This gives you complete flexibility over light, privacy, and ventilation in any room." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "Are tier-on-tier shutters good for privacy?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "Yes, tier-on-tier shutters are one of the best shutter styles for privacy. You can close the bottom panels to block the view from the street while keeping the top panels open for natural light — ideal for ground-floor and street-facing windows." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "How much do tier-on-tier shutters cost?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "The cost of tier-on-tier shutters depends on window size, material, and finish. As every installation is bespoke, we provide free no-obligation quotes. We also offer 0% finance to help spread the cost." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "Do tier-on-tier shutters work on bay windows?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "Absolutely. Tier-on-tier shutters are an excellent choice for bay windows. Each panel can be adjusted independently, allowing you to manage light and privacy across the entire bay." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "Are tier-on-tier shutters suitable for sash windows?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "Yes, they are a natural pairing with traditional sash windows.

Tier-on-tier offers more flexibility for privacy and light control, while full height shutters provide a cleaner, more contemporary look." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "How long does it take to install tier-on-tier shutters?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "Most installations are completed within a single day. After your free consultation and survey, your bespoke shutters are manufactured and then fitted by our experienced team with minimal disruption." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "Can I get tier-on-tier shutters in any colour?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "Yes.

Tier-On-Tier Shutters ![Period drawing room with tier-on-tier shutters and cream sofas](/assets/images/lifestyle-CdJ2hvr1.jpg) The Collection ## The most considered way to dress a sash. Tier-on-tier splits the window horizontally into two independent panels. The top can stand open while the bottom stays closed — or any combination in between. It is the natural choice for traditional sash windows, where the rhythm of two tiers mirrors the original architecture beautifully. Every panel is bespoke to your window, with the mid-rail positioned to align with the sash divide for a result that looks original to the room. ![Tier-on-tier shutters in a period drawing room](/assets/images/lifestyle-CdJ2hvr1.jpg) 01 · The Drawing Room ![Detail of tier-on-tier mid-rail and brushed nickel hinge](/assets/images/detail-COjpUe-3.jpg) 02 · The Detail ![Tier-on-tier shutters with lower panels closed for privacy](/assets/images/vignette-BMtzpYQW.jpg) 03 · Privacy Below Why Homeowners Choose This Style ## Privacy below, sky above. The four reasons tier-on-tier wins on street-facing and overlooked windows. ![Lower panels closed for privacy](/assets/images/vignette-BMtzpYQW.jpg) ### Privacy where you want it Close the bottom tier for instant pavement-level privacy without sacrificing a single ray of light from above. ![Top tier open](/assets/images/hero-Cf_rk0eG.jpg) ### Daylight where you need it Throw open the top tier and the room fills with soft, high daylight — perfect for kitchens, bedrooms and living rooms alike. ![Detail of mid-rail](/assets/images/detail-COjpUe-3.jpg) ### Made for sash windows The mid-rail is positioned to line up with the existing sash — the shutter feels like a natural extension of the architecture. ![Charcoal tier-on-tier shutters in a city apartment window](/__l5e/assets-v1/e1d3c400-f0a1-49ee-8ba4-6a6f0c330c31/tier-on-tier-timeless-character.png) ### Timeless character A heritage detail that works as beautifully in a Victorian terrace as it does in a contemporary new-build. ![Soft daylight through tier-on-tier shutters](/assets/images/hero-Cf_rk0eG.jpg) “It feels like the house has always had them.
