Posted on by Pam May

Custom-shaped windows are elegant additions to any home. These windows are specifically designed to enhance the look of your home and match its unique aesthetic. However, if you have custom-shaped windows, you might struggle to find the right window treatment for your home. Curtains may not look quite right, while blinds don’t always fit correctly.  You might be wondering if plantation shutters can be installed on these  windows. In fact, custom made plantation shutters and custom-shaped windows are a perfect match. 

Custom Made Plantation Shutters Can Fit Any Window Size or Shape

When you’re looking for plantation shutters for your custom-shaped windows, you’ll want to install custom-made plantation shutters to go with them. Plantation shutters that are measured and designed to fit your window are the best choice no matter your window type, but they are especially suited for custom-shaped windows. 

Plantation shutters allow you to control the sunlight that filters in and out of your home. This gives you the ability to control the amount of light in each room. Plantation shutters also provide privacy and are energy-efficient. This is especially useful if your custom-shaped windows are fixed, or do not open. The plantation shutter design will naturally keep your home cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter regardless of your window’s functionality. 

There are many different custom window shapes. Some of the most popular include octagonal windows, half-circle, triangular, and slant-top windows. The woodworking team at Shenandoah Shutters can handcraft plantation shutters for any window type.

Plantation shutters are an ideal way to add a layer of privacy to your doors and sidelights without sacrificing the beauty and light that these home features provide. 

There are a variety of installation solutions available to allow you to keep the functionality of your door while maintaining the beauty of plantation shutters.This is true even if you have an unusually shaped door handle. 

Plantation Shutters for Sunbursts and Arches

Sunbursts and arch windows have grown in popularity over the years. Plantation shutters look gorgeous on these distinctive windows. Because of their charm and character, hardwood plantation shutters are especially appealing on these windows. 

Hardwood is the material of choice for plantation shutters. While plantation shutters can be found in vinyl, faux wood, and composite choices, all of these materials are made to imitate natural hardwood. That’s why Shenandoah Shutters crafts plantation shutters using only the finest American, natural  woods. Our hardwood plantation shutters are durable and easily cut to fit your custom-shaped windows.
