Special Shape Shutters are bespoke window treatments specifically designed to fit windows that go beyond the standard rectangular or square shape.

The cost is typically higher due to the custom craftsmanship and precise measurements required for unusual shapes. However, the long-term value and transformative effect on your property make them a worthwhile investment.
Absolutely. We specialize in complex shapes, including windows with multiple angles or a combination of curves and straight edges.
While you can take rough measurements for an initial estimate, our team will conduct a detailed measurement during a site visit. This ensures perfect accuracy before production.
It depends on the design. Many can be crafted with hinges allowing them to swing open, though certain highly complex shapes might have fixed components. We’ll discuss options with you during the design phase.
We can divide the shutter into multiple panels or use a track system if necessary, ensuring both coverage and usability for large or wide windows.
Yes! Faux wood is moisture-resistant, making it ideal for humid environments like bathrooms or kitchens, even if the windows are angled or arched.
Typically, it can take 8-12 weeks from initial consultation to final installation, depending on the complexity of the design and the materials selected. You’ll receive a more precise timeline once we finalize the plans.
We recommend ordering shutters in the finish you desire from the start. Repainting is possible but may require professional sanding and repainting to maintain a smooth finish.
Our professional installers use non-invasive methods, typically fixing shutters to the window recess or existing frame with minimal, easily repairable screw holes.
Motorization is more common with blinds or track systems, but in certain louvered designs, we can discuss motorized tilt for hard-to-reach areas. It’s best to consult with our team regarding feasibility.
A telescoping duster or vacuum attachment can help with high shutters. If the area is extremely high or difficult to access, we can provide tips or schedule a periodic professional cleaning.
With proper care, high-quality shutters can easily last 10-20 years or more, retaining their shape, color, and functionality.
While not a substitute for locks or security systems, solid shutters do provide an additional layer of deterrence and make it more difficult to see or access your interiors.
Solid panel shutters offer the most extensive light blockage. Louvered designs allow adjustable light control but may let small amounts of light in through louver gaps.
We bring years of local experience, specialized training, and a commitment to exceptional customer service. Our track record of handling complex window designs in both modern and period properties sets us apart.
