A Note on Quality

Your home deserves the elegance of timeless and durable Estate Millwork premium quality exterior wood shutters. Our solid wood shutters are available in a wide variety of styles and materials, and will increase the distinction and charm of any home which they adorn. Built from only the top grades of clear hardwoods harvested from sustainable forests, then carefully dried and stored by us, Estate Millwork controls quality every step of the way -- from tree to finished product.

Wood Shutter Construction

The process of creating our durable and distinctive wood shutters begins with the hand selection of rough stock. We start with the top grades of hardwood (FAS, 2FAS and CLEAR) and hand select each board. Our use of hardwoods distinguishes us from other manufactures who use softwood such as Western Red Cedar, Incense Cedar or Pine. By hand selecting each board, we are able to minimize waste, maximize quality and provide our customers with extremely durable, solid wood shutters that will outlast other shutters, whether vinyl or lower grade wood shutters. We even manufacture in exotic hardwoods such as Mahogany, Ipe and Teak.

Our high quality custom wood shutters are milled by hand, to your specifications.

Estate Millwork's exterior wood shutters are all custom built to your specifications. We use 18th century wood shutter joinery methods in a state of the art mill. Our solid wood exterior shutters can be fabricated with operable louvers or fixed louvers in a variety of configurations and species of wood including poplar, cherry, maple, cedar, mahogany, oak, and teak. A combination of modern automation and traditional craftsmanship allow us to produce the highest quality interior and exterior wooden shutters on the market while still offering competitive pricing.

Custom Shutters with Old World Craftsmanship...

Once the lumber has been selected for your custom shutters, it is processed in-house by our expert woodworkers. The rough lumber is transformed into finished dimensional lumber using computer software to maximize yield and quality. The dimensional lumber is then machined by precision CNC equipment (much of it designed by Estate Millwork employees) which allows us to economically produce true mortise and tenon joinery. The parts are then handed over to our talented craftsmen for final assembly. Each wood shutter is then machine sanded, hand sanded, and optionally primed, painted or stained.
