Why do I have to choose an Extrawide shutter if I require a shutter to be over 18″ in width?
As we use pre-manufactured component parts to construct the shutters, it is the width of these component parts that dictate the width of the shutters that we can build. We can cut the stile or vertical side rail to any length in ΒΌ inch increments. Currently, the only way that we can assemble a shutter wider than 18″ (450mm) is to use a vertical centre support rib or mullion that gives the shutter a bi-fold appearance. Polypropylene vinyl, whilst almost impervious to weathering, does not posses the same tensile strength as wood and therefore cannot be extended beyond a certain width. To overcome this problem we install a support rib that then allows us to join smaller components together to achieve the wider widths required. This rib also braces the louvres to eliminate the potential for them to sag. The Extrawide shutter is particularly useful if you need to cover up paint marks on brickwork that show where a previous shutter has been painted whilst on the wall.
