- COMMON QUESTIONS
Product FAQS
Q.
At what height should café style shutters be installed?
A.
The height is entirely bespoke to your window and your privacy needs. Most customers choose to align the top of the shutters with a natural break in the window, such as a transom rail or the meeting rail of a sash window. During our free survey, we’ll use professional samples to show you exactly how different heights will look, ensuring we find the perfect balance between blocking the view from the street and maximising the light coming in from above.
Q.
Will café style shutters make my room feel smaller
A.
Quite the opposite! Because the top half of the window remains completely unobstructed, café style shutters can actually make a room feel airier and more spacious than heavy curtains or full-height treatments. They provide the privacy you need at eye level while keeping your connection to the outside world and the sky above. They are a particularly popular choice for the smaller terraced homes common in Chesterfield and Derby.
Q.
Can I combine café style shutters with curtains?
A.
Yes, many of our clients choose to pair café style shutters with curtains or a Roman blind for a ‘best of both worlds’ approach. The shutters provide daytime privacy and a clean aesthetic, while the curtains can be closed in the evening for extra warmth and a softer, more traditional look. It’s a very versatile design choice that works well in both living rooms and bedrooms.
