Premium Basswood is the best timber for constructing internal plantation shutters due to its lightweight and affordability, compared to fellow hardwoods Western Red Cedar, Maple or Oak.
Our Range of Shutters
Also called Phoenixwood, Paulownia is another hardwood that is very soft and susceptible to dents and dings. Prone to splintering and chipping whilst sanding and sawing, Paulownia is extremely lightweight and lends a balsa, or toyish feel to a finished product.
Commonly used for plywood, veneer and guitar bodies, Paulownia has a coarse, uneven texture and very large pores that give the wood a striped, porous look. This means after sanding, the finish maintains a somewhat bumpy appearance. Native to China and readily found across Asia, Paulownia is an extremely fast growing tree, making it a less expensive timber.
As one of the straightest of hardwoods, Basswood has excellent dimensional stability and strength and does not warp, making it a superior timber for shutters and the preferred choice of quality manufacturers. Basswood has tight pores and a fine uniform texture with an indistinct grain. This means it can be sanded and painted or stained to a very smooth and consistent, high quality finish.
Constructed with mortise and tenon joints and guaranteed by our 25 year manufacturer’s warranty.
Choose from modern flat stiles and frames or traditional beaded profiles. The luxury satin paint finish is available in 5 modern colours and 12 stains, or you can custom colour to your specification. Shutters are available in 64mm, 89mm or 114mm louvres and can be configured as hinged or bifold hinged panels, track bifold and sliding shutters, and a variety of special shapes. Track systems include clear anodised aluminium top and bottom track with high quality hardware, and box out boards are made from the same quality basswood.
