FAQs About Bay Window Shutters
What is the best way to finish bay window shutters?
Popular bay window shutter colours include grey and white, as well as wood stains for those looking for a rustic aesthetic. There are also warm and neutral color tones available depending on your personal interior design tastes and choices.
What is the best window treatment for bay windows?
In our view, plantation shutters are the best window dressing for bay windows, combining style, functionality, and long-term value. Known for their timeless, luxurious appearance, shutters don't have to be the most expensive option. Our DIY shutters are specially designed for bay windows and can save you over 40% compared to professional installation services, making them an affordable choice for those after cheap plantation shutters. They also offer excellent thermal insulation, outperforming many other window coverings.
Roller blinds are another popular choice for bay windows, especially for homeowners looking for a budget-friendly option. They offer a sleek, modern look, but in terms of light control and privacy, they don’t quite measure up to shutters, and they also lack the insulation benefits that shutters provide.
Drapes are available in a wide variety of styles and colours, making them a flexible option for any interior. While thick drapes can help retain heat, they offer less control over light, noise, and privacy. With bay window drapes, you’re usually limited to having them either fully open or completely closed—there’s little in-between.
Are plantation shutters easy to maintain?
When compared with alternative window dressings such as fabric blinds or drapes, bay window shutters are much easier to maintain. Simply wipe away stains or marks using a damp cloth and dusting is a breeze too!
Shutters will stand the test of time and you can keep them looking at their stylish best for years to come.
