Walk into any beautifully designed home, and you’ll notice one thing: harmony.
Every detail, from the colour of the walls to the grain of the furniture, works together.
Now, imagine adding shutters to the mix.
Could you get those shutters to perfectly match your existing furniture?
The answer is yes — but with some key details you should know before taking the plunge.
Custom wood stain: Bringing your vision to life
Matching shutters to your furniture is entirely possible if you choose shutters from our Select Ash Wood range.
This premium option allows for custom wood staining, providing a tailored solution for homeowners looking to create a seamless look.
Why is this option limited to ash wood?
Ash is uniquely suited for custom staining because of its natural grain, which absorbs colours beautifully, ensuring a finish that mirrors the look and feel of your furniture.
However, because custom stains involve extra work and materials, this service comes with additional costs.
These costs can only be calculated during a free, no-obligation survey, where we assess the specifics of your project.
But let’s pause for a moment.
Is a perfect match what you really need, or are there more cost-effective options that might work just as well?
Let’s see.
Explore the beauty of standard colours
Here’s a little secret: our standard palette of stains and colours for wooden shutters is so versatile that many homeowners find a near-perfect match without needing a custom stain.
These pre-selected finishes are designed to complement a wide range of furniture styles, from classic mahogany tones to modern oak-inspired shades.
Opting for a standard stain can save you time, money, and decision-making stress.
Think about it: does your furniture have to match your shutters exactly?
Or would a complementary colour bring even more depth and character to your space?
Sometimes, the contrast between two similar but distinct tones can create a striking effect.

While the price for custom staining varies based on shutter size and style preferences, it’s important to remember that customisation is an investment.
The beauty of shutters that match your furniture perfectly is unmatched, but so is the effort involved in creating that perfection.
Our free survey isn’t just about taking measurements — it’s your opportunity to explore all your options with our specialists.
Whether you choose standard or custom staining, the survey helps you make an informed decision that balances your budget with your aesthetic goals.
Is a perfect match worth the cost?
Here’s a question worth considering: how much does it matter to you that your shutters match your furniture perfectly?
If you’ve spent years curating a cohesive look for your home, custom staining may be the ideal choice.
On the other hand, if you’re flexible and open to a near match or complementary colour, the savings can be significant.
Let me share a quick story.
A homeowner recently came to us with a deep walnut dining table they adored.
Initially set on a perfect stain match, they explored our standard palette during the survey and discovered a finish that, while not identical, brought out the warmth of their furniture in a way they hadn’t anticipated.
The result?
A stunning dining room they loved—at no extra cost for a custom stain.
What would you choose: a perfect match or a stunning complement?
The answer depends on your priorities, but knowing both options can help you decide with confidence.
