What are tier on tier shutters?

This flexible design is perfect for those looking for privacy during the day, as the top section can be left open to allow plenty of light into the room.

The benefits of tier-on-tier shutters
There are many advantages of tier-on-tier window shutters, however, it is the versatility of the design which continues to make these one of the most popular designs. For those which are looking for complete privacy and optimum lighting, our tier-on-tier interior shutters are the perfect choice.
The stable door effect that is created from the top and bottom panels is very popular with period properties, such as Victorian sash window shutters and the common Edwardian bay window shutters. These older properties often looked directly into the street, especially the terraced style, and our tier-on-tier wooden shutters provides privacy from passers-by.
Whether you install tier on tier shutters in a living room or bedroom, you will benefit from a stylish design that is also practical. With completely separate sections it is possible to open or close each panel, to provide increased privacy or light. Then if you are looking for full coverage, improved heat retention and noise reduction, simply close both panels.
We know that there are many window styles, and our experienced team are able to build tier on tier panels which perfectly match the lines and sections of your window. For example, if you have sash windows which are split in the middle, we can design panels which sit along the same lines to create a natural, seamless finish.
A range of tier-on-tier shutter designs
Our made to measure tier on tier shutters are completely bespoke to our customers homes, and we are committed to designing shutters which match your exact requirements. Typically, our shutters are designed with narrower panels, however in recent years a growing number of customers are choosing larger panels with wider louvres. Whether you opt for wide single hung panels with thick louvres, tier on tier solid shutters, or the more traditional narrow hinged design, the effect will be stunning.
When it comes to tier-on-tier shutters, hardwood is the most suitable timber as it provides excellent strength and rigidity. If you are installing bi-folding panels within your shutters, it is important to ensure the hinges are able to fix and bite into a strong material, so we recommend basswood or white ash, which are both ideal options for staining or painting. In comparison to cheaper MDF styles or faux wood finishes, the strength of hardwood will ensure that once screws are in place they will not loosen.
If you are looking for a light stain, a dark stain or a paint finish which matches your interior, we have an almost endless array of options available. Wolds Shutters can help you to pick out the ideal fittings for your shutters based on the window style, material used and your chosen finish. For example, traditional centre tilt rods are an excellent option for older properties. Whereas, if you are looking to create a simple, minimalist finish, we recommend the hidden tilt rod or easy tilt system which both create clean and uninterrupted panels.
