Full Height Shutters – Timeless Elegance for Every Home
At The Contemporary Shutter Co, we specialise in providing premium quality plantation shutters across Kent, and our Full Height Shutters are by far the most popular choice for homeowners. Combining style, practicality, and long-lasting durability, these shutters are the perfect window dressing for almost any property – from modern apartments to period homes.
Full height shutters cover the entire window from top to bottom, offering a clean, sleek look while maximising light control and privacy. Whether you’re looking to transform your living room, bedroom, or bay windows, our bespoke shutters are made-to-measure and professionally installed for a flawless finish.
Why Choose Full Height Shutters?
Full height shutters create a striking visual impact, enhancing both the interior and exterior of your property. With their symmetrical panels and elegant lines, they offer a timeless aesthetic that complements both traditional and contemporary interiors.
Superior Light Control
One of the main reasons Kent homeowners choose full height shutters over blinds or curtains is their ability to control natural light. Tilt the louvres to let daylight flood in, or close them fully for complete privacy and darkness – ideal for bedrooms, nurseries, or media rooms.
Added Privacy Without Compromise
Unlike net curtains or standard blinds, shutters provide privacy without blocking out the light entirely. This makes them perfect for homes in busy towns such as Maidstone, Canterbury, Tunbridge Wells, and Sevenoaks, where street-facing windows benefit from adjustable screening.
The Benefits of Full Height Shutters
When choosing shutters for your Kent home, you want a solution that does more than look good. Full height shutters bring a range of practical benefits:
- Insulation & Energy Efficiency – Shutters help reduce heat loss in winter and keep rooms cooler in summer. This can lower your energy bills over time.
- Noise Reduction – Living on a busy street? Our hardwood shutters add an extra layer of sound insulation.
- Durability – Made from premium quality materials, our shutters are built to last far longer than standard blinds or curtains.
- Easy Maintenance – Simply wipe clean with a soft cloth – no need for expensive cleaning or replacing fabric.
- Increased Property Value – Installing plantation shutters is considered a home improvement that adds kerb appeal and boosts resale value.
Tailor-Made for Your Windows
Every home in Kent is unique, which is why all our full height shutters are bespoke and made-to-measure. From large patio doors to bay windows and sash windows, our expert team designs shutters that perfectly fit your space.
