Wood Plantation Shutters

Wood plantation shutters can be made from hardwood and softwood materials, depending on the desired characteristics of the shutters.

Many high-quality plantation shutters are made from hardwood, known for their durability and natural beauty. Hardwood for shutters includes basswood, oak, maple, cherry, and poplar. Hardwood shutters are often preferred for their strength and resistance to warping or cracking.

While less common, some plantation shutters can be made from softwood materials. Softwood shutters are typically crafted from pine, cedar, or spruce. Softwood shutters may be more affordable than hardwood options but might be less resistant to wear and tear over time.

Wood Type

Different types of wood offer varying characteristics in terms of durability, grain pattern, and color. Select a wood type that suits your preferences, budget, and desired level of durability.

Evaluate the finishing options available for the wood shutters. Decide whether a natural wood finish, painted shutters, or stained shutters to match your interior décor.

Price and Budget

Keep in mind that higher-quality materials and customization options may increase the cost. Consider the value you're getting for the price and choose accordingly.

Product Warranty

Inquire about the warranty provided for the wood shutters. A reliable warranty and responsive customer support can provide peace of mind in case of any issues or concerns.
