SPLIT TILT<br />

Louvre rotations are split into multiple rotations, or tilts, to provide better closure, privacy and light<br />

control. Panels over 1000mm in height will be manufactured with a split tilt by default, or you can<br />

specify your preferred split tilt location. It is important to note that rotations greater than 1000mm<br />

high on a single rotation WILL NOT have maximum closure and have more light seepage. This is<br />

particularly prevalent with polymer shutters and a normal feature, so it is highly recommended to<br />

utilise split tilts.<br />

• 50/50 - a split halfway<br />

• 50/50 CAM - split halfway above the divider rail<br />

• 50/50 CBM - split halfway below the divider rail<br />

• Custom splits - measure from bottom of window<br />

to required location<br />

STILES<br />

The vertical strips either side of a shutter panel can be square, astragal or rebate to control light<br />

gaps where panels meet.<br />
