Thanks for our quick response. I think I will need to get professional advice. When fully open the blades and handle protrudes about 80mm from the wall. Not sure if the attached photo will show this. Thanks againRelated Discussions
Louvre windows trend - eco friendly?
Comments (5)Yes, louvres do 'leak' more than some other window types but they also allow for much more effective ventilation as they are around 95% open when versus an awning window which can be as low as 25% open. The big question is where are you? Tasmania or the NT? Generally the solution is to use them sparingly but your designer will be able to advise on how many and where to place them....See MoreCost to replace louvre windows with casement
Comments (1)if they're traditional old fashioned steel and glass louvres you're probably looking at a major renovation that could also involve rebuilding walls and replacing internal and external wall lining and insulation.....you can find prices for some standard sized window and glass doors on websites for the major hardware stores but you'll need a builder or carpenter to install them as it's not a straightforward job for an inexperienced amateur and it's sometimes better to rebuild walls and have windows custom made to suit ......See MoreLouvre window coverings
Comments (7)Hi Susan I would not specify shutters for louvre windows. Apart from curtains, another possible option would be a blind (roman, roller etc) outside mounted ie on the the wall, as it’s likely that when the window is closed the lever won’t be an issue, but probably will protrude past the window trim when open. A customised solution could be to mount the blind so it protrudes further out from the wall than normal, which has downsides that should be weighed up for your particular situation and desires. Motorisation will take the effort out of opening and closing blinds or curtains, and it is easier for you to decide now for hardwire motorisation before the roughing in stage.
