What works well in Folkestone
Bay windows and large sashes are common in Folkestone — shaped and tier-on-tier shutters work beautifully here.
Tall sash bays in the West End
The bay-windowed villas around the West End and the Leas usually have three or five tall sash panes per bay. Each face needs its own measurement because old bays are rarely symmetrical. Tier on tier shutters are a favourite here, because the top tier can open to the sea light while the lower tier screens the pavement.
Creative Quarter flats and Georgian terraces
Flats and narrow terraces around the Creative Quarter often have shallow reveals and little wall space beside the window. Roller and Roman blinds fitted inside the recess keep the frame visible, and vertical blinds suit the wider openings in harbour-side conversions. We measure on the free home visit and check for window handles and radiators.
Getting glare off the sea
Flats facing the harbour or the Channel pick up reflected light off the water. Sheer screen rollers and Luxaflex Silhouette blinds cut the glare while keeping the view, and blackout rollers answer bedrooms that face the morning sun. Blinds usually arrive 2 to 3 weeks after ordering.
