Solid Shutters in Oxfordshire Posted on 28 Apr 09:20 , 0 comments

Our clients came to us looking for a more traditional look for their window dressings in keeping with their countryside Oxfordshire home. They decided upon our Solid Raised Panel Shutter Range, favouring the simplicity they provide, in full height, with no slats, providing them with maximum light (and views!) when fully opened, and providing significant blackout & cosy insulation when closed. They were looking to cover both windows and doors within their home.

In properties that are not overlooked or street facing and perhaps in a more rural setting, the requirement of privacy during the day which is provided with louvered shutters is not as essential, solid panel shutters can be a good consideration. In this home there were beautiful far reaching views and therefore the clients wanted the shutters to be fully folded back during the daytime. Our clients selected to have the wooden shutters with a painted finish from one of the 28 custom colours available in this range (a stain finish is also available).

Solid Panel Shutters are often selected for period properties, perhaps in replacement of original shutters that may have been in place, or they are sometimes selected by clients wanting to add a traditional element to a more modern home. They have a classic timeless look, are bespoke to your windows and are manufactured using the finest hardwood, they are a premium level product which will stand the test of time.

The Shutter Shop has spent more than 35 years helping homeowners find made-to-measure window treatments that work with the character and practical needs of their homes.

This article remains at its original URL as part of our complete journal archive. Its subject connects to the same specialist guidance our surveyors provide today: considering the window proportions, room, privacy requirements, light and the right product material before confirming a design.

A considered approach

Shutters are made to order, so good decisions begin with careful measuring and a clear understanding of how the room is used. Full height, café style and tier-on-tier panels each manage light and privacy differently, while bay windows, special shapes and wide openings need their own design response.

Our team can show you the current range of materials, colours, louvre sizes and hardware during a free home survey.

For confident DIY customers, selected shutter styles can also be measured and configured online. More complex bay, shaped and tracked installations are best discussed with our professional measure-and-fit team.
