Shutters in Radlett

Radlett sits on Watling Street between Elstree and St Albans, and most of its housing is twentieth century detached, built on the wide plots that came out of the Newberries and Aldenham estates. Frontages tend to be broad rather than tall, with paired or triple casement units and generous ground floor glazing to the front. Because those front rooms face the road directly, shutters are usually specified for daytime privacy with the louvres angled up.

The newer builds and the many rebuilt or heavily extended houses around Cobden Hill, Loom Lane and Gills Hill often carry very tall windows in double height hallways and stairwells. Those are the openings where reach and safety matter: panels are made in stacked sections with an operating rod or a motorised option where a louvre cannot be reached from the floor.

Rear elevations in WD7 are almost always glazed to the garden, frequently with a lantern over the kitchen. Combining full height shutters at door level with a fitted skylight blind above keeps the room usable through the middle of a summer day, which is the single most common brief we get from this postcode.
