Our shutters prices start at £340m2.

Both types are excellent, we typically recommend MDF if you are looking for a painted finish. The MDF shutter is extremely strong and hardwearing, they are heavier than hardwood shutters, thus there are restrictions on how wide each shutter panel can be made. Hardwood is recommended for stained finishes, large panels and shaped shutters. At Dobbs, 90% of all the shutters we sell are made from MDF.

Our friendly and knowledgeable advisor will guide you through all the different options available for your new shutters to ensure you make the correct decision.

Options to consider.
- Hardwood, MDF or PVC shutters, MDF is our most popular shutter.

- Size of the louvres, our most popular louvre sizes are 63mm & 76mm.

- Colour of the shutter, Pure White is our most popular colour.

- Control rod louvre operation or invisible easy-tilt louvre operation, Invisible Easy-tilt is our most popular option, this gives a more modern and contemporary look to a shutter. A control rod on a shutter gives a more traditional appearance.

- Colour of the hinges, most shutters have a matching painted hinge, other hinge colours are available including stainless steel, antique brass, chrome, black and gold.

- Mid-rail or no mid-rail, on some occasions we will recommend a mid-rail in your shutter which is a horizontal fixed profile, this is often positioned to match a mid-rail in your window design. Shutters over 1800mm require a mid-rail for strength.

- Split tilt or full tilt, we can make the bottom louvres operate independently to the top louvres in your shutter panels, this option is great for privacy as you can close the bottom section for privacy whilst still allowing light into the room through the open top section. The split tilt can be at any height, not just halfway.

- Full Height, Cafe Style, Tier on Tier or Track shutters, our advisor will guide you to make the correct decision. Full height shutters are our most popular option and cover the entire window. Often customers like the idea of Tier on Tier shutters however a full height shutter with a split tilt is often a better solution. Track shutters are ideal for large glazed areas and bi-fold doors.

- Panel Configuration, how many panels do you require on the shutter? We configure the shutter to match your window, if your window has 3 panels, we will normally advise you to have 3 shutter panels.

Curtains take between 4-6 weeks from ordering to installation and roman blinds take 4 weeks. Most other blinds take 2-3 weeks, hardwood and MDF shutters taking 12 weeks, U.K. made PVC shutters have a 4 week lead-time. We make most of our products in our Lincoln factory and soft furnishing work-rooms, on some occasions we can offer a speedier turnaround time.
