Systems & specifications

Choose a system for the application—not a label for the whole house.

Spot On combines two Melbourne-made PVC systems with clearly identified special-project ranges, allowing material choices to follow the room, opening and project requirement.

Plantation shutter systems across residential indoor and outdoor applications

Melbourne-made core systems

Manufactured in our Springvale factory.

Both systems are custom-made with a typical 1–3-week lead time after confirmed specification. Aluminium-core PVC prioritises reinforcement and serviceability; hollow PVC prioritises straightforward installation and day-to-day care.

Direct answers

System and lead-time questions, answered.

Clear answers based on our current manufacturing, supply and project process.

Which shutter systems are made in Melbourne?

Spot On manufactures aluminium-core PVC and hollow PVC shutters in its approximately 2,000m² Springvale factory. Imported PVC, timber and aluminium ranges are specialist project systems sourced from outside our Melbourne factory and coordinated through the same Spot On project team.

What are the lead times for local and imported shutters?

Melbourne-made PVC systems typically take 1–3 weeks after the project specification is complete and confirmed. Specialist imported PVC, timber and aluminium systems typically take 10–12 weeks. The final schedule is confirmed for each order and can change with complexity, revisions or delivery arrangements.

Can different shutter systems be used in one project?

Yes. A mixed-material project can use different systems for bathrooms, living areas, outdoor openings or special shapes while coordinating visible details across the home. System selection should follow the room, opening, finish and exposure requirements rather than forcing one material into every application.

How do I choose the right plantation shutter material?

Start with the opening and environment. Aluminium-core PVC suits demanding indoor and moisture-prone applications, hollow PVC suits straightforward residential supply, imported PVC adds colour and shape options, timber provides natural finishes, and aluminium is intended for outdoor or exposed applications.
