TIER ON TIER PLANTATION SHUTTERS


Tier-on-Tier Shutters – Flexible, Elegant Solutions for Your Home

Discover the beauty and versatility of Tier-on-Tier shutters — a sophisticated shutter style that offers the best of both worlds: full light control and effortless adjustability. At The ShutterShack, we design, manufacture and install Tier-on-Tier shutters for homes across Dorset, including Bournemouth, Poole, Christchurch, Ringwood and Fordingbridge.

What Are Tier-on-Tier Shutters?

Tier-on-Tier shutters are made up of two separate sets of panels (tiers) within the same window frame: an upper tier and a lower tier. Each tier operates independently, allowing you to:

  • Open the top panels for daylight and views, while keeping the bottom closed for privacy

  • Close the top for full shading or working from home comfort

  • Adjust each tier to suit changing light levels throughout the day

This flexibility makes Tier-on-Tier shutters a smart choice for living rooms, bay windows, street-facing properties and any space where light, view and privacy all matter.

Why Choose Tier-on-Tier for Your Dorset Home?

Here are some reasons local homeowners choose this style:

  • Unrivalled flexibility — Two tiers mean more ways to control light and privacy than a single full-height shutter.

  • Stylish and timeless — The classic look suits both period homes in Christchurch and contemporary builds in Poole.

  • Optimised view — In homes by the coast or countryside (think Bournemouth or Ringwood), the top tier can stay open to keep your window vista unobstructed.

  • Perfect for bay windows & wide openings — Tier-on-Tier works beautifully across larger window spans and boxed bays.

  • Made to measure — All our shutters are bespoke to your home; sea-air coastal properties in Dorset benefit from premium finishes and materials tailored to last.
