    Great Quality & Service

    Posted 23 October 2025

    I cannot praise The Great Shutter Company enough - our windows had been replaced & we wanted shutters to keep the house cool in summer, direct sunlight away when watching TV (without losing the light), & to improve security & the visual appeal of the property. Scott came to survey & understand our objectives - he went through the options and made his recommendations - which were spot on. The shutters arrived on time & were installed in a day with a minimum of disruption. There was nothing to clean up. If you want great quality & service we can't recommend them highly enough.

We offer a wide range of window shutter materials and styles to suite varying budgets. You may have firm ideas of what you want or prefer guidance as to why some materials just make better plantation shutters than others. Shutters don't need to be a minefield and The Great Shutter Co. will provide free, impartial advice in a concise way to help you find the right solution for your home and budget. Our sister company The Smart Blind Co. specialises in motorised blinds, outdoor blinds, roof blinds and awnings.


Please note we do not repair or install other retailers products. We offer a measure and fit service of our own high quality products.


The Great Shutter Co. was founded by Mike Schnuppe to provide a local service offering affordable luxury to Winchester and surrounding areas. Mike has been at the forefront of the plantation shutter industry for over 20 years during which time he has launched numerous shutter ranges into the UK market for the UK's largest shutter distributor and so knows the materials, profiles and specifications intimately.


Mike also created a shutter partnership with John Lewis retailing the world's best-selling shutters and the Great Shutter Co. offers these exact same quality shutters as part of its product offering but backed up by a truly local survey, measure and fit service with that personal touch.

We have some core principles that The Great Shutter Co. stands for and we believe these will ensure that you receive both the product and design that will result in you being delighted.


Passion

We have a passion for plantation shutters, because they really provide an amazingly versatile solution, which will enhance your windows. Made to measure and beautifully crafted to improve the look of your windows, we know you will be delighted.


Inspiration

You are at the heart of what we do. We work together with you, listening to your ideas and needs, and this provides the inspiration to create a solution that is stylish, practical and suites your home and the way you and your family live.


Design

We are happy to provide our advice and expertise for free and design the perfect shutter set with you. We will bring samples of materials, frames and colour swatches so that you know exactly what you have chosen. There is no obligation to use us, but we would love you to love our shutters and the service we provide.


Quality

We will demonstrate why a window shutter from The Great Shutter Co. is a quality shutter that will last for years to come and will prove to be an investment. With a 3 year warranty as a minimum you can rest assured that we only supply and fit the best.
