Plantation Shutters in Northfield
Shutters are made to fit the window opening exactly, with adjustable louvres set in a solid frame. They bring a sense of calm order to a room and a settled, finished look from the street.
Fitting plantation shutters in Northfield homes
Northfield and Kings Norton have many bay windows, and shutters suit them particularly well. Each face of a bay is measured individually, as older bays are rarely identical. Full height panels cover the whole window, tier on tier lets the top open separately, and café style dresses only the lower half for privacy on a street-facing room.
Shutters are always priced after the free measure; there is no bundle. BN-14 takes 14% off online bookings without another offer. The fitter will discuss frames, louvre sizes and colours, and a written quote follows for you to consider.
Shutters are made to your measurements, so they take longer to arrive than blinds. On the fitting day, hinges and catches are adjusted so panels close neatly and louvres tilt evenly. A soft duster or damp cloth keeps them clean, and there are no cords.
They are not a full blackout. In bedrooms, a blackout roller behind gives darkness at night.
Shutters respond beautifully to the seasons: louvres tilted up in summer to soften strong light, closed on winter evenings for a snug, settled room. Painted finishes in soft whites and stone tones suit many B31 homes.
