{"product_id":"faux-wood-board-and-batten-exterior-shutters-polyurethane-set-of-2","title":"Faux Wood Board and Batten Exterior Shutters - Polyurethane - Set of 2","description":"\u003cp\u003eDogberry faux wood board and batten shutters bring the look of rough-sawn cedar to your exterior in a material made for low upkeep. Each shutter is molded from solid polyurethane with real wood grain cast into the surface, then finished with exterior paint in Midnight Black, Russet or Bronze. They're moisture resistant, they install in minutes with the included hardware, and you can repaint them any time with standard exterior paint. Sold in pairs, 14\" wide, in 48\", 60\" and 72\" heights.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat are faux wood shutters made of?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese shutters are cast from high-density polyurethane, the same material used for exterior architectural trim and millwork. The mold is taken from real rough-sawn boards, so the grain, saw marks and batten edges have real depth and read as wood from the curb and up close. Polyurethane doesn't absorb water and isn't affected by insects, which makes it a good fit for coastal climates, heavy shade, irrigation spray, or anywhere you'd rather not refinish on a schedule.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you love the character of real wood and don't mind a bit of seasonal care, take a look at our \u003ca href=\"\/products\/traditional\"\u003ecedar board and batten shutters\u003c\/a\u003e. Both lines share the same profile, so you can mix them on one house and match the look.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eAre these shutters painted or stained?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePainted.

Shutters a little shorter than the window read as intentional; shutters much taller than the window don't.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow do you install faux wood shutters?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll mounting hardware is included in the box. The shutters are light enough that one person can hang them without help. Hold the shutter in place beside the window trim, mark the mounting points, drill, and fasten. Most installs take under fifteen minutes per shutter on wood, vinyl or fiber cement siding. On brick or stucco you'll want masonry anchors, which aren't included.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eHow do you clean and maintain them?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRinse with a hose or wipe down with mild soap and water once or twice a year. There's nothing to seal or re-stain. If the color softens after years in direct sun, or you repaint the house and want the shutters to match, a single coat of exterior paint brings them back.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: high-density polyurethane\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStyle: board and batten, three boards with three horizontal battens\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinish: factory-applied exterior paint\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColors: Midnight Black, Russet, Bronze\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHeights: 48\", 60\", 72\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWidth: 14\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThickness: 1.5\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSold as: pair (2 shutters)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHardware: included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePaintable: yes, with exterior acrylic latex paint\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse: exterior or interior\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently asked questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo faux wood shutters look fake?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNot these. The grain is molded from actual lumber rather than printed or embossed, so it has depth you can feel. From the sidewalk they're hard to tell apart from painted cedar.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShould I choose faux wood or cedar shutters?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBoth give you the same board and batten look. Cedar is the pick if you want real wood you can stain to a custom tone and don't mind occasional refinishing. Polyurethane is the pick if you want to hang them and not think about them again, or if the spot gets a lot of moisture. Plenty of customers use cedar on the front of the house and faux wood on sides and back.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow many shutters come in an order?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTwo.

Since the shutters are paintable, a fresh coat restores them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCan I use them inside?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes. They're popular as decorative shutters flanking interior windows, as a headboard, or mounted on a wall as rustic accents.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAre they functional? Do they close over the window?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThey're decorative and mount fixed to the wall beside the window. They don't swing shut.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDo they come in custom sizes or colors?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eNo. They're offered in the three standard heights and three colors listed above. If you need a different shade, the paintable finish means you can apply any exterior paint color you like.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dogberry Collections","offers":[{"title":"Russet \/ 48\"","offer_id":67620985241732,"sku":"w-trd48rus","price":239.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Russet \/ 60\"","offer_id":67620985340036,"sku":"w-trdpu60rus","price":269.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Russet \/ 72\"","offer_id":67620985438340,"sku":"w-trdpu72rus","price":299.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Midnight Black \/ 48\"","offer_id":67620985208964,"sku":"w-trdpu48blk","price":239.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Midnight Black \/ 60\"","offer_id":67620985307268,"sku":"w-trdpu60blk","price":269.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Midnight Black \/ 72\"","offer_id":67620985405572,"sku":"w-trd72blk","price":299.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Bronze \/ 48\"","offer_id":67620985274500,"sku":"w-trd48brz","price":239.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Bronze \/ 60\"","offer_id":67620985372804,"sku":"w-trd60brz","price":269.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Bronze \/ 72\"","offer_id":67620985471108,"sku":"w-trd72brz","price":299.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/4502\/1828\/files\/russet_pair.jpg?v=1791397113","url":"https:\/\/dogberrycollections.com\/products\/faux-wood-board-and-batten-exterior-shutters-polyurethane-set-of-2","provider":"Dogberrycollections","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
