Today we fitted this stunning home in Sidcup Kent with two five sided bays, a small three-sided bay and two square windows throughout the whole house.
Plantation shutters are the perfect dressing for any window, but we especially love the look of a large bay window, it is classic timeless look that compliments any interior design whilst adding character to the outside of your home.
The living room or lounge as it’s often referred to, is a room that we don’t just relax in ourselves, but we often host in. Whether it’s family or friends, it’s the perfect excuse to ensure your room looks as amazing as it possibly can. That’s where our living room shutters come in, giving your home living room style and the ultimate wow factor.
This was a unique recent installation of ours in Crayford Kent. It was a square bay, a set of patio doors and squares throughout the house. But the style of windows was not the standout point of this house it was the colour that the customer had decided to have throughout the house.
The customer was extremely happy with the outcome of their shutters and were happy with their choice of colour and we agreed that the colour really helped finish of the interior and exterior of the house.
The colour chosen was black with a smooth finish, with matching black hinges. This was a very sleek and modern finish to the home but due to the style of all wooden plantation shutters still was a classic feel to them that will stand the test of time.
This week our fitters had the pleasure of fitting this stunning house with our bespoke window shutters in Sidcup Kent.
The job was four three sided bays and several squares throughout the up and downstairs of the property, the customer opted for a central tilt rod in order to be in line with the Georgian bars on the outside of their windows. We feel this gives a very neat and classic finish to the windows inside and out.
The customer opted for a silk white colour for their shutters, this is a white with a touch of cream. This colour is a very warm homely finish to any home and will match with most interiors.
the three-sided bays were full height with a mid-rail to match the style of the windows and also to allow the customer privacy due to the whole window being covered.
Today we fitted these stunning three-sided bays with a side window in New Cross London.
Due to the size of the windows in this Victorian house the customer opted for a tier-on-tier configuration throughout the house, there are many different advantages to this configuration. They are a very flexible design of shutters as they can be set out in many ways with two different panels within the frame. Being able to open the top panels without the bottom panels will allow more privacy whilst still being able to have natural light into all rooms.
Bay window shutters are the perfect complement to Victorian, Georgian, and Edwardian homes’ classical characteristics. Window shutters are a popular choice window covering that never goes out of style and is versatile enough to suit bay windows, increasing privacy and light control.
Today our fitters installed these four stunning bays in Sidcup, Kent. The living room had both a three- and five-sided bay at the front of the house, the customers wanted shutters for privacy due to the street they are on is quite a busy one. However, they were sceptical over the amount of light that it would block out however as you can see from the before and after pictures the natural light still is prominent in the room.
There are many benefits to having shutters especially the amounts of energy saved and warmth control they provide. They keep the sun out in the summer which will enable the room to stay as cool as possible and in the winter allow for another layer of insulation at the window.
We felt that the large bay windows on the front of this house really allow for the shutters to be displayed in their best forum and are a timeless interior design for your home.
Our fitters had the pleasure this week of fitting this stunning house in Bexley with various styles of Shutters. This was a stunning house that was recently renovated, and we were just putting the finishing touches onto the interior of the house.
The three-sided bay in the lounge was a stunning window that was made with both a tilt rod and a silent mechanism on the panels in order to line up with the window’s Georgian bars that run through the middle. This is something that we do not normally do as it is not usually requested but the customers decided that was what they thought would suit the window the best and after installation we totally agree.
The large square window at the front of the property was too big to be fitted in one frame in order for the shutters to be suitable for the window we split the frame into numerous different sections to spread across the window and the finished product was stunning. This large window allows plenty of natural light into the room and the customers were intrigued as to whether the shutters were going to block out most of this light. However, they were pleasantly surprised at the amount of light that still entered the room, whilst still offering the needed privacy for a bedroom.
Today our fitters had the pleasure of fitting this stunning opening in a modern home in Broadstairs Kent with our Shutters.
The customer wanted a modern look to compliment the rest of the house and this stunning opening in their lounge area. They wanted privacy as they felt they were overlooked but did not want the elegance of the window to be taken away from and didn’t want the room intruded into.
We advised that due to the size of the window it would be better to go with a larger slat size as we feel that the bigger the window the bigger slat size as they look more in proportion to the window.
As the middle section is a set of French doors opening on to the garden and the shutters are likely to be opened regularly, we advised that the best product for the shutters to be made in is Bermuda range. This is due to them being a lighter product due to the ABS louvres in the panels.
Today our fitters had the pleasure of fitting this stunning new build modern house in Sidcup, most new builds have straight openings rather than bay windows and this house was the same.
The customers decided that they wanted an off-centre tilt rod with a 76mm slat size, this is not seen very often so we were excited to see how it suited the house and as you can see it did not disappoint.
The bi-folding doors at the back of the property was fitted with a track system, this is an extremely stylish way to cover larger areas of openings when installing shutters. They also fold into one another to stay unobtrusive into the room.
A tracked system is also an extremely versatile product and can be used in various ways. Not only can they be used for window shutters as seen in this case but can also be used as room dividers and wardrobe doors.
One of our fitting team was in Bexleyheath today fitting a stunning bungalow with two perfect five sided bays on the front of the house. The customer decided on an off centred tilt rod in order to not clash with the lead light windows which we thought worked perfectly.
The customer decided that the pure white colour would suit their home the most as they were not set on the paint in the bedroom and decided that a pure white shutter would match most colours and is a timeless additive to the home. They also decided on a 76mm slat size as they felt that this style of panel suited the size of their windows perfectly.
The difference between Diamond Shutters and a lot of other shutter companies is that we always use custom angled bay posts. On this particular bay the angle of the bay posts was set at 157 degrees this ensures a perfect fit that is bespoke to their bay rather than 5 individual frames fixed together. Bay windows are notorious for being out of square and level, so we ensure our fitting teams have trim in the same colour that you have chosen so that they are able to scribe trim in around and ensure there is no light bleed and that the job is left as neat as possible.
Our team was in Chislehurst today fitting a stunning 1930s semi detached house. This house was one that we were excited to get fitted because of the unusual window shapes throughout the house.
The special shaped circular window in one of the bedrooms is an unusual window that we rarely have the pleasure of fitting. Window shutters are a great solution to dress any special shaped window as we are able to design the shutters to suit your window whilst keeping the character of the opening.
The customers decided on pure white in colour and a 76mm slat size with a hidden tilt rod mechanism this is our most popular combination, and we think works really well in most houses.
The two bays upstairs were full height, this was decided by the customers as they wanted to keep as much privacy as possible in the bedrooms. However they decided that they preferred the look of café style shutters in the downstairs lounge which we thought was a great choice as it allows more natural light into the house.
One of our teams of fitters were In Sidcup Kent today to install our made to measure full height plantation shutters in a stunning recently renovated Victorian home.
The customer was interested in a design that would compliment the history of the property whilst still allowing for a contemporary style.
After an initial consultation with our surveyor, we advised on an 89mm slat size with a hidden tilt mechanism to maximise the amount of natural light that could flow through the house.
The customer opted for a pure white colour throughout the house to keep with design and allow for a clean modern look throughout.
We and the customer were delighted with the end result and are planning on adding more shutters to their home in the near future.
