Nursery shutters: what works in Daresbury sandstone village cottages

Painted hardwood — no accessible cords or chains, and no small hardware within reach of a cot. That's why Daresbury nurserys get a different specification than the rest of the house. 12 min from Stockton Heath; within a week survey turnaround across WA4 4.

The nursery spec, ordered by what matters

Every Daresbury 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.

Our default nursery specification

Across Daresbury 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.

Property-fit proof
