Highprofile Classic Timber
Highprofile Classic timber shutters are a designer’s go-to choice for a timeless window treatment. Our shutters are 100% real timber in a market filled with imitations. Available in Poplar, Paulownia and Basswood, we have perfected the timber plantation shutter design over three generations, resulting in a range of shutters with a flawless finish, engineered strength, and an enduring appeal.
Why Timber Shutters?
Plantation shutters are window furnishings that have stood the test of time, which means you are investing in an enduring style that won’t date. They are the only window furnishing that allows you to control light and airflow while maintaining privacy and can be totally customised to suit traditional or contemporary spaces with any design scheme.
- 100% One Timber Species
All our shutters are crafted from the highest-quality single-timber species. Unlike many other shutters on the market that are manufactured with low-grade timber or a composite core wrapped in a thin timber veneer, all Highprofile Classic shutters are 100% poplar or 100% basswood. In other words, they’re better quality and more durable. - A Flawless Piant Finish
Our shutters are finished with the same 2-pack polyurethane paint you find in high-end kitchens and cabinetry – giving them a polished, uniform finish each and every time. Unlike inferior products painted with a Nitro Cellulosic paint that is prone to streaking and chipping, our 2-pack paint finish is durable and tough. - Your Imagination Is Your Only Limit
Highprofile Classic shutters are completely customisable – no matter how creative you like to be. We offer a truly bespoke experience allowing infinite customisation. Feel free to stay traditional or explore different shapes, colours and textures to let your individual personality shine through. - Flawless.
- Hand Selection For The Perfect Grain
Our stained timber shutters are crafted from the very best basswood timber known for its superb, distinctive wood grain. Each and every piece is carefully hand-selected to ensure the grains are fine and even without knots or imperfections, creating a better-quality appearance. - We Go The Extra Step For Sustainability
We’re passionate about minimising our environmental impact, so we only source timber from sustainable forestry and our unique approach to construction also enables a more efficient yield from every single tree. - Affordable Luxury
Our Highprofile Classic plantation shutters are made using the finest traditional craftsmanship – but without the high-end price tag you’d expect. Being a specialist in shutters, we’ve honed our craft over decades and quite simply, it’s our volume that allows us to keep our prices so low.

PVC Shutters For The Budget Conscious Customer
- Solid Construction
Constructed with 100% PVC extrusion, each blade has an aluminium insert for additional strength and durability. - Perfect For Wet Areas
Unlike timber shutters, full PVC shutters are virtually waterproof and are ideal for bathrooms, kitchens and laundry rooms. - Perfect For Small Windows
Compared to timber and aluminium, PVC is a heavier material and is therefore more suited to standard sized and small windows. For wider windows, consider our affordable Highprofile Elements shutters which combine a timber frame with PVC blades. - A Flawless Paint Finish
Our painted shutters are finished in a modern 2-pack polyurethane paint that provides a premium durable finish to your shutters. - Low VOC
All of our interior shutters made with PVC meet Australia’s VOC standard levels for health and safety. They are also UV resistant; therefore, will not yellow over time. - Don’t Break The Budget
The Highprofile Poly plantation shutter looks like a timber plantation shutter but without the higher price tag. Although it has fewer bespoke options, it is the perfect shutter choice for those who want the look of luxury for less.

Highprofile Avenir has the largest single panel expanse reaching up to 1100mm wide, without compromising any of the structural integrity of the shutter. - It Won’t Sag or Crack
