Price of shutter installation in Belgium

The size of the shutters directly influences the final budget. The larger and taller the structure, the more materials, installation time, and labor are required.

Custom openings or large dimensions often require the use of reinforced mounting supports, or even a scaffold, which leads to an increase in the total cost.

The installation price will primarily depend on the type of shutter and the complexity of the project. In Belgium, the hourly rate of a qualified installer is between €50 and €70 per hour including VAT, depending on the region. For a standard project, you should budget between €200 and €400 per window for labor alone.

The addition of complementary features also affects the final cost. A motorized shutter (remotely controllable) represents an average additional cost of €300 to €800, while adding an integrated security system or multi-point locks can increase the bill by about 10 to 15%.

Similarly, custom finishes — specific lacquering, custom colors, matching handles, or anti-corrosion treatment — increase the overall price but significantly enhance the durability and aesthetics of the project.

The installation site plays a significant role in calculating the price. In urban areas, logistical costs are often lower, while construction sites in rural or hard-to-reach areas incur higher transportation costs.
Additionally, some Belgian municipalities require a prior authorization to alter the appearance of facades, which can lead to additional administrative fees and extend the execution time.
