Softedge™ shutters are exclusive to Shenandoah Shutters and use a sculptured edge profile that visually softens the shutter where it meets the window molding. When closed, the design creates a cleaner face with a more built-in feel.
The patented double rollover edge, concealed-hinge look, and absence of a boxy hanging strip make Softedge™ especially useful where the shutter should feel like part of the architecture instead of a separate treatment added after the fact.
Integrated appearance
A concealed-hinge look and cleaner edge help the shutter feel built into the window rather than hung over it.
Custom measured
The profile still depends on careful measuring so the finished result works with the actual casing and opening depth.

Options and fit
Softedge™ design considerations
Your consultation turns product preferences into practical fit decisions: louver clearance, frame depth, trim relationship, operation, finish, and how the room should feel when the shutters are open or closed.
01
Edge profile
The sculptured edge creates a softer transition and avoids the heavy look of standard box-style framing.
02
Concealed-hinge look
When closed, the shutter face appears cleaner and more continuous across the window.
03
Louver and finish choices
Softedge™ can still be planned with room-appropriate louver sizes, finishes, and panel configurations.
04
Architectural fit
Best results come from a consultation that reviews trim depth, casing shape, and desired reveal.
