Arch Specialists · Built to the Curve
Arch-top & custom-shaped shutters, built to the curve.
Arches are our specialty — eyebrow, full, sunburst, multi-panel, center-open. Plus the rest of the tricky shapes: angles, sliding-door walls, French doors, café windows. All built to the exact opening in our own Monroe, NC factory.
Arches, angles, sliders and French doors, built to the exact opening.

Coastal homes don't come in tidy rectangles. Transom arches over the front door, the big sliding-glass wall facing the water, the half-circle window in a Calabash great room, the angled rake on an A-frame at the channel. Those are the windows that usually end up with a blind.
We build shutters for them. Every specialty shape is made to the exact geometry of your opening in the same Monroe, NC factory our family has run since 1993 — same furniture-grade basswood, same triple-coated finish, same louver, tilt, mount and hinge options as our standard plantation shutters. Built for the beach. Made to last as long as the house does.
Before & After
The round window over the tub, solved.
A bare round window is beautiful — until you want a bath without the whole neighborhood. We built a custom round shutter to the exact circle, finished in black to match the frame.
Arch-Top Shutters — Our Specialty
The curve over your door is not a problem. It's the whole point.
Eyebrow, full, sunburst, multi-panel, center-open — every arch is templated on site and built to its true radius in our Monroe, NC factory. Never a square shutter crammed under a curve.
Built by hand, in our own factory.
Every shaped shutter — round, arched, angled — is templated at your window by Chad, then cut and finished by hand at our Monroe, NC workshop, the same family factory running since 1993. A guy at a bench under a Carolina flag, building your shutter to fit the opening.
And every other shape the coast throws at you —
Doors & Sidelites
Working around handles, hinges, and that skinny window by the door.
Door shutters are built with clean cutouts around lever handles so they still operate, and sidelite panels frame the narrow windows flanking your entry.
- Doors with lever-handle cutouts
- French & arch-top doors
- Half doors
- Sidelites (3" and 4" louver, split tilt available)
Sliding & Bypass Track
For the slider wall facing the water.
Panels hang from an overhead track and glide past each other — the cleanest way to shutter a wide sliding-glass-door opening without losing the door.
- 2, 4 or 6 panels
- Overhead track — no floor channel to trip on
- Ideal for newer Calabash & Sunset Beach builds
Café Shutters
Privacy on the bottom, daylight up top.
Half-hung shutters cover only the lower window. Keep the street or the neighbors out of your kitchen and bath while the morning light still pours in over the top.
- ½ or ¾ height
- Any louver size & tilt option
- Kitchen, bath, and street-facing favorite
Bifold Shutters
Fold them flat and take the whole view back.
Hinged panels fold against the sides of the window for the most unobstructed view of any shutter — then close back over the opening when you want them.
- 2-panel — LL or RR
- 3-panel — LRR or LLR
- Best for picture windows you like fully open
How We Do It
Measured by hand. Built to the shape. Installed by us.
Templated, not guessed
For arches and angles, Chad templates the true curve on site — no "close enough." That template goes to the factory.
Built to the opening
Cut and finished to your exact geometry in our Monroe, NC workshop. 3–4 weeks; specialty shapes sometimes a touch longer.
Installed by Matt & Carter
Our own crew fits and adjusts every panel.
