While standard shutters are hinged to a side frame, tracked shutters run along a discreet top and bottom rail. This is the definitive solution for wider expanses, such as bi-fold doors or large patio openings, where the weight of the panels requires structural support to ensure a smooth, effortless glide every time you open them.

Absolutely. Because our shutters are finished to the same high standard on both sides, they are frequently used to create flexible living spaces. A tracked system allows you to “wall off” a dining area or home office with a sophisticated architectural partition that still allows light to filter through the louvres.

We offer two distinct track options to suit your flooring. For a seamless transition, we can often utilize a “recessed” track that sits flush with your floor finish. Alternatively, our low-profile surface tracks are designed with chamfered edges to be as unobtrusive as possible, ensuring they remain easy to clean and safe for daily foot traffic.

Because we prioritise structural integrity over “quick fits,” the number of panels depends on the material chosen—be it our high-performance Thermalite or our robust Hardwoods. Generally, we can cover widths of up to several metres. For wider openings, we often recommend a ‘bi-fold’ configuration where panels fold back against each other, or a ‘bypass’ system where panels slide behind one another.

No. Unlike free-hanging blinds or lightweight alternatives, our tracked shutters are precision-engineered to stay silent. The top and bottom guide system ensures each panel is held firmly in place, providing a solid, rattle-free installation even when your patio doors are open to a summer breeze.
