Plantation Shutter Styles for Any Shape

Finding window treatments for many types of standard rectangular windows isn’t complicated because standard measurements simplify shopping; you can find solutions available at every price point.

Custom or specialty-shaped windows are another story.

Arched windows, bays, and glass patio doors grab attention, but off-the-shelf treatments won’t accommodate the distinctive shapes. Our design experts at A Shade Above encourage you to consider the preks of custom interior shutters for your specialty-shaped windows. Many homeowners don’t realize that shutters will fit even the most unique shapes at first, but then they see the stunning results.

How Plantation Shutter Styles Fit Specialty Shape Windows

Custom interior shutters—also called plantation shutters—solve unconventional window shape covering challenges by following your window’s exact window contours. Our personalized in-house construction and customizable design make them ideal for arches and specialty shapes.

Our talented team creates curved panels for arched openings, angled sections for triangular windows, and circular configurations for round designs. Each result has that classic elegance that makes shutters so appealing.

Plantation Shutter Styles for Arches, Bays, and Triangular Windows

Arched windows benefit from shutters that follow the natural curve and operate as needed. The lower rectangular portion typically has standard louvers, while the arched section gets shaped. We customize these for multi-panel arches, full arches, eyebrow arches, trapezoids, rakes, and angles.

We angle individual panels for bay windows to match each window section. This design works well for family rooms, dining rooms, and breakfast or reading nooks. Triangular windows, common in gabled ends and contemporary homes, require careful consideration of louver orientation, as louvers must complement the window’s geometric lines.

Bifold Shutters and Bypass Track Shutters

Bifold shutters provide an elegant solution for large, tall windows, French doors, and sliding door combinations. These multi-panel systems fold against the wall when opened, for added convenience. The accordion-style operation makes them practical for daily use but keeps the sophisticated appearance these shutters are known for. We make them in three configurations, with two or three panels.

Bypass track shutters cover expansive windows and sliding glass doors with an overhead track system. Our experts customize them with two, four, or six panels.
