Real shutters,
no drilling
required.
Perfect fit shutters clip directly into your uPVC window bead. No fixings in the wall, no damage to the frame, no fuss. They move with the window when you open it — and look like they were built in.
Clips in. Stays put.
Opens with the window.
A perfect fit shutter has an outer frame fitted with a clip system that snaps into the internal bead of a uPVC window — the same groove that holds your double-glazed unit in place. Nothing touches the wall. Nothing touches the plaster.
Inside the frame, horizontal louvers run the full width of the panel. A tilt rod on one side connects all the louvers so you can adjust them together — from fully open to fully closed — with a gentle push. Tilt them up for view, tilt them down for privacy, or close them completely to block the light.
The clip system applies no force to the uPVC profile beyond what holding the glass bead already does. Landlord-friendly and fully reversible.
Because the shutter is fixed to the frame, not the wall, it stays in place when you tilt, swing, or slide the window open. No awkward gap between blind and glass.
Louvers rotate to any angle. Let in full light, filter the glare, or close off entirely — without touching the window itself.
What sets them apart
Six things that make perfect fit shutters a genuinely different choice from hung shutters, blinds, or off-the-shelf alternatives.
Traditional shutters need a frame screwed into the wall around the window reveal. Perfect fit doesn't. The clip attaches to the window bead only — nothing penetrates the wall surface.
Hung shutters stay fixed when you open the window, leaving the shutter behind. A perfect fit unit travels with the sash or casement, so ventilation and coverage aren't mutually exclusive.
Angle the louvers downward to block the view in from the street while still letting daylight through. Tilt them up to see the sky. There's no position that leaves you with nothing — you always have some control.
Shutters have no operating cords at all. Louvers are adjusted by hand or via the tilt rod. There's nothing to entangle or remove — child safety is built into how they work, not bolted on.
Our shutters are made from basswood or moisture-resistant MDF, with a factory-applied paint finish that resists chips and yellowing. Unlike fabric blinds, they don't stretch, fade, or sag over time.
Because the shutter sits within the window frame rather than in front of it, it reads as part of the window from the street — neater than a blind that hangs in front of the glass.
One window. Three ways to fit it.
Perfect fit shutters come in three panel configurations. The right one depends on how you use the room, how much light you want to control independently, and how much of the view you want to keep.
A single panel running the full height of the window. All louvers controlled by one tilt rod. Simple, clean, and the most popular choice for living rooms, bedrooms, and hallways.
Two independent panels stacked — one for the top half, one for the bottom. Open the top to let light in while keeping the lower panel closed for privacy at street level. Good for front-facing rooms.
Covers only the lower half of the window. The upper half stays clear, giving you full sky and treetop views. Popular in kitchens and dining rooms where you want light from above without the pavement looking in.
Painted, stained, or natural
Our shutters come in four core finishes. All are factory-applied and available on both basswood and moisture-resistant MDF panels.
A smooth, satin-finish paint in pure white or warm cream. Works with virtually any interior. Resists chips and yellowing better than brush-applied paint. Available in both colours on all panel sizes.
A warm mid-tone oak stain that shows the grain of the basswood. Suits rooms with wooden floors or furniture. Only available on basswood panels — MDF doesn't take a stain finish in the same way.
Deep, rich stained finishes for rooms that suit a bolder look. Works well against light walls where contrast is part of the design. Available in walnut and mahogany tones on basswood panels.
Painted in light grey or deep anthracite for a contemporary feel. Increasingly popular in new-build properties and rooms styled around cooler palettes. Available on MDF and basswood.
Your frame, your choice
The outer clip frame is available in six standard colours to match your uPVC window profile — no visible mismatches.
Where perfect fit shutters work best
They're not the right answer for every window — but when the conditions line up, it's hard to beat them.
The tier-on-tier configuration lets you keep the upper window clear for light and sky while the lower panel stays closed against the street. You get the view without the exposure.
Closing the louvers fully gives good light block — not complete blackout (some light comes around the edges), but enough to sleep in without relying on curtains as well.
Café-style shutters cover the lower sash only, so you keep your sky view and the light from above. The kitchen doesn't feel closed in, but neighbours walking past can't see directly in.
Perfect fit clips into each window section individually, so a three-section bay gets three independent panels. No awkward frames straddling corners — each section is treated as its own window.
Because nothing is fixed to the wall or the surround, perfect fit shutters come off cleanly when you move out. You take them with you — or leave them as an added-value feature for the landlord.
Tight spaces where a blind on a bracket would stick out. Perfect fit sits flush within the frame, keeping the window recess clear. No cord to catch on when you're passing through.
Other perfect fit options
Real louvred shutters — no drilling, clips to your window bead. Full height, tier-on-tier, or café style.
Clean, minimal roller blind that clips in and travels with your window. Blackout and light-filtering fabrics.
Soft pleated fabric with top-down/bottom-up option. Compact stack, good for smaller windows.
25mm aluminium slats in a no-cord clip-in system. Adjustable tilt, no hanging cords, easy to wipe clean.
From people who've had them fitted
"I was nervous about the no-drilling claim but they genuinely just clipped straight onto the window bead. The surveyor measured up, they came back two weeks later and fitted the whole bay in about an hour. Looks like they were made for the house."
"We went with tier-on-tier for the front room because we're right on the pavement. Top panel open, bottom closed — it's exactly what we wanted. The tilt rod feels solid, not flimsy, and the finish on the louvers is really good quality."
"Had café-style done in the kitchen last month. The light from the top half of the window is lovely and nobody can see in when we're at the sink. Wish we'd done it years ago instead of putting up with a roller blind that always got greasy."
Things people ask before they book
If your question isn't here, call us or book a free survey — we'll have a proper look at your windows and give you a straight answer.
Will perfect fit shutters work on my windows?
They work on internally-beaded uPVC windows — the type where the glazing bead (the strip that holds the glass in place) is on the inside of the frame. This covers most modern uPVC casement, tilt-and-turn, and sliding windows. They don't work on aluminium frames, timber frames, or externally-beaded uPVC. Our surveyor will confirm this at the free visit before you commit to anything.
Do they really not need any drilling?
Correct — no drilling into walls, windowsills, or frames. The clip system grips the internal glazing bead of the uPVC profile. It uses the same groove that holds your double-glazed unit in. Nothing pierces the wall surface or the frame itself.
Can I still open my windows with the shutters fitted?
Yes — this is one of the main reasons people choose perfect fit. The shutter attaches to the window frame, not the wall, so it swings, tilts, or slides with the window when you open it. You don't need to remove or fold anything out of the way first.
Will they completely block out the light?
Closing the louvers gives good light reduction — enough for most people to sleep comfortably. But some light does come around the edges of the frame, particularly at the top and bottom, because the shutter clips inside the window rather than overlapping it. If you need complete blackout, a blackout roller blind may suit you better — or a blackout lining behind the shutters. We'll talk through the options at your survey.
What size are the louvers?
Our standard perfect fit shutters use 63mm louvers, which is the most common size and gives a good balance between view-through when open and coverage when closed. For larger windows we can discuss 89mm louvers which give a more architectural look with fewer horizontal lines across the glass.
Are perfect fit shutters suitable for bathrooms?
MDF-core shutters are moisture-resistant and hold up well in bathrooms with good ventilation. Basswood shutters are less suitable in very humid or steamy rooms as the wood can swell over time. We'll recommend the right core material for your bathroom at the survey based on the room's layout and ventilation.
How long does fitting take?
Most windows take 20–40 minutes each. A typical living room bay window is usually done in an hour to an hour and a half. We'll give you a realistic time estimate before the fitting day so you're not waiting around longer than you need to be.
