What are
bifold shutters?
Just like traditional plantation shutters, bifold shutters allow for complete control of light and privacy levels through the opening and closing of the louvres.
Bifold shutter panels are hinged together, allowing for the shutters to be folded in a concertina motion for unobstructed views out of windows, whilst saving space.
This makes bifold plantation shutters a popular choice in homes, particularly for living rooms, conservatories and patio doors.

Why choose bifold shutters?
Bi-fold shutters, also known as folding shutters, are a popular type of window treatment used to control light and privacy levels in your home. When closed, they appear similar to traditional plantation shutters, with louvres/shutters that are adjustable to control light.
Bifold shutters are ideal when you want unobstructed access or a view out of a window or door. The concertina folding of bi-fold doors means you can neatly fold your shutters to the side when not needed.
They are ideal for spaces where space is limited or where regular plantation shutters would be too obtrusive to use. For instance, bi-fold shutters are ideal for patio doors in extensions, helping to control lighting and privacy in the evening, but can fold away when the doors are in use during the day.
How do bifold shutters work?
Bi-fold shutters or folding shutters are constructed with individual shutter panels that are connected with hinges. These hinges allow for the panels to be neatly folded in a concertina motion, taking up little room when folded.
At The Shutter Studio, we can customise your bifold shutters to your exact preference and requirements, tailoring panel size, louvre styles, and finishes to ensure your shutters complement your space.
Where can bifold shutters be installed?
Interior bifold shutters can be installed in any location as regular window shutters or door shutters. As bifold shutters fold away neatly to offer unobstructed access, they work effectively for use around doors (particularly patio doors and French doors).
Bifold shutters can also be installed on a range of windows. For instance, they can be effective when installed in living room windows, bedroom windows, and kitchen windows, or any window where full access is desired.
Can I have bifolding shutters in tier-on-tier style?
Of course! At The Shutter Studio, as all of our shutters are made to order, we can create custom shutters tailored to your home.
For instance, we can combine our bifolding designs with tier-on-tier style shutters, as well as solid panel shutters, and full-length door shutters. Our bifolding styles are especially effective for shaped bay windows.

How to clean bifolding shutters?
We recommend regularly dusting the shutter panels with a dry microfibre cloth to remove any dust and dirt, paying particular attention to the louvres and behind the framework where dust can collect. Any fingerprints or marks can be removed with a babywipe.
How much are bifold window shutters?
The price of our shutters depends on the size of your windows or doors, and your chosen material. We can provide estimate quotations based on approximate measurements, just drop us an email with the approximate dimensions and a photo of your windows and we’ll let you know the rough pricing.
Can I have wooden bifold shutters?
Yes, you can choose from a range of materials for bifold shutters, including Basswood, Monterey Pine, Paulownia and then our fauxwood poly option. The best option will depend on the size of your windows and the moisture levels in the room as well.
We can also manufacture bifolding shutters in our Kent factory, with our UK-made basswood shutters.
