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.
On a Hythe survey, this is what we look at
- Catalogue sizing forced into a non-square reveal — gaps you can see daylight through.
- Wrong fixing into render or lath-and-plaster — brackets pull within months.
- Cord-and-chain installs without break-away tensioners — fails current child-safety regs.
- Recess-fit on listed windows where face-fix was the right call — heritage issue waiting to happen.
