Do you fit blinds and shutters in splay and box bays?

Yes — both are part of standard bay configurations. Splay bays usually need 3 or 5 panels joined at the angle; square/box bays use 4 panels with corner posts. We measure each on-site before quoting.

Do you fit plantation shutters for landlords and letting agents in Hawkinge?

Yes — we do a lot of work for Hawkinge landlords. Quotes are itemised per window and turnaround on standard ranges is typically 2–3 weeks.

What's the warranty on the install?

5 years on the installation work and a lifetime guarantee on the product itself for plantation shutters. Blinds carry the manufacturer's warranty plus our 5-year install warranty.

How long do plantation shutters take from order to fit?

Most painted hardwood ranges are 6–8 weeks; specialist shaped or motorised orders can run to 10–12 weeks. We confirm timings in writing at your design visit.

Bespoke Plantation Shutters Across Hawkinge (CT18)for Bay Windows

Whether you're near the Battle of Britain Memorial or further out, plantation shutters in Hawkinge all start the same way: a free in-home visit so we can measure properly.

Plantation Shutters for bay windows: what we look for

Bay windows are the trickiest single window type to dress well. Get the panelling, joinery angles or fabric tension wrong and the whole bay looks unfinished — get it right and a bay becomes the focal point of the room.

Each panel or blind is measured individually so the line follows the bay rather than fighting it.
Square, splay and box bays each behave differently — survey decides the right approach.
Lead, sash and uPVC bays all have different fixing constraints to plan for at survey.
Pricing is per panel for shutters and per drop for blinds — we always show a clear per-window breakdown.

Things Hawkinge customers ask about most

Reveal depth at all four corners — most Hawkinge period reveals are out by 5–15 mm.
Existing trickle vents and how the dressing will clear them.
Window operating direction — top-hung, side-hung, sash — to choose the right fixing.
Headroom above the frame for cassette systems or stack-back on bi-folds.
