Frequently Asked Questions
Have a few questions before booking your design visit?
Here are some of the most common things our customers ask about our bespoke S-Craft plantation shutters, installation process, and aftercare.
What are S-Craft plantation shutters made from?
S-Craft shutters are expertly crafted using high-quality materials such as MDF, hardwood, or ABS (a waterproof polymer). Each material is chosen for its durability, strength, and premium finish, ensuring long-lasting style for any room in your home.
Are shutters better than blinds for insulation and light control?
Yes — plantation shutters provide superior insulation compared to traditional blinds. Their solid louvres help retain heat in winter and block excessive sunlight in summer, giving you year-round energy efficiency and comfort.
How much do plantation shutters cost?
Costs vary by room size, material and finish — from our cost-effective Antigua MDF range through to premium Fiji hardwood. The best way to get an accurate price for your home is a free design consultation, where we measure up and talk through the right range for your budget and windows.
How long does the design and installation process take?
From initial consultation to installation, the full process typically takes 8–12 weeks, depending on your material choice and customisation options. Our in-house team keeps you informed every step of the way for a smooth, stress-free experience.
Can I get waterproof shutters for bathrooms or kitchens?
Absolutely. Our Java range is 100% waterproof — made from durable ABS material that won’t warp, peel, or absorb moisture, making it ideal for high-humidity areas like bathrooms, kitchens, and utility rooms.
Do you provide aftercare or maintenance support?
Yes — every Saffron Outdoor Living installation includes aftercare guidance, plus optional maintenance visits if needed. Our shutters are low-maintenance, but we’re always on hand should you need assistance in the future.
