Although we do many plantation shutters<\/strong><\/a> for different types of windows and doors, one of the main shutters you\u2019re about to read is plantation shutters for bay windows<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

We have all experienced that problem where there are people walking past your house while looking in at you. It feels like an invasion of privacy as you don\u2019t know who they are and you don\u2019t want them peering in your home, but it was one of those unavoidable things, especially if the nets or curtains were in the washing machine, after being up for months and collecting dust.<\/p>\n

If this description sounds like you, then plantation shutters are the answer to your problems. Here\u2019s how:[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n

Privacy<\/h2>\n

You can relax in peace at home, knowing that by having installed window shutters, no one can look in and see you.<\/p>\n

Security<\/h2>\n

Plantation shutters provide the added bonus of another piece of security to your home. Our window shutters have locks on, making it harder for people to break in.<\/p>\n

Investment<\/h2>\n

Many people are viewing the installation of a plantation window shutter to be an investment opportunity. Shutters can be seen as an unusual feature to a home that not only looks good but are extremely useful. If you are looking to move, then by having plantation shutters in your home means the price of your property will rise as they are a permanent fixture.<\/p>\n

Sound Insulation<\/h2>\n

Noise from the street can be incredibly annoying, which is why it is a relief to find out that with the windows and doors being closed, the window shutters assist in being a sound insulation to help block out the noise coming through the bay windows.<\/p>\n

Thermal Insulation<\/h2>\n

During the winter seasons, it can be so annoying feeling that chilly draft breeze in through the windows and it can also be costly having to turn the heating up, which is why plantation window shutters are a helpful tool at being thermal insulation. From the wood that these shutters are made from, they help to keep the warm air inside the house meaning that those costly heating bills at winter will go down.<\/p>\n

Ventilation<\/h2>\n

If you have kids or pets, then you will have experienced the problem of wanting to open all of the windows in the house during summer, but not being able to for fear the children or the furry little pests will climb out of the window without your knowledge.<\/p>\n

With shutters, you are able to keep windows and doors open, while keeping the shutters closed and locked. The house can get properly ventilated without any of the stress of having to constantly keep an eye on children or animals.<\/p>\n

Flexible Light Control<\/h2>\n

With flexible light control you will no longer have the problem of the sun beaming through the window directly onto you. You are able to adjust the shutters with the tilt rods just enough so the sun doesn\u2019t hit you, the lounge is still lit up with sun light and you can still look out.<\/p>\n

Low Maintenance<\/h2>\n

Plantation shutters are also extremely low maintenance. You no longer have to flap around waiting for it to be a sunny day to take the curtains down to wash and stick out on the washing line to dry. With plantation shutters, all you need to do is go over them with a duster, or give them a clean over with a wet cloth and they will look as good as new.<\/p>\n

With our bay window shutters, we can design them to exactly how you want. Our shutters are made to measure and you can choose from a variety of different colours, or even do a colour match if you want to colour co-ordinate the shutters with the rest of your home.<\/p>\n

We also have a variety of different designs for you to choose from: Cafe Style Shutters, Three Panel Shutters, Curb Appeal, Boxed Window Shutters, Full Height Shutters and Solid Shutters.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_cta h2=”Plantation Shutters for Bay Windows” h4=”A Smart Alternative to Blinds & Curtains” txt_align=”center” color=”mulled-wine” add_button=”bottom” btn_title=”FREE quote on 01245 917588″ btn_color=”danger” btn_align=”center” btn_link=”url:http%3A%2F%2Fessexwindowshutters.co.uk%2Fcontact||target:%20_blank|” btn_custom_onclick=”true” btn_smooth_scroll=”true”][\/vc_cta][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
