We are happy to announce the release of the Betta Blinds and Awnings Shutter Range, comprising of two main categories: Australian Made and Imported Shutters.

Both are excellent options for providing shading and privacy with modern aesthetic appeal for your home or business space.

Selections include: Standard Hinged, Double Hinged, Bay Windows, Corner Windows, Tier On Tier and Special Shapes. Choose from Timber, Hybrid and Poly materials to get the best option to meet your needs. 

Betta Shutters can readily be installed into Bay and Corner Window openings with the combination of our Bay or Corner Posts with T-Posts.

Abbreviations: 

L = Panel hinge left
R = Panel hinge right
D = D-Mould e.g. L-DR: The D-Mould is attached to the right hand panel and right closes over left.
T = T-Post. Always measured from the left to the centre of the post.

Shutter Dividers fall into two catogories, Tier on Tier and Midrails. Dividers are required when shutter heights are 1800mm and over, and a second divider is required when the height is 2700mm and over. This can be a combination of either Tier on Tier and one or two Midrails. Divider heights are measured from the base of the recess (inside), or base of the frame (outside), to the centre point of the divider.

Example 1: If the ordered height is 3600mm, and Tier on Tier is ordered with the divider at 1800mm, 2 Midrails will be required, one on the top and one on the bottom tiers. 

Example 2: If the ordered height is 3600mm, and Tier on Tier is ordered with the divider at 2700mm, 2 Midrails will be required on the  bottom tier.

Horizontal T-Posts are available with Tier On Tier installations in Betta Timber, Poly and Hybrid Shutters. (Not available with Betta Poly Shutters - Australian Made.)
