All Normandy® hardwoods are prescription wood conditioned for extraordinary durability and exhibit one of the best strength to weight ratios among all wood type shutters.
Quality in Every Detail
The patented wood drying techniques, Prescription Wood Conditioning®, are designed to reduce shrinking and swelling of each Normandy® shutter. Our wood conditioning specialists determine the humidity conditions of each customer’s home location. The wood is dried to conditions emulating those of the final location. Drying to the proper environmental conditions ensures that shutters will close tightly, without gaps, and the result is a more solid and beautiful shutter for years to come.
Any shape. Any size. Any color.
Windows come in all shapes and sizes. Normandy® offers a wide range of customization options to fit your personal style. Whether it is a triangle, round or sunburst, we haven’t met a window that we can’t cover. With a multitude of standard colors and a custom color option to match your wall color or furniture, your design possibilities are endless.
Engineered Stiles for Stability
A well-crafted shutter closes solidly, does not have unsightly gaps, and stays that way year in and year out. To accomplish this, each part of the shutter must be stable and can resist twisting and bowing. With the unique engineered stiles, multiple layers of wood are bonded together with pressure, heat, and polymer. The proprietary process imparts an intense level of stability and structural integrity to the cores and results in a robust support system for your shutters.
InvisibleTilt®
InvisibleTilt®, the embedded gear and pinion system, enables seamless louver tilting without a tilt rod for a more streamlined and modern appearance. Traditional “hidden tilt” systems hide a bar in the back of the panel, fastened by screws that loosen over time. This results in the panels closing unevenly and allowing light to creep in, plus wear and tear from loose screws scraping against your frame.
Proudly Green
Among the most eco-friendly materials available, wood composite production involves very little waste, with up to 95% of every tree utilized. Made from the wood of rapid-growth trees, Woodlore® shutters enable tree replenishment at an extremely accelerated rate. Completely biodegradable, wood has much less of an environmental impact than other building materials.
