At Arizona Specialty, we work with every rating of material to create beautiful finished projects. Home designers can often overlook options that are considered to be “cheap”. We understand that the quality of a finished product isn’t determined by only one set of standards. The only thing that makes a fixture cheap is the quality of skill used to create and install it.
Composite shutters have a lot to offer even if you can afford the most popularly desired materials. In some cases, these faux wood shutters are a better option than natural wood.
Achieving traditional plantation shutter designs can start to get expensive with real wood. In fact, every wood-heavy design eventually adds up to a decent cost. That doesn’t mean that you have to sacrifice the wood aesthetic you want in your home. Composite shutters offer the same visual appeal as natural wood shutters at a more accessible price range.
Composite shutters are made from an engineered combination of wood and PVC or MDF. To the untrained observer, they look and feel the same as wood. However, they aren’t as strong as their natural wood counterparts or as dense.
Arizona Specialty can bring your vision of traditional wood accent treatments to your home without breaking the budget. Our craftsmen can repaint and finish composite shutters to match your desired aesthetic when installed.
Due to the hybrid nature of composite shutters, they don’t absorb moisture. Moisture is the number one cause of long-term damage in natural wood constructions. Too much exposure to moisture can cause real wood to rot and grow mold as well as foster pests that damage the wood’s structural integrity. With composite shutters, concerns about mold and rot damage are non-existent.
The exterior of composite shutters is usually made of PVC or MDF. These materials have a long life and incredible durability against weathering. This can cause composite shutters to have twice as long a life span as real wood shutters.
With Arizona Specialty’s expertise and professional installation services, you can have a rich, luxurious, and elegant natural wood aesthetic with less need for maintenance and a smaller impact on your wallet.
Being crafted with easily made and workable materials gives composite shutters an edge in design. More often than not, they are shaped to mimic traditional styles associated with wood shutters. However, it can be used more creatively to make unique shapes and patterns.
Here is a list of a few different composite shutter styles:
