Cafe Style Shutters FAQs

Find out everything you need to know about Café Style Shutters by browsing some of our Frequently asked Questions.

why choose cafe style plantation shutters?

Cafe style plantation shutters are ideal for ground floor windows, as well as first floor windows which don’t require full height privacy. Café style shutters provide privacy by covering just the lower half of the window, keeping the top half of the window clear for maximum light. Half Height shutters also work very well alongside other window dressings like curtains and blinds, café style shutters can help you achieve the best of both worlds. Alternatively, you can look at our tier on tier shutter range, if you want to be able to close the upper part of the window too

maximise light and control privacy

Covering just the lower portion of your windows can maximise the light while still controlling privacy. Half height shutters are available in all our materials including our 100% waterproof Java Range which is great for bathrooms or moisture prone rooms. An additional benefit is cost; by only ordering shutters for the lower window panes it is our most cost effective shutter style.

New shutters look great!

Great process from measuring, to ordering and delivery & fitting. This is the second time I have used The Shutter Shop – had them in my old house as well and I would highly recommend. Such a clean & modern look and not baggy curtain fabric taking up space. Jennifer B All on time, as promised, for the price quoted.

From the original visit to prepare a quote to the installation, this was a v good service at a competitive price. The team were knowledgeable; sales & service personnel were friendly & helpful; & did an outstanding job on the day. Sean A Refreshingly professional.

Great product, friendly, attentive & great communications. Supply only, but from start to finish everyone that I dealt with in the business was courteous, friendly & professional. Highly recommend. Robin H Love my new shutters!

They came to measure and provided the initial quote very quickly. They provided different options and explained each one thoroughly. Installation was a few weeks earlier than anticipated. Samantha B All round 10 / 10.

Straight forward and tricky shutters beautifully made and installed by courteous fitters. Have used them before & will use them again. Barbara P Will use Shuttershop again.

The only part of our rebuild that was perfect! Measured (accurately) quoted (rapidly & competitively) and installed (without any problems; all packaging removed). Look beautiful, high quality & stress free. Caroline F
