Shutters are custom-crafted to fit any window, including specialty windows. The Polywood Shutter Company hand-shapes each shutter uniquely, taking into account the exact curvature and dimensions of the window.
Custom Shutters for Arched Windows
Arched windows are beautiful, but they can be tricky to cover with ordinary window treatments. Fortunately, arched shutters are The Polywood Shutter Company’s most common specialty window treatment.. Whether it's called an arched window, radius window, semicircle window – the Polywood Shutter Company can custom craft the shutter to fit just right.
Arched Shutters Fit Any Arched Window Perfectly
What makes plantation shutters a great choice for arched windows? Mostly because shutters can be built to fit the exact dimensions of the window.Louvered Arches Vs. Sunburst Arches
For the arch part of the window, there are two styles of shutters: louvered arches and sunburst arches. The choice will affect how the louvers move. With a louvered arch, every louver on the shutter panel will be controlled with the tilt rod. With a Sunburst arch, each louver in the arch section will tilt independently from each other. Also, the Sunburst arch is stationary, with only the bottom-half being able to swing open and closed on its hinge.
Keep The Unique Shape Of Arched Windows
The chief benefit of interior shutters for arched windows is that they’re custom built to the exact dimensions and angles of the window. Shutters, unlike other window treatments, will keep the distinctive shape of the window and won't just hide it with an ill-fitting rectangular window treatment. Arched windows can make a statement, and shutters let them speak for themselves.
