Shutterly Fabulous Full Height Solid Shutters Offer Classic Style.

Solid London Window Shutters!

Our North London customer has a property in fashionable Notting Hill, which is quite notorious for having a mix of architectural styles. The property in question is very typical of that area large sash windows, tall ceilings. Most of these properties were originally fitted with shutters when they were built.

Solid shutters are a vital if often overlooked feature of many historic houses. In the medieval period, when most windows were unglazed, shutters kept out wind, rain, and insects. In later periods, when houses had cosier rooms with fireplaces and glazed windows, shutters provided extra draught-proofing and privacy.

The design most commonly associated with Georgian houses, in which internal solid shutters fold back into architraves to form the window reveals are much like the choice of our Notting Hill customer. They are located on a busy street and noise can be a real issue particularly at night.

By fitting solid shutter panels at your window, an additional barrier between you and the sound outside can help a fair bit to muffle any noise from outside.

With solid panels obviously blocking out light during the day, customers usually prefer to have their shutters pulled open into the room, either folding back against the window reveal, or flat against the wall. Depending on how you want your solid shutters to look the Shutterly Fabulous Sales Consultant can advise you according to the type of windows you have as to what would look best. Full Height Solid Shutters fitted in this Georgian property in North London certainly looked in keeping with the style of the house and gave the customer privacy as well as the sound protection they needed.
