  • Currently having some sash windows installed, and using it as an opportunity to rethink options around blinds/curtains.

    Current setup is Venetian blinds behind curtain tracks curved around the window bay. They are OK but I'm not enamoured with either.

    Anyone got any experience buying and/or installing:

    1: plantation shutters
    2: ceiling-mounted curtain tracks (ceiling of the bay is pretty much flush with the edge of the architrave)

    I'm keen to minimise drilling into our nice new windows

  • We've got plantation throughout, 2 bays, patio doors and a load of smaller windows. Got a local family firm (Shades) to do it. They basically attach a frame to the window and the shutters fix to that frame.

  • We used someone like utterly shutterly from Brighton. Send a guy round to measure, few weeks later pops the frame in then the shutters being prefab. Took no time, look great imo and 5 years on working wrll
