Great product

Great product, easy to fit and look great. Have ordered twice and although take a while to come, you are advised on this, but only after order has been placed. But then kept up to date with progress. The size you order is bang on accurate, so might want to order a few mm smaller so no issues when fitting.

Customer service was second to none

Customer service was second to none, they were so helpful when I spoke to them about my awkward windows in my old Victorian house. Shutters arrived earlier than expected and the delivery driver was so lovely.

We were super pleased with the quality and ease of putting them up, at first we were looking for the instructions manically but everything is online so make sure you realise like this. Once up they finished the room of beautifully and we are beyond pleased with them. Would definitely use this company again when we buy another house. We are sold! Thank you California shutters ☺️

Delighted with our California Shutters

Delighted with our California, cafe style shutters - the manufacturing quality and precision is excellent. Each shutter was well packaged, clearly labelled and had plenty of hardware. We fitted without issue.
They’ve transformed our home.
Our son had previously used California Shutters, and highly recommended them - each shutter is bespoke and made to order. They take a couple of months to arrive, however patience is rewarded by the quality you receive.
Thank you.

California shutters..

California shutters... made in China designed... in China. Although the shutters are of reasonable quality the timeframe in which these items took was crazy slow.

During the time of ordering and delivery I actually sold my house which meant that these were no longer needed. getting through to someone to get the order canceled was impossible and by the time this did happen... it was too late to cancel this order. Sales tactic... I think so.

So all in all, good shutter poor customer service.

Easy to order and measure

Easy to order and measure. It took along time for them to arrive but I had been given an estimated date which was about 3 months.
That said, they were easy to fit and fitted perfectly. I had used this company in my old house so knew it was excellent quality and wasn’t disappointed this time either 👍

Hi Vince,

Thank you so much for your review and for returning to us for another order.

We’re really pleased to hear that you found the measuring and ordering process easy again — that familiarity and confidence mean a lot to us.

We understand the wait can feel long, especially with bespoke shutters, so we really appreciate your patience. We’re glad the estimated 3‑month timeline helped set expectations, and even happier to hear that once they arrived, the shutters fitted perfectly and were easy to install.

It’s wonderful to know that the quality lived up to your previous experience in your old home — consistency is something we work very hard to deliver, so your feedback is truly appreciated.

Play Your Part For A Memorable DIY Experience

I've got loads of good things to say about the company after buying twice from them; each time white hard wood with mid rail and hidden connecting rods. I read with interest a one star review that was all about either measuring incorrectly or not following instructions (or both). I am not a professional but a keen and competent do it yourselfer of (now 73 years). My first order several years ago at the home I have just moved from, was for fifteen windows, which included three windows in each of two bays and French Doors. On measuring, I decided that it might be too gappy so I deliberately didn't follow the contractual advice given by the company and halved the figure you are advised to subtract. On receiving the shutters (on time and perfect) I went about installing (which I did in two days). I should have taken that contractual advice, as the fit was inevitably too snug. I was lucky as the house was a new build with dot and dab plasterboard and as I had bought the front of reveal type shutter, in probing the corner of the reveal found it had a metal band on the external and internal corner. The window reveals were remarkably square and all I had to do was peel the band off the inside of the reveal and a little bit of sanding and the frames all went in square (more by luck than judgement). Result happiness. Never had any problem s with the shutters in about seven years. Moved house November; another new build. This time on checking the company website, the measuring instructions were the same. This time (having learnt from my previous experience), I followed the measuring instructions to the letter. I received the order (ordered late November ETA mid to late February, came on time, fun tracking the container on the app). The order was complete, delivery as notified packaging exceptional. Unpacked each frame into its room. There was one very small window, which I did first. It fell into the reveal with the merest of heel of hand pushes, screws in, shutters pinned in, result happiness. I repeated this with the next six windows (one of which was inside the reveal) with no problems. My problem came with the kitchen window (the most awkward getting up on the worktop etc). I'd put the kitchen order on last as initially I was going to leave it as it's a nice bright kitchen and the windows are a good style. While I cogitated and waited for an upcoming sale (Black Friday perhaps?), I went off and measured five rooms to have sliding mirror wardrobes installed. That company wanted the full size of the intended space, floor to ceiling, side to side and whether it had an end panel. They wanted the full measurement and that is because their programme algorithms need a bit of complexity to facilitate the design (they're all in with no problems because I followed their instructions). Back to my California Shutter order and I didn't get the full size thing out of my head and as a consequence didn't make the contractual deduction. I've pretty much got away with it as again it's a new build with dot and dab plaster but a bit messier. It was only one out of eight but whatever my reasoning it was just carelessness and unnecessary. A salutary lesson then; California Shutters, like every other supplier of anything, has a contract with it's suppliers, it's staff and it's customers. If we all play our part correctly the result is nothing short of spectacular. The construction method is clever and easy, the finish is superb and the service quite remarkable. They've upgraded a few things. Nice long coarse thread screws, a ready mitred bead all round the inside of the frame hiding the screw holes and a variety of plastic cover plugs to hide any of the other holes. My thanks to Alex in Customer Services who quickly resolved a minor issue for me. Well done to the team.

Hi John,

We’re delighted that your first set of shutters served you well for seven years and that your most recent order arrived on time, beautifully packaged, and with the upgrades you noticed — we’re always working to refine and improve the product.

Your story is such a great reminder of how important it is to follow the measuring instructions exactly as provided. We completely understand how easy it can be for habits or other projects to influence the process, and we really appreciate the honest reflection. Despite that one tricky window, we’re glad everything came together well and you achieved another great result.

It’s wonderful to hear that installation went smoothly, the finish and construction met your expectations again, and that you enjoyed tracking the shipment and unpacking everything room by room. We especially appreciate your acknowledgment of the improvements to our hardware and frame design.

A big thank you as well for the kind words about Alex — we’ll be sure to pass them along. Our customer service team takes great pride in helping customers through every step, and your recognition means a lot.

Thank you again for your continued trust, your detailed feedback, and for “playing your part” in creating another successful DIY shutter installation. We’re thrilled to have you as a loyal customer and wish you many happy years enjoying your shutters in your new home.

This is my honest and completely…

This is my honest and completely transparent experience, as a kitchen and bathroom fitter I have extensive knowledge of fitting furniture items etc, however this is my experience, I took my measurements and submitted my order, at 9pm Sunday evening, then thought I better double check my measurements Monday at 8am , I did re check my measurements as measure twice cut once, yes the measurements differed which I double checked by a couple of mm, however I emailed straight away to California blinds to make my amendments and this could not be altered, I have never heard so much rubbish I. All my life, order placed 9am Sunday evening, asked to alter 9am Monday morning and told this was not possible as order is already in production, what a crock of sh*t, so my advise to anyone ordering blinds do not give them actual measurements what they actually ask for, as they do not take off a couple of mm all around which in my opinion would be the logical thing to do, they make them ti the measurements given, so anyone ordering, take your internal window measurement and and take 3mm off what you submit for ease of fitting, this small gab can be made up on the internal window measurement die reveal with dec caulk , - so just be careful when sending the easements as they do not take anything off and if your out by couple of mm it can be hard to get them to fit, luckily I know how to use a rail saw and got them to fit , also the delivery lead time they tell You when ordering is rubbish, I placed my order early November for delivery 8th Jan 2026, eventually arrived 5th Feb over a month late, so bare this in mind if your requiring your blinds by a specific date 👍

Dear Stephen,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.

We’re sorry to hear that you were frustrated with your experience, and we completely understand how important accurate measurements and smooth delivery are — especially for someone with your fitting experience.

To clarify the order timeline:

Your order was placed late on a Friday evening.
The amendment request was sent the next morning, outside our 1‑hour amendment window, which is stated clearly at checkout and in our Terms & Conditions.
Because of the time difference with our manufacturing partner, production had already begun by the time your message was received, meaning changes were unfortunately no longer possible.

For made‑to‑measure shutters, the factory begins cutting materials as soon as the order is submitted to maintain the quoted lead times, which is why amendments have a very strict deadline.

Regarding measurement deductions:
Our shutters are manufactured exactly to the measurements submitted, and all deductions for clearance must be made by the customer. This information is clearly outlined in the measuring guide and Terms & Conditions. This ensures customers retain full control over the final fit, as different installations require different tolerances depending on reveal conditions, plastering, squareness, and fitting preferences.

You mentioned needing to adjust by a couple of millimetres — this tolerance is expected and is why we advise customers to account for deductions themselves. For orders where the submitted measurements allow no clearance, we always do our best to suggest practical solutions, such as adjusting the reveal, which we discussed with you.

On delivery:
Your order arrived on 30th January, against an estimated window of 15th–29th January. While one day outside the estimate, it was not a full month late, and we apologise if any courier updates caused confusion along the way.

We appreciate your skills as a fitter and are glad you were able to achieve a successful installation.

Your feedback is still valuable, and we will continue to review how we communicate key information to make the process as clear as possible for all customers.

Kind regards,
The California Shutters Team

Very disappointing after a good initial experience

I previously purchased shutters from California Shutters and was impressed with the quality, which is why I placed another order. Unfortunately, this second experience has been extremely disappointing.

Two shutters ordered for the same guest room and installed side by side have visibly different frame widths, with a difference of approximately 4.5 cm, making them look completely mismatched and frankly unacceptable from an aesthetic point of view. The company’s response was that this was due to a 5 mm difference in window height, something no reasonable customer would expect to result in such a drastic visual discrepancy.

Despite acknowledging the issue, customer service refused any refund or replacement, stating that the shutters were “manufactured correctly” and placing full responsibility on the customer. There was no clear warning at the point of ordering that such a small measurement difference could lead to such a poor visual outcome.

In my view, this falls short of reasonable customer expectations for a premium, made-to-measure (and expensive) product. I am very disappointed with both the product outcome and the way the complaint was handled, and I would not order from them again.

Dear Alessandro,

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback.

We’re very sorry to hear that your second experience with us hasn’t matched the positive one you had before. We completely understand how disappointing it must be to install two shutters side by side and find that the panel designs differ.

To clarify the situation, the difference in appearance comes from the height measurements submitted for each window. Even a small variation in height affects the internal layout of a shutter panel, because the top rail, bottom rail, and spacing between slats must all fall within very specific minimum and maximum limits. Our manufacturer uses a mathematical design process to calculate the optimal rail sizes and slat configuration for each individual panel to ensure structural integrity and durability.

When two height measurements differ — even by a few millimetres — the resulting calculations for rail sizes can differ significantly, which can lead to panels that don’t match visually. For this reason, our measuring guide explains that, where shutters will sit side by side, the heights must be aligned to achieve identical slat counts and matching panel designs.

Because the products are made‑to‑order based on the exact measurements provided, and the manufacturer produced them correctly within the agreed technical parameters, we’re not able to offer a replacement or refund in this instance.

We appreciate your feedback regarding clarity at the point of ordering. While the guidance is included in the measuring documentation, we will review how this information is presented to ensure it is as clear and prominent as possible for future customers.

We truly are sorry that the final result didn’t meet your expectations, and we regret that this has impacted your confidence in us after a previously positive experience.

Kind regards

A £1,300 Order Disaster From Start to Finish - Still nothing...

We ordered our shutters on 1st November with an estimated delivery of 7th-12th November. We received no tracking from DHL, only CS emails from California Shutters. When I called for an update, I was told there had been a “delivery attempt” and that the shutters were damaged in transit - I don’t believe the delivery attempt ever happened.

After multiple calls, we were then told the order had been sent back to the factory for “investigation,” leaving us waiting yet again. We were offered a refund or a priority re-order, and chose to try again.

The re-order was no better. Delivery dates moved from 1st December, to 3rd December, to “today”… yet the parcel has sat at the Croydon depot since Monday with no delivery time. DHL now claims our postcode is incorrect, and California Shutters can’t be reached despite calling within their stated opening hours.

We still have no shutters, no clear update, and no idea where our £1,300 order actually is.

While DHL is partly at fault, California Shutters must take responsibility too. Based on our experience, I cannot recommend this company and would rather pay more for a reliable service.

Hi Amy,

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience, and we’re very sorry for the frustration you faced throughout the delivery process. We completely understand how disappointing and stressful it can be when courier updates are unclear or keep changing.

We did investigate the situation with DHL, and unfortunately there were multiple issues on their side — including the damaged parcel, conflicting scan updates, and the incorrect‑postcode message. We fully appreciate why these courier updates made the process confusing and why it felt like you weren’t receiving consistent information.

We’re glad to confirm that your shutters were successfully delivered on 5th December, and we’re sorry that it took longer than expected for the courier to resolve the issue and complete the delivery. Although some of the delays were outside of our direct control, we absolutely take responsibility for supporting you throughout the process, and we apologise that reaching us by phone was difficult during this time.

We truly appreciate your patience, and we’re sorry that this experience didn’t reflect the smooth service we aim to provide. If you need any further help, our team is here and ready to assist.
