These are the structural components located at the top and bottom of a shutter panel. Their height varies from 2" to 4-1/2", depending on the panel's height and louver size. Our rails come in two sizes: 4-1/2” x ¾” (4.5RP) or 5-1/2” x ¾” (5.5RP), both primed.
The vertical structural parts on the right and left sides of a shutter panel. They contain the nylon bushing around which the louvers rotate. Our stiles measure 2" x 1-1/16”. We offer flat stiles pre-drilled for 3" or 4" centers (SFAP-D3 or D4) and rabbeted pre-drilled stiles (SRAP-D3 or D4), both primed.
These rails enhance panel strength and enable independent operation of louvers above and below the divider rail. An excellent feature of the divider rail is the ability to close the lower louvers for privacy while keeping the upper louvers open for light and ventilation control. Our divider rails are available in two sizes: 3” x ¾” (3MDRP) or 4” x ¾” (4MDRP), both primed.
Louvers rotate on pins within bushings and are connected to a tilt rod that synchronizes louver movement for light, privacy, and ventilation control. Our louvers come in two sizes: 3-1/2” x 7/16” (L3P) and 4-1/2” x 7/26” (L4P), both primed.
This component regulates the rotation of louvers in a coordinated manner for light, privacy, and ventilation control. Our tilt rod is mounted discreetly on the rear (hidden) edge of the louver, specifically on the hinge side (RCR-3L and RCR-4L).
Included in our custom wood shutters, the tension system allows for adjustment of louver tension, ensuring consistent movement.
Our products are meticulously packaged using a minimum of three layers of 32 ECT corrugated cardboard for maximum protection during shipping. Rest assured, your items will arrive undamaged and ready for immediate use. Our packaging and shipping standards exceed industry norms, ensuring the safest delivery possible.

I LOVE Custom Shutters Guru. Errol is the best in the business. I highly recommend his services. Errol went above and beyond to help me with my order. He is very responsive and knows everything about shutters. Even when I had one too many questions he was responsive and helpful. My order shipped within a week and the product I received is in perfect condition. I was able to replace my broken louvers today and thanks to Errol my house looks like a home again! I cannot say THANK YOU enough - I am sure my neighbors want to thank you too because my shutters were looking a bit crazy with the missing louvers. THANK YOU again for everything!

Shutter louver jig. Ordered on line, I was notified and kept informed of each step in the process all the way to delivery. Delivered quickly and in good shape. I am building my own plantation shutters and was searching for a jig for drilling the louvers.
CustomShutters.guru's 3 1/2" jig is excellent! This jig greatly reduces the time and improves the accuracy for drilling each louver for the pins. Plus it includes the hole and bit to drill the holes to attach the hidden control arm to each louver. Perfect for my project! Another great feature is it gives you the ability to make fine adjustments so it can be dialed in to drill your louvers perfectly.
Great product and a great company to work with.

Shutter parts and components much less expensive than through a woodworking store like Rockler. They also have fantastic customer service. I had some damaged parts in my order and they replaced them without question. Five stars, I'll be ordering the rest of my project parts from them.

If you are interested in a DIY plantation shutter project and you're unsure of the design, materials and techniques required, try this company. I have received and built three shutters systems. Each time I have been very pleased with the materials, guidance and customer service. Their sales rep., Errol, is always available, quick to respond and great at explaining the basics and details. I plan to build more shutters and my choice will be CustomShuttersGuru,
Again Thanks,
