What Window Treatment Is Best For Arched Windows In Baltimore?

January 06, 2017

Arched or often called eyebrow windows are rectangular in size with a rounded top. They are striking in your home’s interior, but their trademark long curved top makes it a challenge to find window treatments to accommodate them. You wouldn’t want to hide their delightful look with a square window treatment, but they may let in uncomfortable sun glare you want to stay away from. So what are the top arched window treatments in Baltimore? Custom-made plantation shutters are the perfect option. They’ll match your window’s exact shape and supply all the benefits you expect to get from top-end window treatments.

Interior Shutters Highlight Your Window’s Shape

Eyebrow and other types of arched windows are so attractive that hiding yours behind an unflattering window covering would be a pity. While window shades and blinds regularly come as rectangles, plantation shutters can fit any window size or shape. This versatility makes them perfect for eyebrow windows and any arched window. Your custom shutter frame will adhere to the precise lines of the window, highlighting the arch. Then, depending on the dimensions of your window, the louvers can be situated in a “sunburst” radiating from the lower middle of the window or as horizontally aligned rows all the way to the top. Both configurations are totally operable and appealing.

You can order indoor shutters fabricated from natural wood or a solid wood synthetic like Polywood® shutters. Wood shutters come in a variety of classic tints to harmonize with your interior. Polywood shutters provide incredible durability and are white, to suit any interior design. They won’t distort in humid kitchens and bathrooms or lose their color in windows with overflowing sunshine.

Plantation Shutters Manage Sunlight And Drafts

You might leave your arched window untreated, but most residents like and require some type of window treatment in Baltimore if that window lets in hot UV rays and sun glare. Interior shutters effectively manage heat, light, and drafts. Outdoor elements can’t get past their sturdy construction. The little amount of sunlight that exists between the louvers produces only a slight glow. Their louvers also keep back most cold and warmth from your window. Actually, energy-smart Polywood shutters have innovative weather sealing that obstructs up to 30 degrees of temperature transfer.

Plantation Shutters On High Windows Are Still A Breeze To Clean

You’ll often notice eyebrow windows above doors or other larger windows. This positioning means they’re up high and possibly problematic to access. This elevation presents an obstacle when cleaning various window coverings but not indoor shutters.

To clean an eyebrow window plantation shutter in Baltimore, merely use an extendable duster to get up to the shutter. It’s simple to slide a duster around the corners and between the louvers to get every bit of dust. You’ll also appreciate how the shutter won’t sway or bend like shades or blinds.
