Why Choose Our Plantation Shutters in Wollongong
Plantation shutters are more than just a beautiful addition to your home—they also offer practical benefits suited to Wollongong’s coastal climate and varied housing styles. At Phoenix Blinds, we custom-make all shutters to ensure a precise fit and long-lasting performance.
Our plantation shutter range includes:
- Timber shutters with a natural, timeless look are ideal for living rooms, bedrooms and feature windows
- PVC shutters are designed to resist moisture, perfect for bathrooms, kitchens and laundries
We work with quality materials that are tested for strength, durability and UV resistance—making them ideal for homes in the Illawarra's sun-exposed and humidity-prone environments.
Customised to Fit Your Home
Every home is unique, and so are our shutter solutions. We begin with an on-site consultation to assess your space, take precise measurements and discuss your preferences.
Our team then creates a customised plan, ensuring your shutters not only function perfectly but also enhance your home’s existing design elements. You can choose from a range of louvre sizes, colour finishes, framing options and mounting styles.
Whether you want a clean, minimalist aesthetic or a warm, traditional look, we help you bring your vision to life with tailored recommendations.
Improve Insulation and Energy Efficiency
Plantation shutters are a smart way to boost energy efficiency in Wollongong homes, helping to regulate internal temperatures throughout the year. The thick, adjustable louvres act as a natural insulator, blocking heat during summer and preventing warmth from escaping in winter.
Independent studies have shown that plantation shutters can reduce heat loss through windows by up to 51 per cent, making them a great option for homeowners looking to reduce their reliance on artificial heating and cooling systems. With energy costs continuing to rise, investing in shutters can deliver long-term savings while increasing comfort and climate control.
Whether you are renovating, building new or simply updating tired interiors, plantation shutters from Phoenix Blinds offer the perfect blend of quality, value and customisation.
Designed for Wollongong’s conditions and installed by experienced professionals, our shutters will enhance your home’s style, efficiency and market appeal. To get started, contact our friendly team or visit our showroom to browse materials and speak with our team.
Will plantation shutters fit my window?
Due to the versatility of plantation shutters, they can be installed on the vast majority of windows, no matter their size or style. If you have a false ceiling (also known as a suspended ceiling), however, plantation shutters may not be suitable for installation. In addition to being compatible with the majority of windows, plantation shutters can also be installed on patio sliding doors, conservatories and French doors.
How many panels do you need for plantation shutters?
The number of panels needed for a plantation shutter installation will depend on the size of your windows and your style preferences. As a minimum, it is often recommended to have two panels per window so that the shutters can be opened from the middle. You may require more panels, however, if you have a large window or wish for a more traditional look. A bay window, for example, may have 6 panels. Our expert team will be able to provide advice on how many panels you require to create your desired plantation shutter installation. To see examples of plantation shutters, check out our gallery.
Are your plantation shutters made to measure?
To ensure plantation shutters can be installed correctly and look as you intended, it’s essential they are the right size. For this reason, rather than supplying one-size-fits-all plantation shutter panels, we create plantation shutters based on your unique measurements. We will complete a measure and quote, free of charge.
What colour can plantation shutters be installed in?
Plantation shutters can be installed in a variety of colours. For example, if you opt for timber plantation shutters you can choose the shade and stain of the wood. Both PVC and timber shutters can be painted in the colour of your choice but it is essential to use paints that are formulated for use on either PVC or wood to ensure the best finish possible. Our team is happy to provide expert advice on colour options.
How fast is the ordering and installation process?
This process can vary depending on the availability of materials and complexity of the job but usually, it takes around 8-10 weeks. Demand can also be a factor, but we will always endeavour to have your shutters ready and installed in a rapid timeframe without sacrificing quality. If you’re interested in having plantation shutters installed in your home or business get in touch with us today for a free measure and quote.

Plantation shutters are a simple and understated way to provide extra sun protection and privacy for your home. Our wide range of options includes different styles and textures, from modern and sleek designs to rustic wooden options. If you want to know whether plantation shutters are the right choice for your home, you can visit our showroom to explore the different options available to you.
Can plantation shutters work on a smart system?
Depending on the model and style of shutters, you may be able to use our shutters in a smart home system in a similar way you would use smart technology for curtains and roller blinds. If you’re keen to include smart blinds in your home, speaking to our team directly is the ideal way to decide which shutters are the best choice for your home and goals.
Can I view your plantation shutters before I buy?
Our showroom location provides an ideal way to view the different options available in person. Alternatively, we can bring samples of different materials and finishes with us when we provide an in-home quote and consultation for our services. Let our friendly team know what you’re looking for, and we’ll aim to pair you with the ideal shutters for your taste or preferences.
Do you offer bespoke plantation shutters?
As a plantation shutters Wollongong specialist, we hold a wide range of high-quality plantation shutters from top brands. We know that no home is identical to the next, and we ensure our comprehensive range includes solutions to fit a wide array of budgets and window sizes. We ensure the perfect fit from floor-to-ceiling modern panes to vintage, smaller and more obscure sizes of windows.
What is the best material for plantation shutters?
Our recommendation for most plantation shutters is to choose a hard-wearing, lightweight PVC material to ensure longevity. However, we also offer timber options for our customers, with a range of colourways and sizes to suit every area of your home. If you’d like low-maintenance shutters that stand the test of time, PVC is always our first suggestion for our Wollongong customers.
Can you use plantation shutters and curtains together?
Combining curtains with shutters can be an effective way to add texture and interest to windows. Provided your curtain pole isn’t flush to the wall, curtains and plantation shutters can be used together as a way to add versatility to the amount of sun you let into the home. As a stylistic choice, the practicality of shutters and a curtain design is an effective way to create your perfect interior design look.
