External louvres and external window shutters are the ultimate cost-effective solution for shade, privacy and security that add decorative flair to any architectural project. They perform an important practical function by passively cooling the home, introducing privacy and filtering UV rays. They also accentuate the external design of a building, they are available in different materials such as aluminium, timber, faux wood and more. ArchiPro features the best louvres and shutters from trusted suppliers across Australia.
The size of standard external shutters correlates to the standard size of windows, however, this varies from build to build and may differ depending on the region and date of the project. As a general rule of thumb, shutters should extend the full height of the window, with a traditional width of 30 centimetres (12 inches).
