How Long Will Shutters Last on Sacramento Homes?

Let’s talk shutter durability. The more durable your window treatments are, the less frequently you’re likely to change them. That’s why we make long-lasting products of high quality that aren’t easily damaged by Sacramento’s weather.

Plantation shutters are significantly more durable than blinds because there are no cords to wear out, no wands to snap off, and no mechanisms to break. A well-constructed shutter in Sacramento that is properly maintained will last you 50 years or more. A well-built blind that is properly maintained will last 3 - 5 years before cords start to wear out and colors start to fade.

A low-quality, off-the-shelf blind will last only a few years before it utterly deteriorates. The cheaper materials and paint finishes used in blinds will wear down in the sun over time, becoming brittle and yellow. Fabric shades wear out with prolonged UV and UL exposure, and the fabric becomes brittle and yellow.

Shutters are unrivaled when it comes to the durability and longevity of window treatments. In fact, our Polywood® shutter is the only shutter with UV inhibitors in the material and the paint, protecting it from damaging sun rays. We bake on a proprietary paint finish at temperatures hotter than it might reach in Sacramento. That’s why Polywood is more durable than any other shutter.

And that’s why, when it comes to durability, Polywood shutters are your best choice. We’re so certain they’ll last you a lifetime, we back up our talk with a Lifetime warranty!
