What Are Your Wood Shutters Made Of?

As you shop for your plantation shutters, you will find that there are many many different manufacturers, fabricators, and brands.  Each boasts the best value for the price.  But honestly, are you going to cut into your brand new plantation shutter to see what the wood looks like underneath the paint?  No, probably not.  In fact, you might only notice that the panel feels heavier than it should, or perhaps many years down the road you might start having problems with warping or separation.  Should this happen, then good luck getting the manufacturer to make it right.

I don't say this to scare you, because most plantation shutter "players" are doing their best to be fair and build their business.  However, as is true with most things in life, a little education can go a long way in achieving the look and longevity you desire from your plantation shutters.

Based on my years of experience, I like the idea of providing wood shutters which are 100% basswood.  I prefer knowing that they are build with a combination of state-of-the art computerized equipment and old-world hand craftsmanship.  This generally provides the precision and look we are all wanting.

The nice thing about shutters which are made from 100% basswood is that they have no fillers, no sawdust, no composites, no plastic wraps, no "engineered wood" no mystery "hardwoods".  Basswood is known in the industry to provide a combination of strength and light weight and as such it has become the industry's recognized premium natural material for the manufacture of wood shutters.

Bottom line, please kindly consider basswood as a leading option when shopping for a real wood shutter.

Of course, we would love to help you with your shutter project. Contact us today for a complimentary consultation and thanks for your interest in Latreia Blinds and Shutters!
