Why a nursery shutter is a different job

Every Croft nursery project we quote hinges on the same set of questions:

  • Child-safety cord regulations (BS EN 13120)
  • True blackout for daytime naps
  • Quiet operation during a sleeping baby
  • Wipe-clean for spit-up and nappy accidents

Painted hardwood — no accessible cords or chains, and no small hardware within reach of a cot.

The short list for a Croft nursery

Across Croft nurserys we mostly fit:

  • Full-height painted with hidden hinges
  • Tier-on-tier for older-child rooms
  • Solid-panel for total blackout

Shutters have no cords, chains or reachable pull-strings — inherently BS EN 13120 compliant.

Solid-panel shutters give 100% blackout; louvred shutters plus a rear blackout blind gives the same result with more flexibility.

Details that matter

  • Shutters have no cords, chains or reachable pull-strings — inherently BS EN 13120 compliant.
  • Solid-panel shutters give 100% blackout; louvred shutters plus a rear blackout blind gives the same result with more flexibility.
  • Louvres above the cot line, solid below — the split protects a baby standing at the cot bar.

Common Questions

Frequently asked

What does a Croft nursery shutter project usually cost?

£450–£720 per nursery window. Whole-room Croft projects sit inside the £2,000 – £4,800 band across the house. Every figure fixed and 90-day valid.

Do you fit nursery shutters in Croft?

Yes — WA3 7 are on our regular survey run. 15 min from Stockton Heath, and nurserys are one of the most-quoted rooms across Croft.

Which shutters suit a village cottage nursery?

Full-height painted with hidden hinges is the usual default. Shutters have no cords, chains or reachable pull-strings — inherently BS EN 13120 compliant.

How dark can we get the room for naps?

Cassetted blackout rollers or solid-panel shutters both reach 99%+. A louvred shutter plus a rear blackout blind is the belt-and-braces spec parents pick most often. In Croft, that's the answer for the village cottages and 1970s detached we survey most weeks.

Which products are legally safe around a cot?

Anything without accessible cords or looped chains — shutters, cordless roller blinds, motorised blinds and perfect-fit cellular all qualify. BS EN 13120 is the standard we work to as default. In Croft, that's the answer for the village cottages and 1970s detached we survey most weeks.
