About Estate Millwork Oak Shutters
Estate Millwork’s collection of oak exterior wood shutters is the finest around. Our green harvesting techniques and durable, old-world craftsmanship put our wooden shutters at the top of their class.
No wood is wasted when we make your oak shutters. If we can’t use the wood in the shutters, we’ll use it to make doors or cabinets, or burn it to heat our plant.
Unlike competitors, our company uses only the finest genuine hardwood to craft our wooden shutter sets. Our handsome oak shutters contain no particle board or compound fillers, so they’re better suited to withstand all kinds of weather.
Why choose oak exterior shutter sets?
Oak wood comes in two varieties: red and white.
White oak: This type of wood is very strong without being stiff. White oak shutters show excellent water resistance, stain well, and have smooth, luminous surfaces. White oak can be steam bent into special shapes if harvested correctly.
Red oak: This wood is more common than white oak. Though red oak does not show the water-resistant properties of white oak, and has a rougher finish, it can be easier to carve and to work with. Many people prefer red oak’s wood grain pattern and natural salmon-pink color, too.
Oak is graded as a hardwood, with a high level of cellular density. Oak is a tough wood, especially suited for withstanding rough weather, so it’s a natural fit for our exterior shutters.
