Full Height
Full height shutters are the most popular choice among homeowners for their sleek style and practical application. They are excellent for blocking out unwanted light because of their simple panel configuration and privacy provision. Full height means that the shutter panels run the entire height of the window or door.
For taller windows, to match an existing feature, or just to change the aesthetics, a mid-rail may be added to full height shutters, meaning that different sections of louvres can be operated independently, giving greater light control.
Café Style
Café style window shutters are half the height of full height shutters and are excellent for providing privacy to street level and street facing windows.
Sitting in the bottom half of the window, café style allows light in the top half of the window to provide a unique level of light and privacy in the room. This style is also ideal for 1st floor bedrooms that aren’t overlooked from above meaning that privacy is not as much of a concern.
Tier on Tier
Tier on Tier offers the same practicalities as Café Style, but with a second tier of shutters situated on the top half of the frame, hinged separately. Both the top and bottom shutter panels can fold away or be kept in situ giving even more control over both the light control and privacy.
Perhaps the most flexible style, Tier on Tier Wooden is arguably at its most effective when the hinged panels of the shutters are narrow. Having narrow panels allows them to be concertinaed and Bi-folded back against the wall, meaning they will take up less space than Tier on Tier with larger panels.
Bay Window Shutters
Specially crafted to fit the space, shutters are a perfect solution for traditional British bay windows. Whether a square or splay bay, shutters mean that you don’t have the awkwardness of curtain rails, and the light control means that you can maximize the sun filtering through the aperture.
Plantation shutters blend into the bay window design, allowing you to keep the perfect lines of the bay, keeping the area clean and crisp whilst maintaining the special aesthetics that the architect had intended.
Special Shape
When architects design specific features in a building, they do not necessarily think about the practicalities meaning you may find yourself with limited choices with differently shaped openings such as portholes and gable ends.
At Direct Blinds Howden we can provide wide range of bespoke shutter solutions to fit just about any window or door, no matter the size, shape, or complexity. Whether your window is circular, arched or angled, is large or small, we can design special shape window shutters to fit perfectly.
