Shutters
Made-to-measure shutters for every Basque-Landes home
La Porte Basque designs, manufactures and installs shutters perfectly suited to the Atlantic climate, whether for an apartment in the heart of Bayonne, a contemporary villa in Capbreton or a half-timbered house on the Basque coast.
We offer roller shutters—electric or solar—that provide enhanced thermal and acoustic insulation while making everyday life easier thanks to connected motorisation.
To preserve traditional charm, we also make hinged shutters in PVC, aluminium or wood, available in an extended colour range: Basque red, pine green, contemporary grey or any RAL shade.
If you are looking for a more design-led touch, our sliding aluminium shutters play with light effects thanks to their solid slats, louvred panels or laser-cut designs, while our folding louvred shutters and renovation roller shutters adapt to existing openings, even atypical ones.
From measuring to RGE-certified installation, our team supports you at every step, offering a local service, interest-free staged payments and responsive after-sales service throughout the Basque Country and the south of Les Landes.
Hinged shutters / ELECTRIC - SOLAR
Add an authentic touch to your façade with made-to-measure hinged shutters suited to the climate of the Basque Country and the south of Les Landes.
Available in PVC, powder-coated aluminium or certified exotic wood, they withstand sea spray while maintaining an impeccable finish.
High-performance thermal and acoustic insulation
Add an authentic touch to your façade while enjoying optimal comfort: our made-to-measure hinged shutters, available in PVC, powder-coated aluminium or certified exotic wood, withstand the sea spray of the Basque Country and the south of Les Landes. Their solid vertical slats limit heat loss in winter and keep interiors cool in summer, providing first-class thermal and acoustic insulation.
Secure equipment
To protect your home effectively, each leaf is reinforced with external metal bars and internal “Z” braces. Combined with solid slats, these reinforcements guarantee enhanced security when the shutters are closed.
Single- or double-leaf hinged shutters: a practical choice
Easy to install in new builds as well as renovations, our hinged shutters adapt to all openings, from small dormers to large picture windows; they are available with one or two leaves depending on the configuration. Wired, radio or solar motorisation, as well as an extended colour range—Basque red, pine green or anthracite grey—allow you to create a solution that is as practical as it is attractive.
Roller shutters / electric - solar
For optimal ease of operation, choose roller shutters fitted with a crank handle, wired motorisation or a Somfy radio motor compatible with smart-home systems.
The extruded aluminium curtain offers increased robustness against westerly winds and can be fitted with insulating slats that qualify for energy-efficiency grants.
Solar-sensor versions operate completely autonomously: no need to run cables or drill through the façade insulation.
Customise the colour (white RAL 9016, grey RAL 7016 or any RAL shade) and the slat design to match the joinery to your existing windows. When paired with a home automation system, these roller shutters can be programmed to open at sunrise or simulate occupancy while you are away.
Ideal for primary residences in Bayonne as well as seasonal rentals in Hossegor.
Louvred shutters
Louvred shutters, also known as jalousies, offer an elegant and cost-effective solution for controlling light and ventilation in Basque-Landes homes. In aluminium, PVC or wood, they withstand wind and salty air while retaining their appearance.
- Folding louvred shutters feature articulated leaves that stack in a “snail” formation, maximising the clear opening and remaining discreet once open.
- Sliding louvred shutters glide on top and bottom tracks and fold like an accordion; operation is smooth, even over large widths, and allows fine control of light.
Thanks to made-to-measure, you choose the material, colour and finish: solid louvred shutters for greater blackout, openwork louvred shutters for better airflow, or adjustable slats for precise control of brightness.
Sliding shutters / ELECTRIC - SOLAR
To enhance contemporary façades, opt for sliding shutters in aluminium, PVC or wood, mounted on a visible or recessed track.
Motorised or manual, they are also available in an autonomous solar version for installation without chasing.
Thanks to the wide choice of panels—solid slats, American-style openwork slats, decorative laser cutting, louvred infill—you can play with transparency, ventilation and aesthetics.
Their sliding system completely frees up the space in front of the window and allows the use of large-format panels, perfect for Capbreton’s panoramic bay windows or Biarritz’s corner windows.
All configurations are possible: one or two leaves, top/bottom guidance, soft-close stops, centralised locking and home automation integration for smartphone control.

Some answers...
How do you choose hinged shutters?
To choose the right hinged shutters, start by measuring your openings accurately, taking into account any elements that could hinder opening, such as gutters. Then select the material that best suits your needs: wood for its traditional charm, aluminium for its robustness and easy maintenance, or PVC for its excellent value for money.
Why choose hinged shutters?
Hinged shutters provide effective thermal and acoustic insulation, enhance the security of your home and add undeniable aesthetic appeal to your façade. Their ease of use and durability make them a wise choice for many households.
Which shutters are the most robust?
Solid wood hinged shutters, reinforced with bars and Z braces, are known for their strength. Aluminium models also offer excellent resistance to bad weather and attempted break-ins. For increased security, it is possible to add devices such as multipoint locks or motorisation systems.
