Not every window is a standard rectangle. Arched windows, angled ceilings, skylights, and custom shapes require specialized solutions that standard window treatments can't provide. Hunter Douglas offers configurations for virtually any window geometry, and Randall's has the expertise to measure, specify, and install treatments for even the most challenging openings.
Arched windows add architectural elegance but present covering challenges. Standard shades and blinds don't fit curved openings. Hunter Douglas offers several solutions: fixed arch treatments that follow the curve perfectly, and custom configurations that cover just the rectangular portion below while leaving the arch exposed.
Duette® honeycomb shades and Silhouette® shadings both offer arch configurations. Perfectly Pleated® arches create consistent pleating that follows the curve. For true half-round and eyebrow windows, custom-manufactured treatments fit precisely to your window's exact geometry.
Cathedral ceilings, A-frame rooms, and contemporary architecture often feature angled windows that follow roof lines. These require treatments that operate on sloped tracks or are custom-shaped to fit triangular and trapezoidal openings. Standard horizontal treatments don't work here.
Hunter Douglas offers angle-top configurations for many products. Duette® shades can be made with angled tops that follow your window's slope. Shutters can be custom-built for angled openings. Our consultants assess each window and recommend the best approach for your specific geometry.
Skylights bring beautiful natural light but can create heat gain, glare, and privacy issues. Treating overhead windows requires products designed for horizontal or angled overhead installation with mechanisms that operate against gravity. Hunter Douglas offers several skylight-specific solutions.
Duette® honeycomb shades with Skyrise® configuration operate in overhead applications with tension systems that hold fabric taut. For hard-to-reach skylights, motorization is nearly essential—PowerView® automation lets you control overhead shades from your phone or voice assistant without climbing ladders.
Beyond arches, angles, and skylights, Hunter Douglas addresses many specialty situations. Bay and bow windows benefit from coordinated treatments across multiple angled panes. Floor-to-ceiling windows may require extra-long drops or seamless configurations. Corner windows need treatments that meet properly at angles.
Circle-top windows, octagons, hexagons, and truly custom shapes can often be addressed with fixed treatments or strategic covering approaches. Our consultants have seen nearly every window configuration Ottawa homes present—bring us your challenges and we'll find solutions.
