Shutters are a stylish alternative when you are choosing window treatments
If you are looking for an alternative to curtains or traditional Roman or Venetian blinds, then window shutters can be a good solution.
Shutters offer timeless elegance while suiting all styles of property, and custom-made shutters from Drapes by Design can be made to fit all types of windows and doors - even tricky spaces like bay windows or angled windows.
Our team of window treatment experts provide personalised guidance, helping you choose from an extensive range of louvre sizes and materials, including wood, PVC (ideal for humid or high-traffic areas) and composite materials for added strength. Whether you prefer a natural wood finish, painted shutters, or a lacquered appearance, we have options to match your style.

Custom-made window shutters for homes across Waikato and the Bay of Plenty
Bi-fold shutters
Bi-fold shutters fold open in sections, making them ideal for larger windows or doors where there is less space surrounding the opening.
Sliding shutters
Sliding shutters move horizontally and are perfect for wide windows or patio doors where smooth operation is essential.
Tailor-made shutters for awkward spaces
Angled, triangular, or unusually shaped windows, often found in loft conversions or gable-end properties, can pose a real challenge if you want to install shutters. At Drapes By Design, we can work with you to create custom window shutters specifically designed to accommodate these distinctive spaces.
We can also design shutters to work around problem areas like radiators, window handles, and pipes using precise cutouts or modified frames. This gives you easy access to essential fixtures without compromising the elegant appearance of your shutters.
Low-maintenance
Our window shutters are carefully crafted from premium-quality materials, selected for their ability to withstand daily use and environmental conditions. Maintenance is straightforward, with shutters requiring only occasional cleaning to stay looking their best. Unlike fabric window treatments, shutters are resistant to fading, discolouration, and wear, making them an ideal long-term solution. Invest in our custom-made shutters, and you’ll enjoy lasting beauty, practicality, and convenience without the hassle of extensive upkeep.
Enhanced comfort
Installing window shutters offers significant advantages when it comes to insulation and energy efficiency. Our custom-made shutters help regulate indoor temperatures, reducing heat loss in winter and keeping rooms cooler in summer. This enhanced insulation can lead to noticeable reductions in your energy bills, offering both immediate and long-term savings.
