Description
Made from weatherproof fade-resistant polypropylene (a durable type of vinyl rated for outdoor use), Mid-America vinyl shutters are built to last and covered by a 40-year transferable product warranty. And there is no better vinyl shutter companion available for half round windows than vinyl shutters equipped with a quarter round arch top.
These vinyl shutter arch tops are made to finish the job on your house, and they are available in the same colors as custom-made Mid-America vinyl shutters for a consistent color match. Once the quarter arch is applied to your custom exterior shutters, it looks like a single piece shutter installed next to your 1/2 round or elliptical window.
Please note that these quarter arches do not fit Mid-America Master Panel (MP) style vinyl shutters.

Important Measurement Information
The height of the exterior vinyl shutters you order with these arches should be 2 1/2" less than the window measurement.
To obtain the window measurement for half round windows, measure from the bottom of the window to the point where the window starts to arch, including the window trim. From this measurement, subtract 2 1/2" to determine the height of custom vinyl shutters to buy.
For example, if you measure your arched window and it is 59 1/2" from the bottom of the window trim to the point where the arch begins, the size of exterior vinyl shutters you order for these quarter round arch tops should be 57".
Remember - measure twice and order once!

Available Colors
NOTE: Please do not rely on the colors that
are displayed on the screen. To get an exact color match, we strongly recommend
ordering a
color sample before placing your
order for arch tops for custom vinyl shutters.
If you would like to paint the shutters, order color #030 Paintable. None of the other Mid-America
colored vinyl shutters are paintable and attempting to do so will void the product warranty.
Frequently Asked Questions
- How do I remove the Shutter-Loks from the vinyl shutters once they are in place?
Slide a chisel behind the shutter until it comes in contact with the Shutter-Lok. Make sure to keep the sharp edge of the chisel away from the wall. Give the chisel a sharp tap with a hammer and it will cut through the Shutter-Lok. After the shutter is removed, shear the remaining part of the Shutter-Lok flush with the surface and bore out the shank with a drill. Fill the hole with silicone to weatherproof. See our Vinyl Shutter Removal Instructions for additional information. - My exterior wall is uneven. How do I install my exterior vinyl shutters?
You can use ferrules (a short cylindrical pipe) as standoffs to keep your vinyl shutters stable. Simply paint them, trim to size, and mount them behind your exterior shutters. Do not to put wood blocks behind the vinyl exterior shutters because they will rot fairly quickly.
