76mm Louvre Slats – Shutters

The 76mm louvre slat is a relatively new addition to the market, offering an attractive alternative to traditional slat sizes. This slightly larger louvre provides increased light entry into the room when fully open, making it a popular choice for those seeking a balance between style and functionality.

Where 76mm Louvres Work Best

Full-Height Shutters & Tracked Systems – The 76mm slats are particularly well-suited to full-height shutters and tracked options, providing a clean, modern look while maximising light control.
Medium to Large Windows – This size works beautifully in larger spaces, where the wider slats create an uncluttered and elegant finish without looking lost within the frame.
Tilt Options – Whether operated via a traditional centre tilt rod, semi-concealed tilt, or the more contemporary concealed tilt, these shutters offer flexibility to suit different aesthetics.

Considerations for 76mm Louvres

While 76mm louvres are a fantastic choice for many settings, there are a few key points to keep in mind:
Shorter Windows – If the window has a mid-break or is particularly short, the larger slat size may result in very few slats in the top section, which can look unbalanced.
Bay Windows – The 76mm louvre is not as well-suited to bay windows as the 63mm option. The larger slats can cause the side shutters to sit further away from the glass, reducing their alignment with the window.

If you’re unsure whether 76mm louvres are the right choice for your space, our team is happy to provide expert guidance to ensure the perfect fit for your home.
