Plantation Shutter Cost Per Window
Most people start by asking what shutters cost per window, and it is a good way to think about a project. A standard bedroom window and a two-story great room window are very different jobs, even when they use the same material. Here is how window type affects where you land in the range.
| Window Type | Where It Usually Falls in the Range |
| Standard single or double-hung window | Low to middle of the range |
| Wide picture window or bay window | Middle to high, since it needs more panels and dividers |
| Arched, circle, or specialty shape | Top of the range, since each one is built to a custom template |
| French doors and sliding glass doors | Middle to high, depending on door hardware and bypass tracks |
A typical home mixes several of these, which is why whole-home totals vary so much. During your consultation, we price every opening individually so you can see exactly where the money goes.
Cost by Material: Hardwood vs. Eclipse® vs. Faux Wood
Material is the single biggest factor in the price of plantation shutters. Each option has a place, and many homes use more than one.
Hardwood Shutters
Our hardwood shutters are handcrafted in Suwanee, Georgia from basswood and poplar. They are lightweight, stable, and can be painted or stained in finishes from classic white to rich wood tones like espresso and pecan. Hardwood is the go-to choice for living rooms, dining rooms, and bedrooms. Expect roughly $60 to $450 per window. See our full line of custom wood shutters [link: https://blindsbynoon.com/shutters/wood-shutters/].
Eclipse® Polyresin Shutters
Eclipse® shutters are made from a solid polyresin that will not warp, crack, or peel in humidity. That makes them a smart pick for kitchens, bathrooms, and laundry rooms, especially in Georgia summers. They generally price below hardwood.

Faux Wood and Vinyl Shutters
Faux wood and vinyl shutters give you the plantation shutter look at the lowest price point. They are easy to wipe clean and hold up well in kids’ rooms and high-traffic spaces. Expect roughly $45 to $300 per window.
| Material | Per-Window Range | Best For |
| Hardwood (basswood and poplar) | $60 to $450 | Living rooms, dining rooms, bedrooms |
| Eclipse® polyresin | $45 to $300 | Kitchens, bathrooms, humid rooms |
| Faux wood or vinyl | $45 to $300 | Kids’ rooms, laundry rooms, tighter budgets |
What Affects the Cost of Shutters?
Beyond material and window type, a few other details change your final price:
- Number of windows. More openings means a higher total, though the cost per window stays roughly the same.
- Window size. Larger windows need more panels, more louvers, and sometimes divider rails.
- Louver size and frame style. Wider louvers and decorative frames can shift the price slightly.
- Mounting. Inside mounts sit within the window frame; outside mounts cover the trim and may need extra framing.
- Who builds them. National retailers add wholesale and distributor markups before the shutter ever reaches your home.
Why Factory-Direct Shutters Cost Less
Blinds by Noon has designed, built, and installed custom window treatments in Georgia for more than 30 years. We build every plantation shutter ourselves in our 50,000-square-foot facility in Suwanee, which means there is no distributor or middleman between the workshop and your windows. Your shutters are installed by our own team, never subcontractors, and backed by a limited lifetime warranty.

Financing and Turnaround
Financing: If spreading the cost over time would help your budget, ask about financing during your consultation. Your design consultant can walk you through the options currently available.
Turnaround: Because every shutter is built in our own Suwanee facility, you are not waiting on a national supply chain. You will get a production and installation timeline along with your quote. On installation day, a typical home takes just a few hours, and our installers clean up before they leave.
Are Plantation Shutters Worth the Price?
Plantation shutters cost more up front than most blinds or shades, but they tend to pay for themselves over time:
- Home value. Shutters are treated as a permanent fixture and can return roughly 75% of their cost at resale. See why plantation shutters add resale value [link: https://blindsbynoon.com/plantation-shutters-home-resale-value/].
- Energy savings. Their insulating properties can cut heating and cooling costs by up to 30%.
- Lifespan. Well-built shutters last 25 years or more, far longer than most fabric window treatments.
- Low upkeep. A quick pass with a soft cloth or duster every couple of weeks keeps them looking new.
How to Save on Plantation Shutters
- Mix materials by room. Put hardwood where guests see it most and Eclipse® or faux wood in kitchens, baths, and secondary rooms.
- Watch for seasonal offers. We often run promotions in late fall and early winter, our slower months.
- Buy factory-direct. Skipping the retailer markup is the easiest way to get more shutter for your money.
- Get an exact quote. Online averages are a starting point. A free in-home measurement tells you your real number.
