Types of Shutters
Gilroy Shutters work closely with you, helping you choose the right shutter type for your room.
Whether you plan to add the finishing touches to your regular square window, classic bay, conservatory, or a peculiar shape, we can give you total control over the natural light that enters your room with exquisitely crafted shutters made from top-quality materials.
With a 10-year warranty included as standard, as well as a free measure and consultation, we're highly regarded for Hertfordshire, Bedfordshire and Buckinghamshire shutters. You also have the option of free temporary blinds, helping you gain adequate control over lighting right from our initial consultation.
Full Height
Our full height plantation shutters in Hertfordshire deliver complete light control, clean lines and a minimal look. So it's easy to create a timeless statement that pairs perfectly with your chosen room design. Full height plantations shutters can block out daylight or effortlessly let light in, thanks to the simple panel configuration.
Bay Window
The classic bay window shape became popular in mid-Victorian Britain, and while this window design does not naturally lend itself to privacy, shutters can deliver the practicality, style and versatility you're looking for. Whether you're looking to inject energy into your home or create a soft ambience, our bay window plantation shutters can fit the unique angles and sizes of your bay windows, maximising space, privacy and available blight.
Café Style
The café style is widespread in kitchens or living rooms that face out to the street, especially for homes situated in busy areas. If you desire shutters that can allow plenty of sunlight to burst into your kitchen whilst shielding you from onlookers, our café style shutters will bring you the best of both worlds, yet they can also accentuate the period window features in classic Victorian properties.
Wardrobe Door
Whether you have built-in wardrobes in all of your bedrooms or a dedicated walk-in wardrobe, you can eradicate a chaotic, cluttery wardrobe with the right door shutters. The louvres can be opened to ventilate your clothes. You can also opt for fold-out doors or a sophisticated track system enabling you to slide your doors partly or wholly open — maintaining a clean, crisp and elegant aesthetic at all times.
Conservatory
Conservatories are designed to make use of available natural light, bringing you closer to the outdoors. Many traditional glass or polycarbonate conservatories struggle to maintain a comfortable environment, with fluctuating temperatures making the space is too hot in the summer and too cold during the winter. With plantation shutters, you're able to control the light and minimise glare from the sun whilst controlling excess heat in the summer. You can also keep your conservatory snug and cosy during the winter.
Special Shapes
In most cases, unusually shaped windows are an attractive, characterful feature in a home, but they're not always practical to work with. Fortunately, Gilroy Shutters has helped many homeowners enjoy complete control over lighting and privacy, no matter their window's shape. Whether you have a round, square, triangular or oval design, we can provide a premium made-to-measure shutter system that accentuates the unusual shape of your window.
Tier-on-Tier
Tier-on-tier plantation shutters have a similar look and feel to full height shutters, but with two separate panels, with each able to function independently. Loved for versatility and ultimate light control, our tier-on-tier interior shutters can block out light and unwanted attention from the top, bottom or both. This flexibility enables you to create the perfect setting in your room, whilst this design is suitable for a wide variety of windows, including bay and sash.
French Door
French doors remain a popular addition to many British homes, providing a pleasant transition to outdoor spaces or a practical way of dividing rooms. With sleek French door shutters, you can take full advantage of excellent light control whilst gaining some much-needed privacy from the outside world. From patio doors to conservatory doors, dividers and balcony doors, your shutter frame is fixed directly to the door, allowing you to adjust the louvres to control the light, boosting the overall look and feel of your room.
Bi-fold & Sliding
Our track shutters are ideal for wardrobe doors, room dividers and patio doors. We can elevate the functionality of your shutters with an intelligent by-pass or bi-fold system. Our sliding by-pass shutters effortlessly glide on smooth-running tracks, so they're extremely popular for wardrobes. Yet, the bi-fold system simply folds out of the way against an adjoining wall, giving you exceptional light control for larger windows or openings.
Waterproof
Our waterproof ABS shutters are ideal for humid, wet or steamy environments, such as bathrooms, ensuites, wetrooms and kitchens. Unlike more conventional materials, this strong ABS plastic material can come into direct contact with water without incurring any damage. With a wide variety of beautiful colours and custom colour options, our waterproof shutters are lightweight, sleek, and built to last, enhancing your room's overall look with timeless elegance.
