Why You'll Love the American Wood Core Full Height Shutter
Designed For Year-Round Comfort
American Wood Core shutters are designed to help create a more comfortable home throughout the year. By providing an additional layer of insulation at the window, they help keep rooms cooler in summer and warmer in winter, while adding timeless shutter style to your home.
Energy Efficiency Built In
At the heart of every American Wood Core shutter is ThermaCore® insulation technology. Combined with a solid hardwood core and durable polyvinyl exterior, it creates an insulating barrier at the window that helps improve comfort in every season. The result is an internal shutter that's designed to work as beautifully as it looks.
More Than Just A Beautiful Shutter
Custom-made for your windows, American Wood Core shutters combine timeless style with practical benefits including privacy, light control and year-round comfort. Their tailored appearance can enhance curb appeal while creating a lasting feature you'll enjoy for years to come.
Bright, Airy And Full Of Character
Covering the lower portion of the window, Café shutters provide privacy where you need it most while allowing natural light to flood in above. Their distinctive design creates a bright, welcoming feel and makes them particularly popular in kitchens, dining rooms and street-facing spaces.
DIY-Friendly Installation
Your plantation shutters arrive ready to install with all mounting hardware included. Easy-to-follow measuring and installation guides are available online, and for added peace of mind, you can request a free Design Check before your order goes into production.
