Newbury Shutters - Styles for Plantation Shutters
Full Height Shutters
Full height shutter are a popular window treatment option that covers the entire height of the window. This style of shutter offers excellent light control as they can be adjusted to allow as much or as little light as desired. This makes full height shutters ideal for bedrooms or living rooms where you want to reduce light for privacy, particularly useful if your windows are facing a busy street.
The louves can be operated above and below a divider rail or split in louve controls to allow you to alter the light and privacy. This way you can have privacy in the lower half and let light in the top section if you wish, or you can have the full height open or closed.
Café Style Shutters
Cafe height shutter panels are panels which do not come to the top of the window or door opening. These are an ideal compromise in situations where there is not a lot of ambient light entering the window, so it is necessary to keep the opening as obstruction free as possible, but privacy is required. This configuration is very popular in ground floor windows which directly face a road.
Tier-on-Tier Shutters
Tier on tier is where top and bottom panels are separate in the same frame, therefore allowing the panels to operate independently of each other. What this means in practice is that it is possible for example to have the bottom panels completely closed for privacy while the top panels are folded back to allow in the maximum light.
Solid Panel Shutters
Solid panels may be used to give that Mediterranean look to a window or add a touch of style to a door. It is also possible to have a combination of solid and louvred panels in order to match a shutter door to an existing half glazed door.
Louvre Sizes
Different Louvre sizes 46mm, 63mm, 76mm and 89mm are available to suit different styles to match your home.
