Q:I have a half circle above my doorway. I don't know what to do with it but know I need to cover it. The sun comes in and the light is sometimes very intense as our front door faces west.

A:

Your half circle is actually an arch. We have some lovely treatments for that with your choice of fixed or operable arch treatments. My favorite: Duette® EasyView® arches. This specialty shape is in our Duette honeycomb shades collection and stacks at the bottom of your arch. You can raise and lower it to cover the opening or to have a completely unobstructed window when you choose. The EasyView arch is controlled with an extension pole for easy operation.

You can also put Shutters on your half circle arches. We have several Shutter collections to choose from. An exciting new collection is the Bridgeway® Specialty Shapes. They offer operable louvers and will coordinate with either of our wood, alternative wood or our shutter collections. They make a dramatic statement to any room and are sure to bring attention to your special window.
