Our custom wood shutters are crafted to your specifications, allowing you to choose the wood type and finish that perfectly match your aesthetic preferences and home decor.

For economy and utility reasons, most of our customers select shutters constructed of painted bass wood. Some customers, however, prefer the look of a hardwood such as oak, cherry, or alder. If you have in mind a particular species of wood, we will try to accommodate your wishes, however, availability and cost of some species may be obstacles to consider.

Most of the shutters we build begin with a standard design and essentially the same time proven hardware, however, we will be happy to consider the pros and cons of any modifications you may have in mind.

It’s not unusual to find differences of 1/8” to ¼” in measurements taken from top to bottom or side to side. We prefer to take measurements ourselves when you contact us for an estimate. Before final assembly and installation of the shutters, we will fit the frames to each window to insure a proper fit.

Depending upon your experience and talent with a screwdriver, you may very well be capable of installing the shutters yourself, but why would you want to if installation is included in the cost of the shutters? Occasionally, we find minor adjustments to the shutters need to be made while performing the installation and we can make those adjustments as necessary.
