Extensive Wood Seasoning A quality wood shutter begins with the proper drying of green lumber. O’Hair Shutters, Ltd. performs this process “in house” using open air drying and low temperature kiln drying. This two to three month, developed by O”Hair Shutters, Ltd., insures stress free, stable lumber. | |

Edge-Grain, Edge Glued The natural stability of properly dried lumber is enhanced by our exclusive edge-grain, edge-glue process. By ripping boards into strips, then strips, then rotating and gluing, homogenous strength and stability (akin to a laminated beam) is achieved. this process is key in our ability to produce the largest warranted shutter panels available. | |
