What are Café Style Shutters?
It is not always required that the window opening be from top to bottom. Some rooms need as much lighting as possible, thus requiring the bottom to be left uncovered. However, sometimes passers-by ignore the lower part of the window, and there becomes no need to cover it up. Café Style Shutters is the solution to such scenarios.
Café style are shutters that do not cover the entire height of the window. They are placed at the bottom half of a window and do not go the whole way up like the plantation shutters. Mostly in a three-sided frame, on either side of the shutters and the bottom of your window, these café style shutters are best fit for windows where you would like some additional privacy, without having to cover the entire window.
Because of its name, it’s quite misleading to suggest that café style plantation shutters soley are reserved for restaurants and cafes alone. Café Style Shutters bring a range of stylish privacy at eye level along with beautiful elegance to home windows and commercial buildings.
We use tilt rods to open and close slatted shutter panels.
Furthermore, our simple yet stylish, central tilt rods are slender wooden bars attached to the front of the slats.
If you desire a design with a more contemporary look, then go for hidden tilt rods. They are thin, metal mechanisms attached to the back of the shutter panels. Used to neatly connect all the slats in a panel together, so when you move one slat, the others move as well.
Cafe Style Shutters graciously complement traditional window designs, like the sash window, bay window shape, or the stained glass pattern that you opt to cover up. Café Style Shutters give you the bliss to enjoy the shade and sunshine.
