Specialty Bay, Corner & Bow Windows

Bay, corner and bow windows are a beautiful feature in any home that can make a typical flat wall become a picturesque architectural element. Other benefits include added square footage for seating or decoration, and allowing more natural light to enter the room. Learn more about bay, corner & bow window treatments.

French Doors

While virtually any Hunter Douglas window treatment can be used on French doors, certain window coverings are better choices for these doors. To allow easy access to handles, window cranks and levers, some, like Duette^® and NewStyle^®, even offer cut-outs. Learn more about French doors.
