What are the challenges of covering arched windows?

The main challenge of covering arched windows is their non-standard shape. Treatments must be custom-made to fit the curve precisely while still allowing for light control and maintaining the architectural integrity of the arch.

Can arched window coverings be functional (open and close)?

Yes, while some arched treatments are fixed, options like Duette® Cellular Shades and certain custom shutters (Heritance® Wood Shutters) can be designed to be fully operable, allowing the homeowner to open and close them as needed.

Are there sheer shade options for arched windows?

Yes, sheer shades such as Silhouette® Sheer Shades and Pirouette® Sheer Shades can be adapted for arched windows, often in a fixed position, to diffuse light beautifully while preserving the arch shape.

Do shutters work well on arched windows?

Shutters, including Palm Beach™ Polysatin™ Vinyl Shutters, are an excellent choice for arched windows. They can be custom-crafted to match the exact radius of the arch, providing a clean, permanent solution.
