Shutters FAQ
How can you manufacture shutters so quickly?
Two reasons:
Decades of experience designing plantation shutters. Large openings and complex shapes are not a problem for us.

That’s why we can install your shutters in 4 weeks from the time your order is accepted. We handle every aspect of your order in-house.
Why do you use basswood for all your shutters? What's the difference?
Basswood is superior in every way to pine and composite materials.
It is much lighter, which prevents warping and makes shutter installation easier.
It will not split, crack, bleed sap, or delaminate.
Basswood’s fine wood grain makes for better looking shutters.
