All About Original Arch Shades

Arched windows, also known as half circle windows, can be really tricky. They are so beautiful and we love how they show light through them, but at the same time, we kind of want to cover up that bright light that hits you in the face every morning. Then there’s the issue of having different shaped arch windows and finding shades to fit them.

We get questions all the time about our Original Arch Shade, and we want to help you make it work for your half circle window.

Some of the more common arch windows:

Perfect Arch (28” to 84”)

Eyebrow (28” to 84”)

Extended Eyebrow (28” to 80”)

Perfect Quarter Circle (14” to 42”)

Extended Quarter Eyebrow (14” to 40”)

Perfect Circle (28” to 84”)

Our Original Arch shade is designed for a perfect arch, but don’t fret! There are ways we can help you so that it will fit your imperfect arch. Now, our shade may not work for all the above mentioned arch windows, like the eyebrow or square shape, so you may be better off getting a custom shade made for these types.
