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.

Will plantation shutters work on leaded or stained glass?

Yes. We normally use face-fix rather than recess-fix so the dressing sits clear of the glazing — preserves the leaded panes and makes the install reversible.

How long does a plantation shutters survey take in New Romney?

Most surveys take 45–60 minutes per property. We measure every window, talk through finishes against your actual rooms, and leave you with a written quote.

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 New Romney (TN28)for Bay Windows

Whether you're near St Nicholas Church or further out, plantation shutters in New Romney 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.

Pitched glazing and a south-west aspect — we specified pleated honeycomb with a thermal-coated rear face to drop the room temperature by ~6°C in peak sun.

We surveyed every window in one visit, sequenced the manufacture by room and fitted across two days with one fitter — no disruption to the rest of the build.

Three-metre drops on the staircase needed split panels with a mid-rail so the lower section opens for cleaning without dropping the whole blind.

New Romney-specific points worth knowing

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.
