Shutters design tips – splits
Split shutters are correctly termed tier on tier shutters or double hung shutters. Basically they are two tiers of shutter panels, hung in line, one above the other. One of the main features of split shutters is that you can leave the bottom level of shutters closed whilst the top level is open, this can allow our customers to let in a lot of light into their rooms, and also means that when they are closed, the slats on the top tier can also open independently of the bottom tier slats.
