Tier-on-tier shutters with two separate panels stacked on each window, so you can open the top for light and keep the bottom closed for privacy, a flexible choice for tall windows.
Tier-on-tier shutters split a tall window into two sets of panels, each with its own hinges and louvers. You can open or tilt the top and bottom separately. Homeowners in Nashville use them on tall living room and bedroom windows where privacy and light needs differ by height.
We measure the window and choose where the split falls, usually at a natural line such as a mid-rail, and select louver size and finish. Each tier hangs on its own hinges and can open, close or tilt independently. We explain the extra panels and hardware this adds, and how the look changes when one tier is open and the other closed. We install the frame and adjust each tier for alignment. Tier-on-tier shutters shine on tall windows where privacy needs change with height. We set the split line by eye, standing in the room and looking at the window from different positions. The split often lines up with a window mullion or a natural horizon. A well-chosen split looks planned and makes the shutters easier to use.
The break between tiers is set at a natural line so the window looks balanced when both tiers are closed.
The top and bottom tiers open, tilt and close independently for flexible privacy.
Louvers line up across tiers so the shutter looks like one piece when closed.
Frames are secured and each tier is adjusted for even gaps.
