The Greystone Guide to Bay Window Shutters
Bay windows are a defining architectural feature of many homes, bringing in space, character, and natural light. However, they can also be one of the trickiest window types to find the right solution for. Curtains often hide the shape, and blinds rarely fit neatly, so off-the-shelf options don’t tend to work well.
This is why our custom, made-to-measure shutters are a popular choice for bay windows across the West Midlands, including Walsall, Wolverhampton, Birmingham and the surrounding areas. They are designed and fitted to follow the shape of the window and enhance it, rather than covering it.
Why Bay Windows Need a Bespoke Approach
A bay window is never a ‘standard’ job. It involves multiple angled sections (usually 3, 5, or 7) that all must meet perfectly.
Additionally, no two bay windows are the same. Differences in builders and property ages means a bay window on a property in Sedgley will be different than a window on a property in Wednesbury, even though it is only down the road. Due to this, a unique process is followed when compared to blinds and curtains.
1. Accurate Measuring
Each bay is made up of a different number of angled sections that need to meet perfectly. Careful measuring of all parts of the window ensure the shutters fit themselves and the window perfectly
2. Custom Frames
Each frame is made specifically for your bay window so the shutters follow every angle and contour neatly. This ensures everything lines up smoothly, with no gaps or awkward joins between the panels.
3. A Seamless Look
With careful assembly and installation, the shutters sit naturally within the window so they feel like part of the original architecture – clean, simple and timeless.
4. Customer Involvement Every Step of the Way
As with all shutter types offered by us, we involve you in every design choice and offer honest advice on what would best suit your window, giving you the peace of mind that what you imagine will turn up and be installed.
