Wooden Shutters Handcrafted in Our Joinery Workshop
At Cavendish & Cole, we don’t just restore sash windows—we enhance them with beautifully crafted wooden shutters, designed and made to order in our Sussex joinery workshop. Combining classic style with practical comfort, our bespoke timber shutters are a timeless addition to any Georgian, Victorian, or Edwardian property.
Elegant light control, crafted for period homes
Perfect for adding privacy, insulation, and architectural detail, our internal shutters are made using traditional joinery techniques and can be tailored to match your existing windows—down to the last moulding.
Bespoke Timber Shutters, Made to Order
Every set of shutters we create is custom-built to your property’s exact specifications. Whether you’re fitting shutters into deep sash window reveals, bay windows, or arched openings, we’ll design a solution that blends seamlessly with your home’s original features.
We offer:
- Solid panel shutters for total blackout and traditional styling
- Louvered shutters for adjustable light and ventilation
- Tier-on-tier shutters for flexible privacy and light control
- Full-height shutters for classic elegance
- Custom designs for shaped or curved window frames
Crafted in hardwoods, softwoods or sustainable materials like Accoya, our shutters can be painted or stained to match your interior décor or sash window finish.
Why Choose Wooden Shutters?
- Thermal insulation – help reduce heat loss in winter
- Noise reduction – especially in busy streets or town centres
- Light control – adjust natural light without losing privacy

Our shutters are made with traditional mortice and tenon joints, finished with durable, breathable coatings, and installed with care by our in-house craftsmen.
Tailored for Period Properties
We specialise in working with homes where attention to detail matters. Whether replicating an original shutter design or creating something new in a heritage style, we’re able to:
- Match existing timber mouldings and profiles
- Design shutters that fit inside deep reveals or box sash casements
- Provide planning-friendly options for listed buildings
- Paint or stain in heritage colour palettes to suit Georgian or Victorian schemes
Our team has extensive experience in conservation-sensitive joinery, so your shutters will look as though they’ve always belonged.
From Workshop to Installation
All of our shutters are manufactured in our Sussex joinery workshop using high-quality, sustainably sourced timber. Once built, they’re finished by hand, delivered to your site, and installed by our own trusted team—never subcontracted.

At Cavendish & Cole, we know a beautiful window or door is only as good as its finish.
