Dealing with odd shaped windows

Shaped windows:

  • odd window shapes
  • triangular windows

these are challenges that our customers contact us with when they are looking for a window treatment. But shaped windows do not have to be a challenge to decorate!

When thinking of window treatments for an odd shaped window, customers automatically think of curtains and drapes. These types of window treatment for shaped windows can be cumbersome, bulky and can mean that you lose the shape of the window behind a square of fabric.

It is important to work out some kind of coverage for a shaped window, not only for privacy, but also light control. There are a few points which need to be considered when choosing a window treatment, you need to ask yourself what you need from the window coverings.

Do you need privacy? If yes, window shutters are perfect for the job. Our shutters for windows come within their own frame which can be arched, triangular, circular or any other shape to match your window profile. The shutter panels fit within the frame and the panels come with tilt-able louvers. The slats or louvers open and close in both directions meaning that the slats can be tilted so that from the outside, no-one can see in.

Do you want to protect your home wares and home from the glare of sunlight? Window shutter slats within the panels of speciality shaped shutters tilt open and closed in both directions, meaning that you can direct the light in the room through the day in different directions. Whether you choose to have a rod on the front of your panels to open and close the slats, or simply touch the slats to enable the rest to tilt, shutters at shaped windows are simple to use and instantly reduce the glare of sunlight.

Warmth and insulation from window shutters

Are you concerned about thermal issues at your windows? The Kelly Hoppen range of designer shutters for windows are manufactured only in high quality Yellow Poplar or Elm hard woods. Wood itself is a natural insulator, and having a shutter frame and the shutter panels enclose a window (which before might have only been a thin pane of glass between the room and the outside) can help reduce draughts and help to give a layer of insulating protection.

Window shutters on shaped windows, not only look gorgeous but they also are fully functional and beneficial to the home. Read more about shutter style and useful tips here.
