Wood Window Shutters Add Instant Curb Appeal, Have Green Benefits

Pittsburgh, PA ( Pressreleasecollection ) February 9, 2010 - Updating shutters is a way to instantly improve the curb appeal of your home and increase its value. Wood exterior shutters also give you privacy, allowing you to block out peeks from passerby. In addition, wooden shutters keep out the weather, whether it be sun or rain.

Estate Millwork, a wooden shutter manufacturing company located in Southwestern Pennsylvania, offers a wide selection of customized wood window shutters to suit your home's style.

If your home is in a historic style such as Craftsman, Colonial, or Bungalow, Estate Millwork’s master craftsmen can create detailed replicas of wood window shutters from many historical periods. If your windows are of unusual size or shape, Estate Millwork is the place to go.

On our Web site, you'll find Custom Online Design Tools that let you design custom shutters and receive pricing estimates for made-to-order wooden shutters.

Estate Millwork now offers multiple variations on wood exterior shutter classics, including panel shutters, louvered shutters, and its famous top-hinged Bahama shutters (http://www.estatemillwork.com/bahama-shutters.html).

If you prefer ornate wood shutters, our expert craftspeople can add touches like custom mouldings or shutter horns. Further customization options for plantation wooden shutters include tailor-made rails and stiles, mouse holes, extra-wide or narrow louvers, or decorative faux lift rods.

Using hardwoods for our wood window shutters, including oak, maple, cherry, and exotics like mahogany and teak, is one way Estate Millwork stands out from the competition.

Starting with long cuts of top-grade hardwood, we select each board by hand for our wood exterior shutters. Company craftsmen cut shutter pieces carefully to minimize waste and to maximize product durability.

We use classic mortise-and-tenon joinery construction to assemble each pair of wood exterior shutters, and all shutters are personally inspected before they leave the our factory.

This process minimizes waste, improves quality, and provides our customers with durable, solid wooden shutters that outlast vinyl or low-grade veneer exterior shutters.

The utility-grade shutters you'll find at big-box stores don't compare to the custom wood shutters produced by Estate Millwork.

We make our exterior shutters from all-natural wood rather than veneers, plastic compounds, or any other artificial materials. Because they’re prone to splintering, warping, and pitting, faux wooden shutters only last a few seasons.

Our high-quality wood window shutters, built to last decades, are the better deal in the long run.

All of our wooden shutters are crafted from sustainable-harvest timber. The plant is green, too: we at Estate Millwork pride ourselvse on enforcing strict temperature controls and recycling requirements in the shutter-making plant. In this way, the company keeps manufacturing costs -- and prices -- down.
