Tier-on-Tier Shutters – Flexible Light & Privacy Control
At The Contemporary Shutter Co, we design and install tier-on-tier shutters for homes across Kent. This highly versatile style is ideal for anyone who wants maximum flexibility when it comes to light and privacy.
Tier-on-tier shutters look similar to full height shutters but with one key difference – the top and bottom panels open independently. This dual-panel design means you can keep the bottom closed for privacy while opening the top section to enjoy daylight, or adjust both to suit your mood and needs.
Perfect for sash windows, bay windows, and street-facing rooms, tier-on-tier shutters are a stylish and practical solution for homeowners looking for complete control.
Why Choose Tier-on-Tier Shutters?
Ultimate Flexibility
Unlike full height or café style shutters, tier-on-tier shutters give you the best of both worlds. Keep the lower section closed for privacy during the day while opening the upper tier to let sunlight in – or close everything for complete seclusion at night.
Timeless Design
With their elegant split-panel construction, these shutters add instant charm to any property. They are particularly popular in period homes around Canterbury, Tunbridge Wells, and Maidstone, but they also look stunning in modern houses and apartments.
Made for Kent Living
Whether your home is on a bustling high street in Sevenoaks or a quiet village in the Kent countryside, tier-on-tier shutters are perfectly suited to the varied lifestyles and window styles found across the county.
The Benefits of Tier-on-Tier Shutters
Tier-on-tier shutters aren’t just beautiful – they deliver practical benefits that make everyday life easier:
- Light & Privacy on Your Terms – Adjust the top and bottom panels independently.
- Great for Street-Facing Windows – Keep your home private without blocking natural light.
