Furthermore, custom shutters constructed of solid wood offer practical, energy-efficiency that is unparalleled by any other material.

Custom Wood Shutters Can Reduce Your Bills

Proven as a natural regulator of hot and cold temperatures, custom wood shutters (http://www.estatemillwork.com/custom-wood-shutters.html) can help to lower your monthly heating and cooling costs. Estate Millwork uses age-old proven techniques and modern automation to create durable custom shutters that are less likely to crack, become susceptible to water leaks, and in some cases, are even resistant to termites.

Practicality is also one of the factors to consider when starting the process of creating your own custom shutters. Some custom exterior shutters (http://www.estatemillwork.com/exterior-shutters.html) have features that enable them to be more beneficial depending on their specific geographical location and the unique weather patterns they may have to face. Some customizations, such as shutter horns (top- or bottom-panel extensions) for example, can even help further the weatherproofing features that exterior wood shutters provide.
