Shutter Styles

Shutters are designed to suit your use requirements and the openings themselves. We don’t expect you to be an expert shutter designer, so we can guide you through what will work for you and look great. Tier on tier is ideal on taller sash windows, giving the option of opening the top section for full daylight and keeping the bottom closed for street-level privacy. However, they do not really work on windows less than about 120CM high.

Full-height shutters look very elegant, especially with mid-rails if on sash windows, so if the benefits of the tier on tier do not entice you enough, full-height can look better. Café style shutters suit those who would like to keep the soft fabric look of their curtains but, be warned, more than half of our café style shutter customers upgrade to tier on tier. This is an expensive way to do it…

Tracking is sometimes the only way to cover wide openings, we have managed shutters across openings as wide as 12 metres. Tracked shutters make very cost-effective room partitions. Broadview Blinds designs, manufactures and installs window shutters in Bournemouth and Poole in Dorset and across Hampshire and Wiltshire.
