Shutters

Why Composite Shutters

Composite shutters use an engineered wood or polymer core wrapped in a durable finish. They deliver the look of a painted wood shutter while removing the two things that kill wood in the desert: sun and moisture.

A composite louver will not warp on a west-facing window, will not yellow, and will not swell in a bathroom. That makes it our default recommendation for the majority of Las Vegas homes, and the reason we specify it far more often than real wood.

They are also heavier than wood, which is a genuine constraint on very wide openings — beyond a certain panel width the weight demands additional stiles that interrupt the view. We work that out at the measurement, not after the order.

Questions

Questions about composite shutters.

Are custom window treatments worth it?

For most Las Vegas homes, yes, because fit and fabric are where off-the-shelf goes wrong. Custom is made to your exact openings, including sliding doors and tall great-room glass. The fabric choice, like a solar shade's openness factor, is exactly the decision people get wrong buying online, and we make it with you window by window. And shutters are the one window treatment that reliably adds value at resale instead of wearing out.

How long do custom blinds and shades last?

A long time, if the product suits the window. What shortens it here is sun. Real wood and vinyl on west-facing windows fade and turn brittle fastest, which is why we put faux wood blinds and composite shutters where the sun hits: both hold up to direct sun without warping or cracking. A cordless shade's spring eventually wears out. Shutters last longest: on a hard west wall, a shutter still looks right in fifteen years when a fabric shade would have been replaced twice.

Which window treatments are best for Las Vegas heat?

Stop the sun before it reaches the glass if you can. Exterior solar screens turn away roughly 70–90% of the sun's heat, and they are the most economical way to treat a whole west or south wall. Inside, solar shades cut heat and glare while keeping the view, cellular shades insulate, and composite shutters won't warp or yellow in direct sun. Motorized shades can close themselves at 2pm every summer afternoon, whether or not anyone is home.

How long does it take to receive and install custom shades?

3–5 weeks for blinds and shades, 6–10 weeks for shutters, counted from the day you order. Motorized products take about a week longer. Your lead time is written on your quote, so you know before you say yes. Need privacy sooner? We put up temporary shades for free while you wait. On install day we install, walk through every window with you, clean up, and haul your old blinds away free.
