The benefits of choosing shutters for your bedroom:
- Light control to keep your room dark when you prefer
- Excellent privacy
- Heat insulation to keep the room warm and cosy
- Noise reduction for a quiet night's sleep
- Ability to measure and install DIY shutters yourself
Control the light that enters your bedroom
A simple tilt of a slat can make a difference to how much light enters your room. Open the slats to let the morning light trickle in or open your shutter panels for your bedroom to be bathed in light.
Full height shutters and
Tier on tier shutters provide complete window coverage and therefore complete light control. Unlike your curtain or blind counterparts, the slats in bedroom shutters allow total control over your light levels.
You may want to consider you choice of slat size when considering the amount of light that enters your room. Smaller slats mean more slats and therefore more areas for light to bleed in.
Blackout Plantation Shutters v light reduction
Do not believe any company that offers blackout shutters, they simply don’t exist! We can assure you that our shutters offer fantastic light reduction, but a complete blackout effect can’t be achieved.
Our
Café style shutters are a half-height design that can be matched with curtains or blinds if you want to create a layered look. If you’re interested in blackout blinds specifically, café style shutters can be designed to accommodate these blinds behind them, so you can achieve the blackout effect you need with the style you want. This is incredibly important for those who want a dark room at night to get a good night's sleep.

Privacy for your bedroom
A crucial need for window dressings in bedrooms is privacy. Our full height and tier on tier styles provide full coverage and therefore complete privacy - job done!
Our café style shutters are a half-height design, so also provide privacy whilst letting light in from the top section at the same time.

Keep your rooms warm
Like darkness, another environmental factor that our bodies need for sleep is warmth. The solid hardwoods our shutters are crafted from add a welcome layer of insulation to your bedroom. Thicker than fabrics, they keep the warmth in and the cold out. Shutters can also protect your bedroom from unwanted draughts, a crucial factor if your bed is situated near your windows.
Reduce noise in your bedroom
Whilst your bedroom shutters insulate to keep the warmth in, they also provide a layer of soundproofing. We live in a loud and hectic world and we need our bedrooms to become a haven away from the noise and hustle and bustle. Shutters are made to measure your window frames and create another much-needed soundproof layer to your home.
