Made-to-Measure shutters in St Albans
Unidrape supplies and fits made-to-measure plantation shutters throughout St Albans, from the Victorian terraces near the Abbey and the conservation areas of the city centre to newer homes in Marshalswick, Fleetville, and London Colney. Every survey and installation is carried out by our own team from our Welwyn Garden City showroom, around 15 minutes from St Albans via the A414.
We offer three ranges. Our Austin hardwood shutters are FSC-certified, available in a wide range of paint and stain colours with louvre sizes from 63mm to 114mm. For kitchens, bathrooms, and other high-humidity rooms, our Dulwich faux-wood vinyl shutters won’t warp or swell. If you need a faster turnaround, our Hampton solid vinyl shutters are UK-manufactured and available in as little as four weeks from order. We don’t supply MDF shutters – they can warp over time, particularly in kitchens and bathrooms
, so we made the decision not to stock them.
Visit our showroom to see the full range of finishes and louvre sizes in person before you commit – most customers find it makes the decision considerably easier.

Benefits of window shutters
People sometimes overlook window shutters as a window-dressing option. Often, customers initially think about curtains or blinds, without considering plantation shutters as an option. Some of the benefits of using Shutters in your home are:
Sound and thermal insulation
When the shutter doors and louvres are closed, the solid panels provide excellent sound and heat insulation properties. This works both ways, so in the summer months they can keep the room cool and save on heating bills in winter.Stylish and luxurious
Shutters are a timeless, stylish and eye-catching window treatment. They work in any room, with waterproof choices for kitchens and bathrooms, and blackout blinds hidden behind the shutter frames in bedrooms.Our other services in St Albans:
