What Is Shutter and Shade?

Shutter and Shade is a two-in-one solution designed for complete comfort. It combines a traditional plantation shutter with a discreet, built-in cellular blackout pleated blind hidden behind the frame.

This pairing offers:
• The structure and style of a shutter
• The room-darkening performance of a blackout blind
• A clean, integrated design that works for modern and traditional interiors

It’s an ideal option for homeowners who want the beauty of shutters but also need practical light control.

Room Darkening Benefits

While shutters alone reduce light, Shutter and Shade goes much further by blocking ambient light and glow. The cellular blind behind the shutter helps darken rooms significantly.

Especially important for:
• ✅ Shift workers and light-sensitive sleepers
• ✅ Young children’s bedrooms and nurseries
• ✅ Media rooms or home cinemas
• ✅ South-facing windows where glare is an issue

The pleated blind operates independently and can be used with the shutters open or closed for maximum flexibility.

Insulation & Energy Efficiency

The cellular (honeycomb) blind structure helps trap air, reducing heat transfer through the window.
• ✅ Helps keep rooms warmer in winter
• ✅ Reduces solar heat gain in summer
• ✅ Can contribute to energy savings year-round
• ✅ Ideal for draughty sash windows or single-glazed homes

Combined with the shutter’s frame, the system forms a dual barrier that enhances comfort in any season.

Noise Reduction

Pairing the cellular blind with a lightweight wood shutter creates an additional barrier to reduce sound from outside.
• ✅ Damps down traffic noise and street sounds
• ✅ Creates a more restful sleeping environment
• ✅ Especially helpful in roadside properties

While not soundproof, it’s a noticeable improvement over shutters or blinds alone.

Design Options & Customisation

You can choose from:
• ✅ Multiple shutter colours and finishes
• ✅ Slat sizes to match your room style
• ✅ Soft, neutral tones for the blackout blind
• ✅ Various control options

Our team can guide you on which combinations work best for both style and function.
