Living Room Shutters

Full-height is the default. It gives the cleanest architectural line and suits the way most people use a living room (open through the day, closed in the evening). On tall ground-floor sashes, tier-on-tier is often the better call because it lets you open the lower half for view while keeping the top closed for street privacy.

Usually not. Living rooms are normally about adjustable daylight and evening privacy rather than true blackout. If you watch a lot of daytime film or have a TV facing a window, shutters often give enough control on their own, and we can discuss a blackout blind only if the room needs it.

Both have a premium painted finish. Polycomposite is the more practical premium product because it is waterproof, reinforced, and gives better thermal and noise insulation. Hardwood is still a good choice if real timber character is the thing you care about most. Express pricing differs by material; Plan & Save is the same rate for both.

Each section of the bay gets its own panel, with the frame joints planned around the actual measured angle of the reveal. Bay geometry is survey-led: we check each face, reveal depth, handle clearance, and panel swing before confirming the layout.

Yes, many living rooms use shutters alongside curtains. The shutter handles daytime privacy and light control; the curtain adds softness and seasonal warmth. We mount the shutter inside the reveal so the curtain pole sits in its usual position above.
