One of the most frequently asked questions when it comes to window shutters is whether they provide complete blackout in the room they’re installed. The answer to this question however, can vary greatly depending on not only the shutters installed but it’s worth noting that as a rule of thumb, shutters are designed specifically to block out a significant amount of light. So what does this mean for you?
Window shutters come in varying forms. From Cafe Style shutters to Tier-on-Tier and even solid window shutters; there really is something for everyone. If you’re looking for the most effective however, in terms of black out, solid window shutters may be the best option. The only issue you may find with solid window shutters is that they do not provide the flexibility that you would ultimately get with a window shutter that boasts louvres. Full height shutters or Tier-on-Tier however, allow you to open and close the shutters as and when you need. This gives you the ability to block out the light when you need to and allow light in at your convenience too.
the use of blackout blinds behind plantation shutters is another great way to limit the light in your room. This helps minimise light and still offers those who love a Venetian style blind to enjoy that look in their room.
by combining curtains and shutters you can really block out a significant amount of light. This works by allowing the curtains to block any further light coming in from the edges of the window shutters themselves. For the best results, use heavier, blackout curtains on top of the shutters.
