No drill blinds for a bay window - help!

[Cutie101]

I have a large bay window with 5 sections. Each section has a main window and a small window at the top (see photo for example). I want to self fit some blinds and I'm not very handy so want some that don't need to be drilled.
I have used blinds 2 go before and would use but can't see anything that will fit (the glass part on the top windows are 22cm in height).
I ideally want sheer so light still fully coming in but can't see directly into the house.
I'd love shutter style but we also have a vent on some of the windows (see photo) so not sure how these would fit and fitting guides are unclear. We have looked at perfect fit blinds but I'm unsure about look and how much light they will let in.
I'd also be happy with day and night blinds but they don't make to fit the top windows.
I'd love to know what people have done with their bays please...photos would also be appreciated

Shutters fit to the frame and in the recess, so they should work well on your bay. I’d get in contact with a local shutter/blind co and get some quotes. They will have all sorts of solutions.

Blinds 2 Go do great shutter options that are no drill , a local company is like to be megga bucks IME.

I would take a really good photo of the window, then also take measurements including the depth of the recess. Then find the product you like online and email the company with your photo and measurements and ask them if it will work.

Because of the vent we can't seem to get a clear answer if the shutters will fit. Has anyone got similar vents and done this?

We’re about to reorder perfect fit blinds for our new bay window and like you we’ve now got vents . When we ordered the first time they needed to know handle placement measurements. It was all very straightforward and they clipped onto the window recess. They were very helpful and do different sizes of the clips . Just waiting for them to do an offer before we order.

I found myself in the same predicament and decided to reach out to Plantation Shutters, as I had heard great things about them. After my measurement appointment, I chose to have them handle the installation as well - after all, if you're investing in shutters, it makes sense to have them fitted professionally to ensure everything is done right.

Sorry to be nosey but was it really expensive ? We’ve got bays in the house we’re buying and I’ve fell in love with plantation shutters but they’re ££££

We were also tight on budget but they have a cheaper option of mdf which still looks great, we love them and cant tell the difference!
