Each shutter is constructed using kiln-dried hardwood, composite wood, or moisture-resistant faux wood depending on performance needs. The build process involves precision milling, reinforced stile and rail construction, and tension-balanced louvers. Solid wood provides rich texture and strength, while engineered wood resists warping in high humidity. Faux options are durable and lightweight. Panels are inspected for grain consistency, hardware fit, and stability. This multi-step process ensures your shutters remain structurally sound and visually consistent over years of daily use.
We offer hardwoods such as red grandis, cedar, and basswood each selected for grain uniformity, weight, and compatibility with your chosen finish.
Wood shutters work across styles whether as minimalist interior panels or traditional outdoor accents. Their adaptability allows them to complement glass doors, bay windows, and even curved openings. Options for divider rails, hidden tilt bars, and various louver sizes allow each design to be customized for light, airflow, and visual clarity. Exterior units may be fixed or operable, while interior panels can include top-down control or bi-fold motion. Their flexibility makes them a reliable choice for nearly any residential or architectural setting.
Wood shutters can be designed to suit rectangular, circular, or arched frames with precision. Divider rails allow partial opening for light or privacy, while bi-fold and bypass configurations accommodate large spans. Panels are cut using advanced templating for bay and corner window accuracy. French door applications feature cutouts for handles, and panels can be fixed or hinged depending on use. Each shutter layout is engineered for proper louver clearance, frame depth, and long-term performance even in asymmetrical or specialty window openings.
Panel construction can include raised, flat, or louvered sections depending on your design needs. Louver size affects both aesthetics and functionality larger louvers offer broader views, while smaller ones enhance privacy. Hidden or offset tilt rods allow for smooth, discreet adjustments. For exterior shutters, stainless steel or powder-coated hardware ensures weather resistance. Interior panels use magnetic catches, tension pins, and soft-close hinges for ease of use. All components are chosen based on window type, panel width, and room layout.
We begin by discussing your goals and evaluating the window structure, room use, and finish preferences to guide design.
Every window is measured with precision tools, accounting for depth, casing, hardware clearance, and light gap preferences.
Shutters are milled, assembled, and finished using your chosen species and design details, ensuring clean joints and balanced.
Panels are mounted level, with louvers tested for smooth movement. Hardware is secured and adjusted for long-term stability.
