Café style shutters give you the best of both worlds. Most commonly seen in a louvred style – where slats can be positioned to let in or block out light – café shutters only cover a portion of their respective window fittings.
Ideal for providing privacy in street-level living spaces without compromising on natural lighting, or for those that simply don’t want to get rid of their curtains, café shutters are a stylish and practical option.
Much like the classic, street-side café aesthetic, café style shutters are great for privacy if you live in a home with regular passers-by who can see into your living space.
Some homeowners feel that full height shutters can change the look of a room fairly drastically, only giving you the option of having your entire window covered. Café style shutters, however, provide more flexibility with lighting and temperature control – their half and half style means you can choose how much of your window area you want covered and, in turn, the amount of light coming into your home.
Our bespoke measurement service means you can choose exactly how much space your café shutters cover – ideal if you have varying preferences for different rooms.
While most café style designs cover the lower section of the window, it would be wrong to think that you have to opt for coverage on just the lower half.
If you have sash style windows, then the panels tend to fit well on one half, but our experts will be able to talk through your options in more detail during your consultation.
The beauty of our custom-made shutters is that you can select exactly where you want the panels to stop. Our team of Shutter Specialists are highly experienced in shutter design and can talk you through which shutter style is best suited to your window, the interior design and, most importantly, fit with ideas of how you want to use your window and shutters.
