Full height shutters cover the whole window in one clean run of louvres — the most popular and most versatile shutter style for living rooms, bedrooms and hallways. Design yours online, watch the price update live, and have it delivered free.
Full height shutters cover the whole window in one continuous run of panels, top to bottom. It’s the original plantation-shutter look — clean, symmetrical and endlessly adaptable.
Because the louvres run the full height of the window, you get complete control of light and privacy in a single sweep: tilt them closed for a blackout-style bedroom, angle them for soft daytime light, or fold the panels right back to open the window. On taller windows we add a mid-rail — a horizontal divider that braces the panels and lets you tilt the top and bottom louvres separately, without splitting into two sets of doors.
Full height is the safe, versatile all-rounder — if you’re not sure which style to pick, this is almost always the right answer.
The clean, full-window look suits almost any room, and closing the louvres fully makes bedrooms wonderfully dark. A mid-rail lets you keep the lower louvres shut for privacy while the top ones let light in.
Georgian sashes, feature windows and full-length glazing all suit an unbroken run of panels. The mid-rail adds strength on anything above roughly 1.4 m tall, so even large windows stay rigid and easy to operate.
With no horizontal split across the middle, full height shutters read as one calm, architectural feature — ideal for modern interiors and anywhere you want the window itself to be the statement.
All three are made the same way, from the same materials, at the same per-m² price. The difference is how they split the window.
Choose full height for the most versatile all-rounder and the cleanest look — one panel, total light control, a mid-rail for tall windows.
Consider tier-on-tier if you specifically want to open the top and bottom independently — great for street-facing and bay windows. It costs the same as full height here, so it’s purely about function.
Consider café style if you only need privacy on the lower window and want to keep the top open and bright — it’s the most affordable option because it covers less glass.
Every style is priced the same way: your window’s area in square metres × the material rate (PVC shown, from £127/m²). These are the exact prices our designer would quote today.
| Window (PVC) | Full Height This page |
Tier-on-Tier | Café Style |
|---|---|---|---|
| Average window 900 × 1,300 mm |
£149 | £149 | £127 |
| Large window 1,400 × 1,800 mm |
£320 | £320 | £160 |
Full height and tier-on-tier cover the whole window, so they cost the same — there’s no surcharge for the tier split. Café style covers the lower window only, so it’s billed on about half the area (small windows meet our 1 m² minimum). Prices include free mainland-UK delivery; hardwoods are £145–£164/m².
