blinds are one of the most popular window treatments for any room of the home. They’re incredibly versatile, can be automated and are cost effective.

While there will be small light gaps when using Roller Blinds in a corner window, they are minimal. For main living areas where you don’t need complete blockout, this can be a streamlined and affordable window covering solution.

In this photo, we’ve designed Blockout Roller Blinds under matching Bonded Pelmets.

Control options.

Clearview

The Curtain Track you select can either be a discreet track designed to drop away or a decorative track that enhances the look of your Curtains. In contemporary homes it’s most common for a minimalist Curtain Track to be used. Whereas in traditional interiors, decorative Curtain Rods have been gaining popularity.

We cover everything there is to know about curtain rods, tracks and headers in this article.

Centre Tilt Rod

Another decision is whether to use a Pelmet or not. A Curtain Pelmet is a decorative and functional element used in window treatments. It is a horizontal board or fabric covering that is mounted above the window, concealing the Curtain Rod or Track and the top of the Curtains or draperies.

Pelmets are used in both traditional and modern homes and can achieve a designer look. They also minimise heat transfer through windows, adding to the thermal benefits of your curtains.

Offset Tilt Rod

Finally, you can find Tiebacks or holdbacks to finish the look of your perfect Curtain. Tiebacks are used to gather and secure Curtains in an open position. They are available in various materials and designs, including fabric, metal or wooden materials. Although they are less common in contemporary homes, tiebacks can add a touch of elegance and functionality to your window treatment.
