Architectural aluminium plantation shutters
Make the outside work harder
Element 13 combines lightweight aluminium strength with a durable powder-coated finish for indoor rooms, wet areas and outdoor living zones. Adjustable louvres shape sunlight, airflow and privacy without visually closing the space.
Its wider-span capability and hinged, sliding, bi-fold or fixed layouts make it a strong starting point for patios, balconies, alfresco openings, doors and demanding interior applications.

Movement engineered around the opening
Hinge it. Fold it. Slide it. Fix it.
The right system depends on access, stacking space, tracks, wind exposure, fixing surfaces and how the opening is used.
Hinged panels
Direct access and full opening for suitable windows, patios and enclosures.
Bi-fold systems
Linked panels stack to one or both sides of a reviewed wide opening.
Sliding systems
Track-supported panels move across doors and broad openings with planned overlap.
Fixed applications
Permanent screening with fixed or movable louvres, subject to selected configuration.
Performance, explained honestly
Shade and privacy—not a sealed wall
Not completely waterproof
The material tolerates wet conditions, but moving louvres and panel gaps do not create a watertight room enclosure.
Not complete blackout
Closed louvres reduce light strongly, but glow can remain around blades, frames and panel joins.
Not automatically a security screen
Aluminium adds a strong physical barrier, but security performance requires appropriate hardware and documented specification.
Wind conditions require review
Exposed, elevated and coastal sites need project-specific fixing, span and wind assessment before manufacture.
Outdoor maintenance matters
Fresh water protects the finish
Regular cleaning removes airborne pollutants, dust and coastal salt before they accumulate on the powder coat and hardware.

Aluminium plantation shutters Perth
Outdoor shutters built around Western Australian living
LUXWORLD Element 13 aluminium plantation shutters are custom made for Perth indoor and outdoor applications, including patios, alfresco areas, balconies, wet areas, doors and suitable wide openings. The lightweight aluminium construction is protected by a powder-coated finish designed to resist moisture, corrosion, UV exposure and termite attack.
Choose hinged, bi-fold, sliding or fixed configurations with adjustable privacy, shade and airflow. Element 13 is advertised with span capability up to 2400mm, but the practical panel layout depends on configuration, site exposure, fixing surfaces and project engineering. Wider overall openings can often be divided into multiple reviewed panels.
Outdoor shutters, external shutters or aluminium shutters?
Customers use all three phrases when searching for adjustable shutters around alfresco areas and exterior openings. “Aluminium plantation shutters” identifies the material and louvred form, while “outdoor” or “external shutters” describes the application. Element 13 can also be used indoors where strength or moisture resistance matters.

Frequently asked questions
Practical answers about exposure, spans, finishes, configurations and care.
Ask LUXWORLD →What are Element 13 shutters made from?
Element 13 shutters are made from high-quality lightweight aluminium with a powder-coated finish designed for durability and corrosion resistance.
How much do Aluminium plantation shutters cost in Perth?
LUXWORLD Aluminium shutters start from $550 per opening. The final price depends on dimensions, configuration, tracks, posts, finish, installation, access and project-specific requirements. Enter dimensions in millimetres for an indicative estimate.
Can Element 13 shutters be used outdoors?
Yes. Element 13 is designed for indoor and outdoor use and can perform in wet, rainy and sunny conditions when correctly specified, installed and maintained.
Are Aluminium shutters suitable for patios and alfresco areas?
Yes. They can provide adjustable shade, ventilation and privacy around patios, alfresco areas, balconies and outdoor kitchens. They do not create a completely watertight or climate-sealed room.
What is the maximum Element 13 span?
Streamline advertises capability up to 2400mm wide. This should not be interpreted as every individual panel or installation automatically spanning 2400mm. Configuration, panel layout, tracks, posts, wind exposure and fixing conditions require review.
Which louvre sizes are available?
The current Element 13 product specification lists 63mm and 89mm louvre options depending on configuration. Confirm the available louvre and operating style during design review.
Which colours are available?
Standard colours include White, Cream, Black and Silver. Timber-look options include Light Cedar and Golden Oak. Selected Dulux Colorbond® colours and custom paint options may also be available.
Which operating styles are available?
Element 13 can be configured as hinged, bi-fold, sliding or fixed shutters. Fixed or movable louvres depend on the selected system and require specification review.
Are outdoor Aluminium shutters completely waterproof?
No. Aluminium and powder coat tolerate wet conditions, but adjustable louvres, frames and panel gaps are not a watertight building envelope. Wind-driven rain can pass through.
Are Aluminium shutters security screens?
They create a strong physical barrier and can support privacy, but they should not be promoted as certified security screens unless the complete installation and hardware carry the relevant documented certification.
Do Aluminium shutters provide complete blackout?
No. Closed louvres provide strong shade and privacy, but light can remain around blades, frames and panel joins.
How should outdoor Aluminium shutters be cleaned?
Rinse exterior shutters with fresh water and use mild diluted detergent with a soft cloth or sponge. Coastal installations need more frequent rinsing to remove salt. Avoid abrasives, solvents, chlorine cleaners and high-pressure jets.
Can I order using my own measurements?
Online orders are available within the Perth metropolitan area only. Customers outside Perth metro should email measurements, photos, location and requirements to info@luxworld.net.au so our team can review the project.
How long do Aluminium shutters take?
LUXWORLD’s typical plantation-shutter lead time is approximately 8–12 weeks, but timing varies with configuration, colour, production demand and installation complexity. The current timeframe is confirmed before production.
