While there are numerous options available for homeowners seeking that ideal window treatment, shutters have long been a popular choice due to their timeless and practical appeal.
Within the realm of shutters, one particular type that stands out is the Perfect Fit shutter. In this blog post, we will delve into this attractive and convenient window covering option. Read on to discover the benefits of Perfect Fit shutters and learn crucial tips for their selection and installation.
What are Perfect Fit Shutters?
Perfect Fit shutters are a versatile type of window shutter designed to seamlessly integrate with your windows. They are specifically engineered to fit snugly within your window frame, eliminating the need for additional fittings or drilling. These custom-made shutters offer a clean, streamlined finish and deliver a range of benefits that can make them an ideal choice for your home’s renovation.
Perfect Fit Shutters, crafted in the UK, present a one-of-a-kind, innovative shading solution that seamlessly blends style, convenience, and durability. These shutters are a must-have for today’s homeowners, thanks to their effortless installation process and minimal upkeep demands.
How do Perfect Fit Shutters differ from other shutters?
The key difference between Perfect Fit shutters and other window shutters such as a traditional shutter, plantation shutters, faux wood shutters or even real wood shutters is that they have a unique fitting system. Perfect Fit shutters are attached directly onto the frame of uPVC windows using a bracket system, thereby avoiding the need for drill holes or other fixtures. This ensures a flawless fit that complements your window’s design perfectly and allows you to cover very large windows easily.
The Perfect Fit Shutter offers a distinctive feature of opening along with the window or door, keeping your window ledge free from clutter. These shutters are directly fitted to the uPVC window frame, providing a sleek and slimline look from both the interior and exterior. With the ability to tilt the shutter louvres to any angle, you have complete control over light and privacy – whether you prefer them fully open, closed, or some place in between.

Allows in more light and gives better views of the outside
Because the louvres sit closer to the glass and there is less framework than a conventional shutter. Additionally, with 63mm louvres, you have complete control of light and privacy. Also, Perfect Fit shutters have considerably less framework than standard shutters, allowing for an improved view through to the outside.
Can be easily removed for cleaning or decorating
Perfect Fit shutters can be easily removed for deep cleaning or when you want to paint or redecorate the area surrounding your windows. This makes them a highly practical option for homeowners who like to change up their interior decor frequently.
Leaves window sills clutter-free
Since Perfect Fit shutters are fitted within the window frame, there is no need for additional space on your windowsill. This keeps your windowsill clutter-free and allows you to maximise the available space in your room.
Styles of Perfect Fit shutters
Perfect Fit shutters are available in various styles, each with its unique features, making them a versatile option for any home.
Full height: These full height shutters cover the entire window frame and provide complete light control and privacy. They are ideal for bedrooms and rooms that require more privacy.
Café style: Café-style Perfect Fit shutters cover only the lower section of your window, providing privacy while still allowing natural light to enter the room. These cafe style shutters are suitable for living rooms and kitchens where you want to maintain a good balance between privacy and light.
Tier-on-tier: This tier on tier style shutters features two sets of shutters, one on top of the other, offering maximum light control and privacy. The two sets can be operated independently, allowing you to open the top half for natural light while keeping the bottom half closed for privacy.

Can I install Perfect Fit shutters myself?
Perfect Fit shutters are designed to facilitate a straightforward DIY installation process, however, for those with limited experience, getting them perfect can still prove to be a tricky and awkward task.
When you use a professional shutter fitter, their services will usually include a preliminary consultation and measure up whilst they discuss your requirements and create your order. For this reason, it often makes sense to also use them for the fitting. This is usually included in the price and gives you an assurance that your new blinds have been installed to a high standard.
