Unsure how to dress your bathroom windows? In this blog, we outline the very best shutters for bathrooms.
Can You Put Shutters In A Bathroom?
Yes! Shutters make an excellent window dressing for bathrooms.
There are various ways to dress a bathroom window. Some people opt for something as simple as a frosted window film. Others choose bathroom blinds. And some stick to traditional options, such as sheer curtains or fabric drapes.
However, some of these options are not the best in terms of practicality. Fabric window dressings, such as curtains or various styles of blinds, can hold onto moisture. This can lead to mildew and mould on the fabrics. Plus, they are difficult to clean and may need replacing regularly.
The best option when choosing a window dressing for the bathroom is to choose a waterproof option. Aside from water splashes, waterproof window dressings will also withstand years’ worth of condensation and moisture.
Faux wood shutters are an excellent choice for bathrooms. They are both practical and stylish.
Best Types Of Shutters For Bathrooms
Waterproof Shutters are without a doubt the best type of shutters for bathrooms. Most shutter styles are available in a faux wood material
This waterproof option looks just as amazing as real wood shutters, the only difference is – it’s manufactured from a high grade ABS (a hard, lightweight plastic).
This makes waterproof shutters 100% waterproof, meaning they’re perfect for areas where high moisture, condensation or humidity issues will affect wood. They look identical to their wooden counterparts, and they’re just as strong, durable and high-quality.
This allows you to have beautiful, versatile shutters that won’t warp over time. Better yet, shutters for bathrooms are easy to maintain and clean. They can just be wiped down with a dry cloth!
You can choose from various waterproof shutter styles. When it comes to shutter styles, the most popular shutters for bathrooms are:
Full Height Waterproof Shutters
Full height shutters are the most popular style of shutters on the market. They feature two panels that open and close independently from one another. And they have louvres that can be adjusted to control the light and privacy levels.
These stylish and practical shutters suit every room in the home and look amazing on all windows. Waterproof full height shutters are a popular choice for bathrooms. They are available in a range of colours.
Tier On Tier Waterproof Shutters
Tier on tier shutters are similar to full height shutters. The difference is each panel has a mid-rail separating the top half of the panel from the bottom half. Both halves of the panel open and close independently from each other.
This means you can open the top panels to let the daylight flood in but keep the bottom panels closed for privacy. They also have adjustable louvres.
Waterproof tier on tier shutters are the most versatile shutters in our range and are perfect if you have tall bathroom windows.
Café-Style Waterproof Shutters
Although they don’t cover the whole length of the window, café style shutters are still a relatively popular option for bathrooms. They cover just the bottom half of the window, letting the light flood in through the top half of the window.
If your home is not overlooked, waterproof café style shutters may be a great option for your bathroom. They are beneficial if you have a small bathroom that requires a lot of light.
Shaped Waterproof Shutters
Many homes have very small or unusually shaped windows in their bathrooms, such as circular or arched windows. These can be tricky to dress.
Thankfully, waterproof Shaped Shutters make the best window dressing for shaped windows. They are made to measure and will perfectly fit your window.
