What actually matters in a en-suite
Every Handforth en-suite project we quote hinges on the same set of questions:
- Very small window sizes (600mm and under)
- Shower steam right on the glass
- Obscure-glass privacy that still lets light in
- No space for reveal-fit — face-fit only
Waterproof ABS only — an en-suite window sits closer to the shower than a main bathroom's usually does.
Our default en-suite specification
Across Handforth en-suites we mostly fit:
- Café-style ABS
- Full-height ABS
- Custom-shaped for velux and gable
Small en-suite windows suit café-style — half-height covers the fixture line, top stays clear for extraction.
63mm louvres suit the smaller opening proportions; 89mm looks oversized on a 600mm window.

- Face-fit works when the reveal is too shallow (25mm or less) — we template on survey.

Property-fit proof
A specification shaped by 1930s semi openings
We start with the opening, not a stock package. In Handforth, that means accounting for 1930s semi, 1980s estate detached, modern new build and selecting frames, panel widths and materials around those constraints.

Common Questions
Frequently asked
Which shutters suit a 1930s semi en-suite?
Café-style ABS is the usual default. Small en-suite windows suit café-style — half-height covers the fixture line, top stays clear for extraction.
What does a Handforth en-suite shutter project usually cost?
£320–£520 per en-suite window. Whole-room Handforth projects sit inside the £2,000 – £5,500 band across the house. Every figure fixed and 90-day valid.
Do you fit en-suite shutters in Handforth?
Yes — SK9 3 are on our regular survey run. 28 min from Stockton Heath, and en-suites are one of the most-quoted rooms across Handforth.
There's no reveal depth — can you still fit shutters?
Yes — face-fit shutters bracket to the front of the frame. We measure the fixture surround on survey day. In Handforth, that's the answer for the 1930s semis and 1980s estate detached we survey most weeks.
Will it survive being right next to the shower?
ABS shutters and PVC blinds both do — same materials used in gym showers and public leisure centres. Hardwood and fabric will not. In Handforth, that's the answer for the 1930s semis and 1980s estate detached we survey most weeks.
