How to Choose Semi-Circle Window Blinds
Semi-circular windows grace many Texas homes, and while many homeowners choose not to cover them with window treatments, others find it necessary. These windows can let in excessive sunlight; outsiders can peek in if they’re on the first floor. But if your heart’s set on installing blinds for a semi-circle window, finding ones that fit isn’t easy.
Fortunately, Blind Ambition Companies customizes horizontal blinds for these specialty-shaped windows. We feature Hunter Douglas products, one of the few brands that does this. We’re happy to explain the style options; our installation experts handle the measuring and final steps.
Why Are Blinds for Semi-Circle Windows Specialty Items?
Traditional horizontal window blinds are adjustable window coverings with flat slats that run parallel to the floor. The slats are connected by strings or cords that allow you to tilt them for light control and raise or lower the entire blind. On top, a headrail houses the operating mechanisms and supports the system.
Semi-circle windows require specialty coverings because their curved shape isn’t standard, which presents manufacturing challenges for most window treatment companies. It comes down to this: Arched tops require custom engineering solutions, like modified slats, headrails, and mounting systems. Hunter Douglas addresses those challenges with custom designs.
