LOUVRE SIZES

Larger louvres create panels with fewer louvres and wider views.

CHOOSING YOUR PANEL LAYOUT

Panel layout can depend on window width and configuration. Fewer and wider panels achieve a more contemporary look with an open view, but if panels are to be opened the situation around the window is more critical the wider the panels become. Extra wide panels are available in select shutter materials. For those smaller rooms where space is at a premium, narrower panels are more functional but give the décor a more traditional look.

DECO FRAMES

The Deco series is for outside mount applications and creates the look of a custom framed window. Suitable for all interior wall surfaces deco frames decorate the window opening while covering up any geometrical imperfections.

Z-FRAMES

Z frames are for inside mount applications creating shutter installations that are aligned with the face of the reveal opening and don’t protrude into the room. There are a range of Z frame styles which can either create a big shutter presence or a minimalist compact appearance. Also, again if your windows have some geometrical imperfections (i.e. out of square) Z frames are a great installation method to hide the opening flaws.

MISSION SILL CAP

The mission sill cap offers modern style and can “cap” most marble or stone sills effectively building out the sill for a more traditional look. The sill cap can also create a sill if the existing window opening is without a sill.

MISSION SILL FRAME

Compared to the mission sill cap, the mission sill frame offers a more petite sill with less projection into the room.

Direct Mount Options

Hang Strip
Direct Mount

HANG STRIP

The hang strip is a very compact installation method and if installed inside the window opening behind the shutter panel can give you the look of having no frame at all. This provides a minimal look with the shutter panels footprint completely inside the window opening. Note the opening has to be very square for such an installation. For those out of square windows the hang strip can also be face mounted outside the window reveal but note leave at least a 12mm gap between the edge of the window reveal and inside edge of the hang strip to provide a light block (top, bottom and sides) for the installation.

Can be installed on:

Square edge plaster board or concrete reveals with trim
Square edge plaster board or concrete reveals without trim
Wood reveals with trim
Wood reveals without trim

DIRECT MOUNT

Shutters can be ordered with no frame or hang strips at all. They can be mounted directly within the window opening. A great look with pre-existing window frame joinery. However, the window opening needs to be square and specialised hinges are available from Norman for such installations.

Can be installed on:

Wood reveals with trim
Wood reveals without trim

DAYNITE™ SHUTTER

Norman’s DayNite™ shutter combines a single compact corded honeycomb shade installed to a batten behind the shutter frame providing the ultimate dimming effect, energy efficiency and noise dampening for any room in the home.

DayNite™ shutters can significantly calm and darken your room blocking out up to 97% of UV light. Coupled with the shutter, a virtually blackout room darkening effect is created. A perfect solution for shutters in a bedroom, a home theatre, or anywhere light control is critical. Not only does the added insulation in DayNite™ shutters help to lower your utility bills, it makes your home cooler in summer and warmer in winter. We utilise the same quality honeycomb fabric found Norman’s Portrait Honeycomb Collection.
