What are Tier-on-Tier Shutters?
Plantation shutters featuring two separate, independently operational panels (top and bottom). They provide ultimate flexibility, allowing you to control light, air, and privacy levels with precision.
Tier-on-Tier Shutters offer the perfect balance of light, air, and privacy control. This design features two distinct panels—a top tier and a bottom tier—that open and close independently. You can open the top section to flood your room with natural light while keeping the bottom closed for essential privacy. Ideal for ground floor properties, sash windows, or any room experiencing varying sunlight throughout the day. They provide the ultimate versatile solution, offering the benefits of both full height and café style shutters in one elegant system.
Why customers love our Tier-on-Tier Shutters
Tier-on-Tier Shutters from Abacus Blinds are specifically designed for maximum versatility, ensuring you have total control over your window environment at all times. They are a popular choice for homes across Maidstone…
-
Independent Operation
The key feature is the two separate panels. You can open, close, or adjust the louvres on the top tier completely independently of the bottom tier.
-
Ground Floor Privacy
Perfect for street-level or overlooked properties. Keep the bottom tier firmly closed for complete privacy while opening the top tier to enjoy natural light.
-
Complements Tall Windows
The design naturally suits the proportions of taller windows, including sash windows and large bay windows, enhancing their architectural features.
-
Dual Functionality
When the bottom tier is closed and the top is open, they mimic the look and function of café style shutters. When both are closed, they provide the seamless elegance of full height shutters.
-
Precision Light Control
Adjust the louvres on each tier independently to manage strong sunlight, control glare, and create the perfect ambient lighting in your room all day long.
Tier-on-Tier Shutters — common questions
Everything Kent homeowners and businesses ask us before booking a free home visit.
-
Q1 Are these shutters suitable for ground floor windows near the street?
Yes, they are an ideal solution for ground floor properties. You can maintain complete privacy at eye level by keeping the bottom tier closed, yet still welcome natural light through the open or louvered top tier.
-
Q2 Can the louvres be controlled independently on each tier?
Absolutely. Each tier is a self-contained unit with its own tilt rod or hidden mechanism. This allows you to angle the top and bottom louvres separately, giving you highly precise control over light direction and privacy levels.
-
Q3 What types of windows work best with Tier-on-Tier Shutters?
They are particularly well-suited for taller windows, including traditional sash windows and large bay windows, as the independent tiers naturally complement the window’s vertical proportions and size.
-
Q4 When Tier-on-Tier Shutters are fully closed, do they look different from full height shutters?
When both the top and bottom panels are closed, Tier-on-Tier Shutters maintain the same elegant, cohesive appearance as full height shutters. The visible division line between the tiers is placed to complement your window’s existing design or architectural features.
