Timber Shutters

Winning investment in your home.

If you're looking for new indoor timber shutters, a great option to consider is stylish and resilient basswood. Basswood, otherwise known as linden wood, is a type of hardwood that comes from the tilia family of trees and is popular for its lightweight and durable properties, in addition to its attractive appearance.

Basswood plantation shutters are increasing in popularity in Australian homes due to the hard-wearing nature of the wood. If you've always wanted natural wood shutters but have feared that they will warp or damage easily, these are the shutters for you. Basswood is not a porous wood, meaning the wood is not easily affected by heat or water. Of course, no wood is completely resistant to prolonged moisture exposure, so basswood indoor shutters should only be installed in bathrooms or kitchens if they are well-ventilated.

As previously mentioned, basswood also has an attractive, fine texture, resulting in a uniform, smooth finish that adds to the beauty of these modern shutters. Another benefit of basswood is that this type of timber is also less likely to bleed or produce excess resin, resulting in top quality wood that can be customised to match your decor. Here at Half Price Blinds, we offer basswood timber shutters in a variety of white and cream shades.
