What are Traditional Victorian Shutters?

Victorian shutters were a staple of homes throughout the period, providing a classy finish to these windows. They have continued to remain popular in the years since, bringing a traditional feel to all kinds of properties, whether modern or classic, contrasting or complementary. Here at Appeal Home Shading, we believe that Victorian shutters can be the perfect addition to certain living spaces as we offer a modern new take on a design classic.

At Appeal, we offer window shutters that, while not being strictly traditional Victorian window shutters, are heavily inspired by them. Instead, we’ve updated their design with more durable materials, a smoother fit and a wide range of style options. We offer our wooden shutters in Premier, Classic and Eco Wood ranges, meaning you can choose the ideal shutters for your home, and each one is bespoke to you. And, with the option of several shutter styles, you can get designs that have a Victorian look.

Appeal’s range of classic wooden shutters is sure to have a design that suits your home. Our range of bespoke, made-to-measure window shutters is full of brilliant designs, and you can customise them with unique finishes and models of shutters to give your home the look you’ve been striving for. We can also offer competitive prices, and we have no trouble creating custom orders to suit any needs. Find out more by getting your free consultation from Appeal Home Shading today!

Do Appeal Offer Victorian Shutters?

At Appeal, we don’t provide the same traditional Victorian shutters as you’d find in Victorian homes. While designs have moved on, so too have the levels of performance and reliability that homeowners expect. It’s because Victorian shutters could begin to show signs of wear and tear after a few years. While wood is a sturdy material, older timber was known to wear down quickly, meaning the shutters became less and less useful over time. Problems like repeated use, general wear and tear and even exposure to water could cause these shutters to fade, rot and even crack.

As a result, Appeal offers Victorian window shutters that take the classic look of traditional designs but update them for your home. You can get shutters with more resilient timber, meaning you’ll get a long-lasting design that performs for decades longer than older options. Additionally, our Victorian shutters can offer superior performance to traditional designs. For example, our shutters offer better privacy and lighting control, and you can even benefit from improved thermal performance to keep you warm and comfortable all year round.

Victorian Shutters Styles

Appeal also has Victorian window shutters in a wide choice of styles. Firstly, you can choose the most Victorian-inspired option in our range; the solid panel design. This design is constructed from solid wood and almost exactly what you’d see in a Victorian home, meaning most people won’t be able to tell the difference at first glance. As a result, these shutters are perfectly suited to period homes, while their exceptional performance and strength make them just as useful for a more modern property.

However, we offer several other styles to help you achieve the perfect look. You can choose classic full height shutters with louvres made in sets, tier-on-tier shutters that allow you to open individual sets, and informal cafe and tracked shutters that give your home a chic, stylish feel wherever you install them. And, if you have uniquely shaped windows, we can offer our Victorian window shutters with bespoke shapes! We can fit arched, round or triangular shutters to fit your requirements, meaning no job is too complex for us.

Benefits of Victorian Window Shutters

By installing our traditional Victorian shutters, you can combine old style with new quality for your home. For example, our wooden window shutters are low-maintenance, durable designs, and they won’t wear down after a few short years. Additionally, new construction methods allow us to fit made-to-measure Victorian window shutters for your home that cover the full aperture of your windows. As a result, you can get shutters that are perfect for controlling light and privacy, giving you more control over your living space.

And, by choosing our Victorian window shutters, you’ll be in control of creating a bespoke design for your home. We offer shutters in our Premium, Classic and Eco Wood ranges, and shutters are also available for bay windows and other unique shapes. Our custom colour range is also extensive, meaning you should have no trouble finding the perfect shade for your home. Whether you have windows in a kitchen, bathroom or bedroom, our traditional Victorian shutters bring a sense of style to any space.
