Product Overview

Custom Faux Wood Shutters in San Diego, Orange County, Sacramento, Fresno

Faux wood shutters (aka composite shutters) are interior shutters constructed from synthetic polymers or PVC. Many people use the terms “faux wood,” “composite,” and “vinyl shutters” interchangeably. These plastic shutters weigh heavier than genuine wood shutters, but they are also extremely durable, which is a beautiful advantage. Just like plantation shutters, faux wood shutters case the entire window and usually swing out from a hinge to allow access to the window or to allow maximum light to come in.

FAUX WOOD SHUTTERS VS. REAL WOOD SHUTTERS

Which is better wood or faux wood shutters?

The most significant advantage of the faux wood shutter is, most notably, the price. Faux wood plantation shutters are less expensive, and the production cost is considerably less than that of custom wood shutters. This type of indoor shutter can be used in every house without considering the environmental impact on the shutter. For example, we would recommend composite wood shutters to be installed in a bathroom or laundry room with a higher moisture potential. Moisture in the air would likely warp a real wood shutter, but a faux wood shutter will stand up nicely for many, many years.

UNIQUELY SHAPED WINDOWS

Plethora of options to custom fit any size window.

Uniquely shaped windows such as circular, oval, or arched windows add an elegant touch to your home’s décor that can be appreciated for providing great views from inside and “curb appeal” from outside.

SLIDING AND FRENCH GLASS DOORS

French door shutters let you take control of natural light.

Sliding and French glass doors are very common in sunny California homes but usually come with a lack of privacy. Fear not, you can keep up with your modern and elegant decor by selecting a customized shutter for French doors and sliding glass doors.

LIGHT CONTROL & PRIVACY

Control the amount of light that enters a room and enjoy privacy when you want it.

Plantation shutters feature wider louvers that allow more light into the room are usually hinged on the outside of the window frame and swing open to allow access to the window or to allow light in. Operable slats can be adjusted for light control, airflow, or privacy concerns. They are also available in multiple tears allowing tilt control for half of the window to have the slats open while the other half remains closed, giving you even more control over light and privacy.

Your shutters will be just as beautiful as they were when first installed.

SUPERIOR ENERGY SAVINGS

Are faux shutters energy efficient? 

Both exterior and interior shutters are energy efficient treatments and can prevent heat loss in the cold winter and reduce heat gain during hot summer weather. Shutters made from solid materials such as poly are the most effective at saving on energy costs.

PET & CHILD SAFETY

No dangling cords or strings  means shutters are an excellent choice for families with pets or small children.

Some of our shutters have eliminated the tilt bar while still giving you full tilt control. In addition to shutters, we provide a variety of cordless & child-friendly treatments as well as motorized window treatments that will eliminate hazardous pull cords from your home and give you one less thing to worry about!
