Internal Steel Screens: The Perfect Blend of Style and Functionality
Crittall Windows on how steel windows, doors and internal screens are taking the design world by storm
In the ever-evolving world of interior design, homeowners across the UK are constantly looking for ways to create spaces that are both stylish and practical. One trend in particular that has taken the design world by storm is the use of steel windows, doors and internal screens. As a company renowned for manufacturing high-quality steel systems, Crittall Windows is at the forefront of this growing trend that is filling homes up and down the country.
The main appeal of steel screens is their ability to effortlessly transform open plan living spaces into more distinct areas without compromising on two of the most highly desired elements of interior design – natural light and spaciousness.
Russell Ager, MD at Crittall Windows, said: “While open-plan layouts have been incredibly popular over recent years, we’ve seen a slight shift as many homeowners are now looking for ways to create more defined spaces within their homes.
“At Crittall Windows, we have a range of internal screens which allow you to divide rooms and maintain an airy, connected feel.”
Internal screen benefits
One of the key benefits of installing internal screens is their ability to reduce internal noise without closing off the space entirely.
“Whether homeowners are looking to design a quiet reading nook or a peaceful home office, these screens act as a barrier, helping to minimise the amount of noise being transferred from room to room,” adds Russell.
Another fantastic advantage of internal screens is their ability to provide an extra layer of privacy, creating cosy corners or intimate dining areas within larger rooms.
Bespoke designs and styles
The sleek and minimalist frames of steel internal screens are synonymous with those first introduced in the UK by Crittall Windows in 1849. Although the black steel remains incredibly popular among homeowners, nowadays the screens aren’t limited to industrial-style interiors.
“Over the years we have developed our steel products so that customers have more choice,” comments Russell.
“We now have a range of customisation options which means our internal steel screens can complement any interior décor, including everything from the more traditional to contemporary.
“Our Innervision® internal screens, for example, feature incredibly slim sightlines and are available in any RAL, British Standard or bespoke shade colours so they can be tailored to meet your exact specifications.”
The flexibility in the final finish also extends to the configuration of the screens, ensuring there’s a solution that perfectly fits any space constraints.
Performance matters
Although the overall aesthetic is important, the performance of the internal screens shouldn’t be forgotten as Russell explains.
“It’s not just about looks, it’s essential you invest in an internal screen that has been designed with performance in mind. As a key feature within your home, you need to feel confident the internal screen is durable, has a long lifespan and requires minimal maintenance over the years.”
Ultimately, whether you’re renovating a period property, putting the finishing touches on a new build or looking to update your existing home, internal screens are a timeless design solution. Their versatility offers the perfect balance between open plan living and defined spaces, allowing homeowners to enjoy the best of both worlds.
