Auckland shutters- Why solid wood?
Solid wood offers depth, weight, and the pleasing acoustics only timber provides. Auckland’s tight, even grain delivers a smooth painted surface and clean shadow lines across louvers or solid panels. It is a durable choice for busy homes and light commercial settings where touch and longevity are essential.
- FSC-certified New Zealand timber – grown under intensive sustainable forest management.
- Consistent grain for a smooth, low-texture paint finish.
- Robust fixings and stable frames for long-term alignment.

Auckland solid wood shutters for every room: What we offer
Installation and service
Our process is clear. You book. Chris or Pete visits, measures, and advises on proportions, rails, and fixing points. You receive your price there and then. After a 50% deposit, we place the order. Around 12 weeks later, the office schedules a fitting, and our carpenters arrive with dust sheets, protect walkways, fit carefully, then remove all packaging for recycling. You settle the balance once you are happy.
Shapes, bays, and tracking
Auckland is versatile. We build to almost any form, so the shutters feel integral, not added on.
Bays: square, circular, and angular bays
Arches and triangles: precise templates for curved and pitched openings
Doors and wide spans: tracked systems for smooth movement
This is where custom shape wood shutters excel - accurate templating and careful trimming by our in-house carpenters.
Colour and finish
The Auckland Range is available in 13 standard colours or any custom colour you choose. We match to leading paint libraries or a supplied reference for a seamless interior scheme.
