Where did Tier on Tier Shutters Originate?
The origins of tier on tier shutters are not definitively known. However, some believe that they were invented after solid, full-height shutters, drawing inspiration from stable doors.
What are Tier on Tier Shutters?
Tier on tier shutters, also referred to as double hung shutters, represent a hybrid of full-height and cafe style shutters. This unique design provides complete control over both light and privacy. Each window has two separate shutters, allowing for independent opening and closing of the top and bottom sections. Additionally, the top and bottom louvres can be adjusted separately to achieve desired lighting and privacy levels.
