Elizabeth Shutters, Inc. Information

Elizabeth Shutters knows that when it comes to quality, the difference is in the details. Our custom wood shutters are designed, made and installed with that fact in mind. That attention to detail has definitely made a difference, earning our company top ratings, accolades and reviews from organizations that include the Better Business Bureau, the Los Angeles Times, Angie's List, Yahoo Local and Yelp, among others. And, Elizabeth Shutters works hard to keep prices low, so our quality products and service come at very competitive prices. Elizabeth Shutters are crafted of whole North American basswood. There are no finger-jointed, fiber-boarded, glued, laminated, pressed wood-like materials, or other imitation substances used here. We are the only California shutter manufacturer to use solid basswood in both painted and ready to stain shutters. Basswood is light and strong, with a tight, uniform grain and consistent color. These qualities make it versatile, durable, moisture resistant and attractive—undeniably the best domestic hardwood for the job. Lacquers and acrylics are the best paints when it comes to shutters, superior in durability, UV resistance and water resistance. Lacquers and acrylics provide a richer, smoother finish than water based paints, and they won't yellow or fade. In fact, lacquers and acrylics were the industry standard until 2001, when California shutters manufacturers switched to water based paints due to changes in environmental regulations. However, Elizabeth Shutters, unwilling to compromise quality, took a different approach, investing more than $500,000 in pollution control equipment—the only shutter company to make that investment. With the installation of that equipment, our paint emissions are reduced by 98.7 percent. This enables us to continue to provide our customers the very best paint finish while emitting less pollution than the use of lesser, water based paints would.
