Manufacturing - Blinds & Designs in Franklin, Tennessee

Our partner company Ole South Shutter & Blind Manufacturing Co. in Centerville, TN manufactures our Plantation Shutters and Brentwood Blind Collection. All of our shutters and wood blinds are custom crafted in a 20,000 square foot facility for each individual window in your home. With the addition of a 10,000 square foot millwork facility each shutter component is precision milled to the highest of standards. Only FAS and better kiln dried poplar goes into each shutter.

 


 

 


After milling each component, it is then cut, sanded and prepped before being assembled. During the panel assembly process all the joints are doweled using 3/8 x 2” fluted dowel pins, glued and the panel is then clamped together while fitting each louver into place.

After assembly each panel is then shaved top and bottom to ensure the panel is square. Frames are then built and shutters are pre-hinged, fitted and inspected to ensure panel meets order specifications.

After assembly, the shutters enter the finish department where each shutter is closely inspected for any defects. The entire panel is then sanded and released to prime coat where only the highest-grade under coater is applied. After the primer has dried, each panel is then hand sanded again to ensure that each and every part of the shutter is smooth and ready for painting.

All shutters are sprayed with the highest quality oil enamel paint and sent into the heated dry room for a minimum of 24 hours. After the drying process all the shutters pass through final inspection, assembly and then shipped to your home.
