Materials

The 2 most used materials for shutters are either real wood shutters or poly-shutters. Here at Cal Coast, we design and manufacture your shutters using 100% real basswood for a variety of reasons. The primary reason for using wood is that it’s easily customizable to any size or shaped window and we’re able to customize shutters to any color or stain for your preferences. Along with this, wood shutters are known for their durability, lasting for decades without discoloration or warping.

Privacy and Light Control

These versatile window treatments give homeowners the ability to easily regulate the amount of natural light that enters the property, creating the ambiance you desire. With a simple tilt of the louvers, you can completely block out any light or fully open shutters to brighten your room. In the same way shutters provide light control, they also allow homeowners to maintain how much privacy they want. When closed, they block out any outside eyes and bring privacy to your family.
