OWNER, KENT WILDE,
thanks you for taking
the time to view his "Craft."
Custom Plantation Shutters
have been around for
years, many mass produced.
Here at The Shutter Source,
we build our shutters by hand,
with only the finest material
and craftsmanship.
The production process is
designed to produce an
exceptional product. This is
the secret to our success.
OUR PROCESS, for all
painted shutters begins with
"FAS" Grade Poplar wood.
( finest grade available)
Specialty woods for stain are:
Oak, Maple, Cherry, Birch,
Walnut, Pine, Mahogany or
any Hard Wood of your choice.

OUR FRAMES are hand cut
and built with the same
species of wood throughout
the entire panel, to ensure
consistency between the
Shutter Louvers and the frame.

WE USE A "L & Z" FRAME,
that incorporates a light stop
which gives the consumer
the ultimate control
to regulate the light
passage into each room.


( The "Z" frame is perfect for
shallow windows.)

OUR JOINTS are cut with
craftsman precision to yield
the tightest fit.
This ensures frame
stability adding endurance
for
generations to come.

OUR PLATE joints
use 2 #20 biscuits in each
jointed corner. Opposed
to screws or small round dowels,
biscuits allow
more bonding area for the
highest grade Tight Bond II exterior glue,
Thus creating greater strength
and guaranteeing greater stregnth and stability.

OUR LOUVERS are hand cut
with Craftsman precision
for perfect swivel every time.
Each louver is meticulously
hand detailed providing
consistency and uniformity
to attain perfect fit.
OUR LOUVER SIZES
vary from 2 1\2", 3 1\2" & 4 1\2"
beveled blades in paint
and stain grade.
OUR SHUTTER TENSION
is set by using trim screws to
optimize shutter functionality.
Two tension screws are
used on all shutters over 48".
OUR SHUTTER CONSTRUCTION
is the litmus test of our accuracy.
The slightest imperfection
will not be tolerated.
OUR PREP PROCESS is extremely
important. We all know the
preparation before the
paint guarantees a quality finish.
Again, by hand, each shutter is sanded
before and after the primer coat.
This produces the
smoothest, glossiest furniture
quality finish.
OUR STAIN & PAINT can be
matched exactly to your
home's trim. We will match
anything with a furniture
quality finish.
ONE LOUVER AT A TIME,
our attention to detail, gives
you only the finest quality available.
If it doesn't look great here,
it won't look great in your home.
OUR FINISHED PRODUCT
is perfect, to your personal specifications.

OUR FURNITURE GRADE FINISH
will complete your home with
beauty and elegance, adding
ambiance to any season at any time.
OUR CRAFTSMEN
can create and cover any window
with beauty, precision and quality.

A true investment in your home.

OUR GUARANTEE.
"I'm so sure you will be completely
satisfied with our work and
service I put my name on every job, with
my family's future behind it.
I give a limited lifetime warranty
on every shutter."

Sincerely
Kent, Sandra & Michaela Wilde
