With the exception of the Ramin Hardwood shutters, Simply Shutters manufactures almost all the shutters available on this website from its Suffolk premises.

Simply Shutters Ltd will sell directly to the Trade, Construction Industry, Retail Outlets and end user. We guarantee our prices to be the lowest because we manufacture on site. This cuts out layers of cost by means of reduced transport charges and other company’s profit margins so there is no compromise on the quality of the product. We believe that we are the only exterior shutter company of our type within the UK to do this.

We use various methods in the construction of the shutters that we build. If you purchase from us, depending on the product that you have selected, you will find that we have either used stainless steel screws, sonic welding or bonding or a combination of them all.

All Simply Shutters products are built to the highest standard and we won’t release an order until we are absolutely happy with it. We know that if we are happy you will be nothing short of delighted because we pride ourselves on our workmanship.

All of our polypropylene products are offered to retail customers / end users with the benefit of a 7 day no quibble money back guarantee and are supported with our lowest Price Promise. Should you discover that you could have purchased a product of a similar nature and quality elsewhere for less, within 30 days of purchase, then Simply Shutters Ltd will match the lower price and further reduce it by 10%. These offers exclude Trade clients who enjoy their own particular benefits.

Simply Shutters welcomes Trade enquiries who will benefit from particularly favourable terms and a very quick order turn round time. We know that going back to a job once you have left to start another can be costly and annoying for both you and your customer. We are able to dispatch the vast majority of Trade orders received within a maximum of 5 working days unless otherwise notified. No other company can you offer you the speedy dispatch times that we are able to offer on a regular basis. The challenge is there so why not put us to the test? Call us today on 01842 814260.

Any information provided by you will not be sold on to third parties and will be kept safe and secure. We value your privacy (see Privacy Statement) as if it were our own.


Simply Shutters Sponsors Great North Run.

Simply shutters assisted with sponsorship for a team entry in the 2008 Great North Run that was held earlier this year. The 2008 Bupa Great North Run took place on Sunday 4th October and with approximately 52,000 runners taking part.
The Bupa Great North Run is the world’s biggest half marathon and covers a distance of 13.1 miles (21km) through the roads of Newcastle Upon Tyne.

The weather on the day was unexpectedly warm for the North East as most of the country had unsettled weather so all the runners set off in good heart led by Olympic gold medalists Chris Hoy and Rebecca Adlington.
Many runners and teams were there to raise much needed funds for charity and Simply Shutters helped the cause by sponsoring an all ladies team.

Sisters Julie and Wendy Haddock and good family friend Pippa were there to raise money for the Diabetes UK and the Stroke Association and between them they raised almost £2000.
The three girls crossed the line together in a highly creditable time of 2hours 57 minutes given that they have never done this kind of thing before.
The men’s race was won by Olympic marathon bronze medallist Tsegaye Kebede who  led from the start and finished in 59mins 45secs.

Gete Wami, the reigning World Marathon Majors overall champion, won the women’s race by a second in 1hr 8mins 51secs, with Britain’s Jo Pavey coming in third place.


Ramin Hardwood shutters.

Aug 26 2008

Simply Shutters have launched a new range of Ramin hardwood shutters to compliment their maintenance free decorative products.

This new range will be available in 57 different pre-set width and height options to meet most requirements. There is sufficient timber on the panels to allow for final trimming to size.

The natural mottled effect of the Ramin wood is a distinct plus when choosing to use a stain and will add depth and texture to the final finish.

Ramin is a natural hardwood that will last much longer than the softwood alternative because there is a much tighter cell structure that will limit moisture absorption.

All Ramin hardwood shutters sold by Simply Shutters are FSC (Forest Steward Council) certificated to prove that the timber comes from regulated sustainable sources. Look out for these symbols for peace of mind on the source of any timber product.

Capable of being used as doors for interior as well as exterior applications this new range will serve a demand that Simply Shutters could not previously satisfy until now.

Online Ordering Overhaul

Aug 26 2008

Simply Shutters has just completed a huge overhaul of its online shop ordering facility to make the process even easier for customers to use.

The carriage for each defined area or zone is now clearly shown on a carriage charges map and this has been carried through to the online ordering pages.

The high tech, bespoke designed shop provides a marvellous facility where the image of each product ordered changes as the style or colour is changed to enable customers to see exactly what the end result will look like.

When in the online shop, customers now have the opportunity to have orders delivered to a different address to where the invoice may be sent and are further assisted with easy to use drop menus for zones and counties within each zone.

Orders for countries outside of the most popular zones are catered for as well, as Simply Shutters Ltd delivers worldwide.

An easy to use password setting and retrieval facility has also been incorporated.

If any client is unsure or concerned about using the system, they are most welcome to telephone the Simply Shutters sales dept where they can receive step by step advice on how to complete the transaction as they do it. The online shop is supported and protected by SECPAY (now renamed as paypoint.net) to ensure complete safety and security for all online transactions,


Simply Shutters Sponsors Mr G’s Trios Ten Pin Bowling league.

Simply Shutters Sponsors Mr G’s Trios Ten Pin Bowling league.

Simply Shutters have been sponsoring the local Ten Pin Bowling League situated in Brandon Suffolk for the past season. The league is well attended every Wednesday night with 2 x 21 week seasons being played each year.

Sponsorship takes the form of cups and trophies that Simply Shutters, in connection with Mr G’s, supply.

Players of all ages and abilities play in the league and competition is fierce but friendly between the teams.

Trio’s or 3 person teams usually have 4 or 5 members that rotate in and out so that everybody gets a fair number of matches during the season. The additional players also provide much needed cover when another member cannot make it.

Mr Nolan Guthrie, the owner and proprietor of Mr G’s is a popular figure within the club and no slouch when it comes to bowling himself. He is supported by his wife and two sons who assist with the catering/ restaurant and bar activities as well as administering the bowling leagues run there.

This year has just seen the end of the first 21 week season of 2008 with team Going Spare winning the league outright for the first time. Going Spare is sponsored by Simply Shutters Ltd and is a team that was made up of individual players that did not have a team of their own or know anyone else.

Paul Millar, Director of Simply Shutters Ltd and a member of the Going Spare bowling team himself, reckons that this achievement is remarkable given the team’s beginnings and the overall quality and standard within the league. The winning team members are:

Gavin Cox (team captain)
Dale Winterslow
Jonathan Tibbs
Paul Millar.

The league was won last season by the RAY Team.

Gavin Cox, team captain says that this year will be the last time that Going Spare will bowl as a team as they are not ‘going spare’ any more! From next season Going Spare will be known as the Alley Gators because Simply Shutters is splashing the cash again with new 1960’s retro look bowling shirts complete with logo making them arguably the snappiest team in the league!

New players of any ability are always welcomed
