Shutters Material
Wood Shutters
Available in painted, wood stained and rustic stained finishes, Wood Shutters are made from the highest grade hardwood available. The extra-hard finish significantly extends the longevity and beauty of these classic window treatments.
Polymer Shutters
In addition to being extremely durable, Polymer Shutters look and feel just like Wood Shutters but are water resistant, fire retardant, and non-toxic. Available in a variety of whites and cream colored finishes, the powder coated paint finish will maintain its new appearance without cracking, peeling or yellowing. Polymer Shutters insulate more than two times greater than wood.
Shutters No Charge Options
Inside Mount
Shutters can be mounted to the inside of the window frame. Most people prefer an Inside Mount because it provides a customized, tailored look and leave decorative molding and window sills exposed.
Outside Mount
Outside Mount is when a Shutter is mounted to the wall or molding surrounding the window. Outside Mount is ideal if there is not enough mounting depth for your Shutter in the window frame. Other reasons to choose an Outside Mount include making a window appear larger or to conceal any imperfections in the window frame and eliminate light gaps.
Louver Size
Wood and Polymer Shutters are available in 3 ½” and 4 ½” sizes.
