Arched, round, angled and gable windows can all take shutters. Custom shaped shutters are made to the exact geometry of the opening, so they fit awkward windows that standard blinds cannot. Arched windows add character to any home, but they’re tricky when it comes to window treatments. That’s where bespoke-shaped shutters come in. These custom-made shutters solve the problem perfectly.
What Are Bespoke Shaped Shutters?
Shaped shutters are custom designs made to fit any type of window. Unlike standard rectangular shutters, they follow every curve of your shaped window. Our expert team creates each window shutter to match your exact measurements.Why Choose Custom Shaped Shutters?
Perfect Fit
Standard blinds leave gaps on curved windows. Custom-shaped shutters give you a perfect fit every time. They cover the entire window properly, including all curved sections.Light Control
Plantation shutter louvres give you complete light control. You can adjust them to let in just the right amount of sunlight whilst maintaining privacy.Energy Efficiency
Shutters improve energy efficiency by creating an extra insulation layer. The U.S. Department of Energy states that about 30% of heating energy is lost through windows. Quality shutters help reduce this loss, lowering your bills.Easy Maintenance
Shaped shutters are easy to clean. Simply dust weekly with a soft cloth. They’re much simpler to maintain than curtains or complex blinds.Types of Arched Window Shutters
Full arch shutters cover the entire curved window in one piece. The window frames follow the arch shape perfectly, creating a seamless look. Segmented shutters work well for larger windows. Each section operates independently, making them easier to use. Café-style shutters only cover the bottom half, leaving the arch section open to show off your window’s beautiful shape.Materials and Colours
