How that compares
Here is our simple build next to real wood shutters from other sellers, for the same window sizes. On all four sizes our whole range sits below The Shutter Store’s July sale price for its American Wood shutter. Its prices are sale prices from its own July 15, 2026 list[1], and it advertises free shipping; ours are before shipping, so add that before you compare.

| Bedroom window, 36 × 60 in | $400 – $500 | $523.74 | $300 – $600 |
| Living room window, 48 × 72 in | $640 – $800 | $838.31 | $600 – $1,000+ |

Blinds Chalet’s ranges are from its own guide to real wood shutter prices[2] and use its size bands (small, medium, large, sliding door), not these exact sizes. Paying someone to fit shutters adds labor: This Old House puts it at $65 to $100 an hour, about two hours a shutter[3]. We aren’t affiliated with any of these companies; prices and promotions change, so check with them before you buy. Every seller we’ve compared, side by side: Shutter companies compared.

Questions about cost
Why is it a range and not one price?
Because the exact price depends on details we confirm when we check your measurements: the panel layout, whether an opening needs a frame, how a handle or crank is cleared. The range covers those. Your quote gives the exact figure before you pay anything.
Are California shutters expensive?
They cost more than blinds, because each one is a piece of joinery built to one opening. Fitting them yourself means you pay for the shutters, not for a sales visit and an installation. The tables on this page show what each size costs from us.
Do prices include installation?
No. Our shutters are made for you to fit, and the prices are for the shutters shipped to you. If you would rather hire someone, any finish carpenter or blinds installer can fit them; you arrange and pay them directly.
What makes one shutter cost more than another?
Size first, since price follows the area of the window. Then the options: a higher moulding level, a higher paint stage, 4½ in louvers, a custom stain or colour match, and a mounting frame each add to it. Arched windows cost more than rectangles of the same size; half-rounds, angled tops and circles are priced by hand.
Do you charge in Canadian dollars?
Yes. Choose Canada and every price, here and in the designer, is in Canadian dollars.
