Shutter BoysUpdated
The short version: Louver Shop and Shutter Boys both make painted hardwood shutters, poplar among them. Louver Shop measures and installs through local dealers; we make shutters to your measurements and you fit them. It comes down to how you want to buy.
What Louver Shop says
- Heritage shutters are “Poplar or basswood”, from “finest American hardwoods”, with 2½, 3½ or 4½ in louvers[2].
- It offers “Free Measure, Free Design Consultation & Free Installation”[1], through franchise dealers in 25 states, and says its shutters are made in Memphis, Tennessee[4].
- Its warranty covers defects for life for the original purchaser, with painted Heritage finishes guaranteed for life; it’s void if a certified Louver Shop representative didn’t install the shutters[3].
