Why Homeowners Choose Custom Shutters
Shutters are one of the few window treatments built to fit a single, exact opening — not a standard size. That precision is where most of their appeal comes from.
Precise, Custom Fit
Every panel is built from measurements of your actual windows — including arches, angles, and other non-standard shapes.
Real Privacy Control
Solid panels give you full coverage when you want it, with no gaps at the edges the way some off-the-shelf treatments have.
Adjustable Light Control
Louvers tilt to any angle, so you can bring in as much or as little daylight as you want without leaving a window fully exposed or fully closed.
Architectural Appearance
Shutters read as part of the window itself rather than something hung in front of it — a look many homeowners prefer for main living spaces.
Durability
Built from solid materials rather than fabric, shutters are designed to hold up to years of daily use.
Comfort Potential
A solid, well-fitted panel can help reduce drafts and outside noise at the window — your consultant can speak to what's realistic for your specific windows.
Shutter Options We Offer
We offer Heritance® shutters in genuine hardwood, vinyl, and composite materials, with louver sizes from 2½" to 4½" and a wide range of paint and stain finishes. The right choice usually comes down to the room and what matters most to you:
Appearance
Hardwood gives the most traditional, high-end look. Composite and vinyl can be finished to closely resemble painted wood.
Moisture & Humidity
Composite and vinyl resist warping and moisture damage, making them a practical fit for kitchens, bathrooms, and laundry rooms.
Budget & Application
Material and louver size both affect cost. Your consultant can help you balance appearance, durability, and budget for each room during your estimate.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much do custom shutters cost?
Cost depends on the number and size of your windows, the material you choose (vinyl, composite, or hardwood), and finish options. Because every job is different, we don't publish flat pricing — a free in-home consultation gets you an exact, no-obligation estimate for your specific windows.
Are shutters custom made for each window?
Yes. Every panel is built to order from the exact measurements taken in your home — nothing is pre-sized or off-the-shelf.
What shutter material should I choose?
It depends on the room and your priorities. Hardwood offers a traditional, high-end look; vinyl and composite materials resist moisture and humidity, which makes them a practical choice for kitchens and bathrooms. Your consultant can walk through the tradeoffs for your specific rooms.
Can shutters fit unusual window shapes?
Yes — arched, angled, and other specialty-shaped windows can be fitted with custom shutters. Bring up any unusual openings during your consultation so they can be measured and accounted for.
How long does the process take?
Timelines depend on material, finish, and current order volume, so we won't quote a number here — your consultant will give you a specific timeline for your order during your estimate.
Do you measure windows?
Yes. A design specialist measures every window in person as part of your free in-home consultation, so your shutters are built to fit precisely.
Do you install shutters?
Yes. Our installation team handles setup once your custom shutters are fabricated.
What areas do you serve?
We serve homeowners throughout Los Angeles County, Orange County, Riverside County, and San Bernardino County.
Do you offer other window treatments?
Yes. Alongside shutters, Sash & Shade offers shades, blinds, drapery, and motorization, plus replacement windows and doors as an additional service.
