Café style shutters, also known as half shutters, have their origins in European cafés, hence the name. They only cover the lower half of the window, providing privacy below while daylight can flood in above. This provides privacy for rooms facing the street while sacrificing less natural light than full shutters.

This makes them ideal for any ground-level room that sees a lot of use during the day, such as a living room or kitchen. As well as letting in light above, the café shutters can be adjusted to let in more light below. Each panel features louvres that can be tilted by hand to control light and privacy levels.

We custom-make all our café style shutters here in the UK, precisely designed and fitted to your windows and your style. Choose your material and colour to match your decor and we’ll do the rest.

Key Features

Enhanced Privacy with Stylish Half-Height Design

Keep your room bright and airy without sacrificing privacy with café style shutters. The half shutter design means you can still enjoy good levels of natural light while the lower half of the window is covered. This not only looks stylish but gives you more light than full window shutters.

Durable and Easy to Maintain

We construct our café shutters using only the highest quality materials, so they stay looking fantastic and working day after day. Our moisture-resistant materials and finishes help prevent warping and water damage. They’re also easy to clean and easily accessible for everyday dusting and cleaning.

Adjustable Light Control

As well as allowing in daylight above, the panels of café style shutters allow even more light control with their adjustable louvres. Tilt up or down by hand as needed to increase light levels or completely block out the lower half of your windows.

Classic Whites and Neutrals

Create a clean and classic look with white café shutters, a great choice to keep things feeling light and bright. Neutral shades can look fantastic with a wide range of decors, from traditional interiors to contemporary spaces.

Natural Wood Finishes

Go for natural wood café shutters for that timeless feel in any room. A natural wood finish lends itself to almost any décor, bringing warm tones while still feeling light and elegant. Pair with curtains to create a layered, textured look, or keep it simple and unadorned.

Bold Colours for a Statement Look

Add a splash of colour to your windows and really make a statement. Deeper colours and shades of café shutters can add so much style to a room. Use a bold hue against more neutral walls and furnishings or as a complementing shade within a colourful ensemble.
