Norman Shutters

Green Solution

Woodlore® is made from wood composite MDF utilizing 95% of the tree. Our process creates significantly less waste, and produces one of most eco-friendly materials around.

Enhanced Durability

Woodlore®'s patented polypropylene coating creates a durable and robust surface that resists cracking or chipping. Polypropylene is widely used in automobile exteriors, appliances and helmets.

NOT JUST ANY SHUTTERS, THEY ARE CUSTOM,
HAND-CRAFTED FURNITURE FOR YOUR WINDOWS

​

 1. REINFORCED ENGINEERED STILES
Multiple layers of wood are bonded together. The proprietary process strengths the stile core while providing a lifetime of durability and stability.
 

 2. PRESCRIPTION WOOD CONDITIONING®
The wood shutter's moisture level is customized to its final destination. The unique drying process helps reduce post-installation shrinking and swelling.
 

 3. MORTISE AND TENON JOINERY
Found in heirloom furniture, our mortise and tenon joints will help your shutters withstand decades of shear stress and racking forces.
 

 4. QUARTER SAWN LOUVERS
Not the cheap flat-sawn louvers in wood shutters, quarter sawn louvers have a tighter grain – for more resistance to cupping, twisting and warping.
 

 5. RECESSED MAGNETS
Embedded magnets won't protrude, which can cause light leakage. For a more dependable system with tighter closure, hidden from view.
 

 6. INVISIBLETILT™
Tilts louvers like magic with no tilt rod at all. The gear driven system is built into each stile, and tilts louvers flawlessly with precision tight control.
 

 7. SUPERIOR FINISHING
Includes multiple hand sanding and finishing sequences for a richer and lustrous finish. In woodlore®, the polypropylene coating – similar to the surface material in appliances and helmets – provides extra durability and is easy to clean.
 

 8. DECORATIVE ACCESSORIES to meet every need, including panel pulls, panel locks and hinges in various finishes.
 

 9. FSC CERTIFIED WOOD
Sustainably sourced materials from our forests to your windows
 

10. LIMITED LIFETIME WARRANTY
Dependable and high quality, Norman® window furnishings are covered by the industry's #1 warranty.
