FAQs about Kitchen Shutters
Shutters are the best choice for kitchens because they don't absorb grease or cooking smells like fabric blinds. Our waterproof faux wood shutters are specifically designed to withstand steam and splashes, making them easy to wipe clean and completely warp-proof near sinks or hobs.
Cafe-style shutters are particularly popular for kitchen windows. By covering only the lower half of the glass, you block the view from passers-by while allowing maximum natural light to flood in across the top, perfect for brightening up your workspace. If you have a larger window or a kitchen-diner, tier-on-tier shutters offer more flexibility, allowing you to close the bottom panels for privacy while keeping the top panels opened.
Our kitchen shutter blinds start from as little as £182 per square metre, making them significantly more affordable than professionally installed alternatives, typically saving you up to 60%. Read our guide on how much DIY shutters cost for more info.

Why DIY Shutters are the Perfect Choice for Your Kitchen
As the "hub of the home," your kitchen requires window dressings that are as practical as they are stylish. Unlike fabric blinds that trap cooking odours and grease, DIY kitchen shutters offer a wipe-clean, durable solution that stands up to the heat and humidity of a busy cooking space.
100% Waterproof Faux Wood Solutions
Kitchen sinks and hobs create high-moisture environments. To ensure your window shutters don't warp or peel, we offer two specialist ranges:
- Premium UK-Made Faux Wood: Crafted from high-grade PVC (polyvinyl), these are virtually indestructible and delivered in just 7-9 working days.
- Essential Faux Wood: Our most cost-effective waterproof option, finished in our most popular shade of white for a crisp, clean aesthetic.
Versatile Designs for Every Kitchen Window
Whether you have a small window over the sink or large patio doors, our made-to-measure kitchen shutters fit perfectly:
- Café Style: The most popular kitchen choice. It covers the lower half of the window for privacy from the street while leaving the top open to flood your countertops with natural light.
- Full Height: Provides a sleek, uniform look. Adding a mid-rail allows you to operate the top and bottom slats independently, perfect for blocking glare on screens while keeping the room bright.
- Tier-on-Tier: Offers the ultimate flexibility for large windows, allowing you to fold away the top panels entirely.
Effortless Maintenance and Hygiene
Kitchens are prone to splashes and steam. One of the greatest benefits of faux wood shutters is the ease of cleaning. Unlike curtains, which require professional laundering, or metal blinds that collect grease, shutters simply require a quick wipe with a damp cloth. They are the most hygienic choice for areas where food is prepared.
