How To Find A Durable Shutter In Baltimore
One Sunburst Shutters store in Texas was recently contacted by a previous client. The customer had their house wiped out by a tornado earlier this year, but the home’s Sunburst Polywood® plantation shutters held out.
Hopefully, your shutters won’t need to survive a tornado. But there are some things to look for when purchasing shutters in Baltimore that are durable and will look beautiful for a lifetime.
*Disclaimer: Sunburst Shutters doesn’t guarantee that their our products will withstand a tornado or other natural disasters, but this is just one example of the durability and longevity of our Polywood shutters. See our lifetime warranty.
Sturdy Material
The number one quality to look for when you want a resilient window treatment is exactly what material it’s constructed from. For wood shutters, look for ones constructed from hardwood with a reputation for being both solid and lightweight. Our Ovation® shutters use furniture grade basswood and teak, which both have these qualities.
If you’re in the market for engineered shutters, focus on a product constructed from a solid compound such as our Polywood® shutters. These shutters have more durability than composite shutters, which have an interior wrapped with poly-vinyl which is more susceptible to peeling and damage. Polywood is also resistant to fire, moisture, and termites.
Superior Construction
How a shutter is constructed is an important piece of its durability. The louvers of Polywood shutters keep their perfect amount of “give” by using tension control pins. Stainless steel staples coated in epoxy give improved strength. Polywood’s core is solid, and its joints are secured and glued to give spectacular sturdiness. Sunburst’s Ovation shutters are the only five star wood shutter in the world and are made with two varieties of joints: dowel joints and mortise and tenon joints, which allows for extra stability. We’re proud to be the sole company that offers shutters built to last a lifetime.
Sunburst Shutters makes it a priority to take the utmost consideration in the measuring, construction, and installation processes to give you picture-perfect custom shutters that fit your windows without a hitch.
Color That Keeps
Everybody wants shutters that will be just as beautiful 20 years after you buy them. A good number of composite shutters tend to lose their color over their lifetime. Our Polywood shutters are covered with a unique finish that contains UV-inhibitors to prevent discoloration. Both our Polywood and Ovation shutters are a breeze to keep spotless by easily wiping with a cloth.
Protective Warranty
Warranties are one more key factor when choosing shutters and window coverings. When selecting a high-quality shutter, you want a warranty to guarantee your investment. Our Polywood shutters are backed by a lifetime warranty against any imperfections in materials, workmanship, paint finish, or installation. Our Ovation shutters come with a warranty against any defects.
