This is an example of a window shutter refurbishment. We are often asked to refurbish or remake window shutters for period homes. This is a satisfying job as it’s tricky but makes a real difference to someone living in that house.
Window shutters are more complex than you imagine due to the bi-fold system and they often fold into a recess in the existing wall. We can build new ones from scratch but in this case we removed them and worked on them in the workshop. The new pieces of timber were spliced in and waxed to match the original timber.
Ironmongery is very specialist on window shutters. We use In Brass for our fittings.
