This Wandsworth dining room has installed Pure Hardwood Shutters in front of their french doors. The removal of the front pushrods means these shutters can easily push back to reveal the doors clearly and easily. In addition by adding T-posts between the 2 outer panels and the 4 inner panels, the window has been given far greater stability and allowed this incredible wide window to have shutters safely the entire way across. The arched window at the top of the french doors has been left open, however California Shutters are able to provide arched shaped shutters if required. 

This Hove home has transformed their office from a bland room with this deep blue wall colour with bright contrasting white shutters.

The shutters in this image have been installed using an inside mount frame in the recesses in this flat in Epsom, Surrey. Many flats and modern build houses have recessed windows allowing for very simple shutter installation and not needing to protrude from the wall. The shutters have been designed with a midrail approximately two thirds up the window, this allows for the top group of slats to be moved independently from the lower section - allowing greater control of the light in the room.

This home in Norfolk knocked through a central wall to create a large kitchen/dining area. The dining area at the front of the house has used café style shutters. Café style shutters are often used on house fronts as they allow maximum light to enter the room, while keeping privacy from any passers by. These have been constructed with  smooth Hardwood. By concealing the pushrod the appearance is even more minimal, matching to the general theme of the room. Check out our Neutral paint colours exclusive to the California Collection.

Boxed bay windows are perfect for shutters. They typically have a small recess so can either be outside or inside mounted, in this case they are outside mounted. Their appearance is favoured by many homes in Sussex, typically being built with bay or boxed bay windows in old Victorian houses.

A nautical atmosphere has been created using light blues and whites - again, sought after by those on the South Coast of England.

This Victorian house in the suburbs of London has been completely redone using subtle shades and minimal rooms looking for a more modern appearance. The shutters here, bought from California Shutters, have had a custom colour. The yellow colour gives a very summery look to the room and helps to add a burst of colour to the otherwise grey themed lounge. Inserting a central midrail in combination with 89mm slats means the tall shutters have kept their traditional shutter look.

Arch window treatments can be difficult to choose and shutters may look difficult to measure for but realistically they are very simple if you follow our easy DIY video instructions.

This seafront property in Worthing, East Sussex, has used dark stained Grained Ash shutters to contrast the otherwise bright look of the room. By doing this the focal point of the lounge becomes the shutters and any extras put in, in this case the cushions and rug. The tall windows are perfect for these outside mounted full height shutters, giving a large striking appearance. Also by using a central midrail the shutters have kept that desirable traditional feel that so many people in Britain seek for their period houses - it certainly suits the white painted flooring in this room.

Fitting in with the wooden theme of this room, these dark stained shutters are perfectly suited. The installation is split into three separate frames so as to match the number of windows in this modern new build home. Additional to this the shutters' ability to bifold allows them to easily be folded back and not protrude into the room too much. Many people never fold back their shutters and simply tilt the slats, obviously when designing your shutter door installation this is something that must be thoroughly thought out.

Plantation shutters are great for children's bedrooms, giving the ability to fully control light and especially for those with early bedtimes!
