Shutter Styles
There are several different shutter styles to choose from, each offering a slightly different approach to light, privacy and how the window can be opened. From full height and tier-on-tier to café style and solid panels, each configuration has its own characteristics and practical considerations.
Below, you can get an overview of the main options and follow the individual guides for more information on how each one works, where it can be used, and the options available.
Full height shutters
Covering the entire window from top to bottom, full height shutters offer a clean and versatile solution for controlling light and privacy. They work across a wide range of window sizes and room styles, with options for different louvre sizes, materials and finishes.
Tier-on-tier shutters
Tier-on-tier shutters are made up of two independently opening sections, giving you greater flexibility over light, privacy and ventilation. Keep the lower section closed while opening the top, or adjust each section separately to suit the conditions throughout the day.
Café style shutters
Café style shutters cover part of the window, usually the lower section, while leaving the upper area uncovered. They provide privacy where you need it while allowing plenty of natural light into the room, making them particularly useful for street-facing windows.
Solid shutters
Solid panel shutters use solid sections instead of adjustable louvres, providing strong privacy and reduced light when closed. Their traditional panelled appearance can work particularly well in period interiors, while solid and louvred sections can also be combined for greater flexibility.
