Classic Dan-Dee Wood Shutters by O'Hair

Strength and Beauty... that Lasts

Real Wood... Real Quality
Responsibility: O'Hair Shutters are made from the finest grades of White Poplar (Cottonwood), a Northern American hardwood. Our lumber is harvested on family owned land, from landowners who demand sustainable forestry and responsible conservation, leaving a proud legacy for future generations.

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 process, 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 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.

Natural Strength
The higher strength-to-weight ratio of real wood combined with our unique processes, makes O'Hair Shutters the strongest shutter panels on the market today.

Natural Beauty
Regardless of which surface you choose, the natural beauty of Real Wood comes through.

Intelligent Design ... It's in every shutter we build.

Mortise and Tenon Joinery
Our mortise and tenon joint design allows for maximum glue surface area. Wet-to-wet glue application plus special "draw-tight" assembly screws result in optimal intimate contact and excellent joint strength.

Monolithic Louver Tenons
Louvers pivot on tenons that are formed from the louver profile itself. The resulting monolithic grain structure of each tenon provides the strongest pivot design in the industry.

Adjustable Stabilouver
The louver at the middle of each tilt rod receives brass bushings for present tension. In addition, screws are applied to retain the stiles and to allow adjustment of tilting action. Louvers are thus sure to hold any desired tilt position.

Continuous Tilt Rod Linkage
A common problem never seen in an O'Hair Shutter is detached louvers due to tilt rod staples that pulled out. Instead, a continuous aluminum linkage thoroughly glued into the back of the tilt rod provides extraordinary strength. The connecting louver staples made of #304 stainless are deep set for decades of trouble free service.
