Over 30+ Years of Experience
When people think of upgrading their windows with plantation shutters, they usually focus on style, colour, or louvre size. But there’s one small detail that makes a huge difference to your shutters’ performance over time—and it’s often overlooked.
We’re talking about non-rusted hinges.
If you’re installing your own DIY shutters (especially in humid or coastal areas), choosing hinges that won’t rust is one of the smartest DIY upgrades you can make.
Why Non-Rusted Hinges Matter
Let’s be honest—hinges aren’t the most exciting part of your shutters. But they’re one of the most important.
Here’s why non-rusted hinges are a game-changer:
1. They Last Longer
Rust corrodes and weakens standard hinges over time. That leads to creaking, stiffness, and eventually failure. Non-rusted hinges stay strong and smooth year after year.
2. Perfect for Aussie Conditions
If you’re living near the coast, in tropical Queensland, or anywhere with high humidity (hello, summer storms!), your hardware needs to handle the elements. Our non-rusted hinges are built for exactly that.
3. No Stains, No Fuss
Rust doesn’t just affect function—it’s ugly. Rust marks can stain your white shutters and walls. Our hinges are rust-resistant and colour-matched, so they stay clean and sleek.
4. Zero Maintenance
Forget WD-40 and constant wiping. Our hinges are made for low-maintenance living—just like your DIY installation should be.
🏡 What Makes Our Hinges Non-Rusted?
At DIY EasyFit Shutters, we use durable stainless steel hinges that are:
- Corrosion-resistant
- Finished to match your shutter colour

💡 Small Detail, Big Impact
You might not notice your hinges every day—but you will notice if they rust. That’s why we’ve made rust-resistance a standard feature in our shutter kits.
