Discover eight stylish shutter options in Ancoats
From loft-style windows to compact apartments, we offer a shutter type for every Ancoats home. Full height shutters give timeless elegance, tier on tier designs offer flexibility, and café shutters bring street-level privacy with daylight above. For wide openings, tracked shutters slide with ease, while shaped shutters tackle unusual frames. Solid panels deliver peace and darkness, bay window shutters enhance angles and insulation, and blackout shutters help bedrooms stay restful. Each option is built in hardwood and customised to your lifestyle.

Full height shutters
Full height shutters stretch from top to bottom, creating a clean finish that suits both industrial conversions and modern apartments in Ancoats. They work beautifully on tall windows, letting you open wide for daylight or close for instant privacy. Adding a mid rail improves stability and allows top and bottom louvres to move separately—ideal for versatile living spaces where conditions change throughout the day. Crafted in real wood, they’re as durable as they are stylish.

Tier on tier shutters
Tier on tier shutters divide your window into two sections, each working independently. This makes them perfect for Ancoats’ townhouses or flats overlooking busy streets, where privacy is needed without blocking all the light. Keep the bottom closed and the top open to brighten your space, or adjust both as you like. Designed to suit heritage or modern windows, they combine function with a refined finish.

Café style shutters
Café style shutters cover the lower part of your window, shielding you from passers-by while keeping the top free for daylight. In ground-floor apartments and homes across Ancoats, this design strikes a balance between privacy and brightness. Styled in crisp white or warmer finishes, café shutters are easy to clean, durable and a charming addition to living rooms, kitchens and dining areas.

Tracked shutters
Apartments with wide glazing or bifold doors benefit from tracked shutters, which slide effortlessly along a slim track. When open, they stack neatly to the side; when closed, they provide shade, privacy and insulation. Perfect for open-plan living spaces, tracked shutters bring practicality without clutter, suiting both contemporary new-builds and warehouse conversions in Ancoats.

Shaped shutters
Many Ancoats loft conversions feature unusual window shapes—arches, triangles or oversized frames. Shaped shutters are tailored to fit perfectly, following every angle or curve while still giving you full control of light and privacy. By templating each frame individually, we ensure smooth louvre movement and a balanced look, enhancing the architectural character of your home.

Solid shutters
Solid shutters provide full coverage, blocking out light and draughts completely. They’re ideal for bedrooms or living spaces in Ancoats where peace and darkness are priorities. In heritage buildings, they echo traditional joinery, while in modern apartments they add bold, minimalist charm. Built from hardwood, solid shutters are durable, low-maintenance and highly effective at noise reduction.

Bay window shutters
Though less common in new builds, many townhouses and converted terraces in Ancoats feature bay windows. Plantation shutters enhance these spaces, giving insulation, symmetry and control over daylight. Each bay is measured precisely, ensuring smooth operation and a polished look. They’re a perfect match for both classic and modern homes.

Blackout shutters
Light pollution can be a challenge in central Manchester. Blackout shutters combine solid hardwood panels with a discreet blackout blind to keep bedrooms and nurseries dark. Ideal for shift workers, families and anyone sensitive to light, they fold away during the day and transform your space into a restful retreat at night.
