Café-Style Shutters
Beautiful privacy, with light left to shine through.
Café-style shutters cover the lower portion of your windows, providing privacy at eye level while leaving the upper section open to natural daylight. Inspired by the charm of continental cafés, they’re an elegant choice for homes where you want privacy without losing that lovely feeling of openness.


Why choose café-style shutters?
Café-style shutters are particularly popular for ground-floor rooms and windows overlooking the street.
- Privacy where it matters: Screen the lower part of your window from outside view.
- Natural light: Keep the upper window clear so daylight can fill the room.
- Effortless character: Add an elegant, relaxed look to both traditional and contemporary interiors.
- Ideal for street-facing windows: A lovely solution for living rooms, dining rooms and kitchens.
- Made to measure: Choose from a range of materials and finishes to complement your home.
A lovely choice for your home
Café-style shutters work especially well on sash windows, bay windows and ground-floor rooms where you’d like a little extra privacy. Because the upper part of the window remains uncovered, they’re a wonderful option for keeping rooms bright and welcoming.
We’ll help you decide the ideal height and configuration to suit your windows, so the finished shutters look beautifully proportioned.
