A business built on principles:

Pride - Just Shutters has an exceptional reputation in this lucrative niche of the window coverings industry. We are proud to be amongst the minority of brands that can boast genuine customer affection. Everyone from the fitters to the franchisees enjoy the warmth received from our happy customers. You only have to look on checkatrade.com to see our excellent feedback.

Standards - We supply the World’s finest Plantation shutters. The shutters are bespoke to every window, made to measure by skilled craftsman before arriving for you to fit. The more complicated the window the more impressive the fitted shutters look and the more rewarding the customer’s reaction! But don’t worry with our in-depth training and support you will have the confidence to take on all windows and doors.

Service - Our high standards translate into numbers; both in terms of happy customers, but also financially through up and cross selling, repeat purchases and recommendations.

The FASTEST GROWING niche of the ‘window coverings’ sector

Plantation shutters represent a modern, clean, eye catching alternative to dated blinds and curtains. They provide elegance and character in addition to privacy and added security. There's no wonder plantation shutters are the fastest growing window covering industry.

Your Just Shutters business will supply the finest plantation shutters in the World. Each shutter is made to measure, finished to the highest standard and supplied ready to be fitted in the customer’s home.

You do not need experience fitting shutters to build a successful business. For instance Kate has been with us just over two years and after starting from scratch, she is now probably one of the best fitters in the industry. She is also great with customers, which was actually the primary reason we employed her!
