Hear from Our Customers
You’re tired of watching your energy bills climb every summer while your current window treatments do nothing to help. Our custom plantation shutters create a barrier against Texas heat that can cut your cooling costs significantly.
But the real payoff comes when you sell. When your home is appraised for resale, plantation shutters add to its estimated market value. You get to appreciate your shutters while you live there now – and get back your investment later, when you sell your home.
These aren’t the flimsy, one-size-fits-none shutters you see everywhere. We measure each window to the sixteenth of an inch, then build your shutters specifically for your home. The result is a perfect fit that looks like it came with the house, not something tacked on as an afterthought.
A Plus Shutters & Shades serves Smithwick and the surrounding Tarrant County area with locally manufactured plantation shutters. We’re not a middleman selling someone else’s product—we control the entire process from initial consultation to final installation.
We guarantee satisfaction by focusing on bespoke solutions and excellent service. We’re dedicated to enhancing your home with high-quality, Texas-made products. This means when you call us with a question or concern, you’re talking to the people who actually made your shutters.
Our team understands the unique challenges Texas homeowners face. We know how brutal the summer sun can be on window treatments, and we build our shutters to handle decades of Texas weather without warping, fading, or failing.
We start with a free in-home consultation where we measure your windows and show you samples in your actual lighting. When our sales representative comes out, he will have a concrete quote for you on the spot. We control all aspects of the manufacturing process so we know what our price is the moment we take the measurements.
Once you approve the design and pricing, we manufacture your custom shutters in our local facility. Every home and every window is different, down to the sixteenth of an inch. Our representatives take final measurements when they initially come to your house for a quote, to ensure that there is no issue with the installation of your custom shutters.
Installation is handled by our own factory-trained team, not subcontractors. Our installers have experience working in the manufacturing side of plantation shutters, which enables them to ensure a perfect installation. If an issue arises during your custom shutter installation, they have the experience to correctly address it and complete the installation.

Your plantation shutters installation includes custom color matching to your existing trim, precise measurement and manufacturing, and professional installation. We use materials specifically chosen for Texas conditions—no warping in humidity, no fading in intense sun.
Real wooden shutters for windows have built-in insulating properties, helping keep your home cool and comfortable during the hot Texas summers and warm during cold spells. This isn’t just about looks. In Smithwick’s climate, proper window treatments are essential for comfort and energy efficiency.
We also provide noise reduction benefits that matter in growing Texas communities. Shutters are the only window treatment that can effectively reduce the amount of road noise that you hear inside your home. With our shutters being solid wood, they create a solid barrier that tremendously helps to control exterior noises. Perfect for busy streets or neighborhoods with ongoing construction.
Interior plantation shutters are priced by the square footage of the window opening. Add 3″ to the calculation of the width and length to include the charge for the trim around the window.
The total cost depends on your window sizes, material choice, and any custom features like specialty shapes or color matching. We provide exact pricing during your free in-home consultation because every window is different. Most homeowners find the investment pays for itself through energy savings and increased home value over time.
Estimated delivery time for shutters manufactured here locally in the DFW metroplex is approximately 4 weeks. We use local manufacturers that will measure and install their own product. The time starts with the exact measure appointment and when the shutters are ready, we will contact you directly for an installation.
This timeline can vary slightly based on the complexity of your order and current production schedule. Custom color matching or specialty shapes might add a few days. We’ll give you a precise timeline when we measure your windows.
Wood shutters offer the authentic look and feel that many homeowners prefer, with natural grain patterns and the ability to be stained or painted any color. The characteristics we like about North American Basswood is its stability—it does not warp! This quality is one of the factors that allows us to provide you with a lifetime transferable warranty.
Faux wood shutters are engineered for extreme moisture conditions and offer superior durability in areas like bathrooms and kitchens. Crafted from a solid-engineered wood substitute, Polywood® plantation shutters won’t warp, chip, split, or crack. On top of that, the color on our shutters won’t fade or yellow. Both options provide excellent insulation and noise reduction for Texas homes.
Absolutely. Everything is bigger in Texas, including our heat and cold waves. Real wooden shutters for windows have built-in insulating properties, helping keep your home cool and comfortable during the hot Texas summers and warm during cold spells.
The key is in the installation and fit. Properly measured and installed shutters create an air barrier that significantly reduces heat transfer through your windows. Many of our Smithwick customers report noticeable drops in their summer cooling bills. The insulation works both ways—keeping cool air in during summer and warm air in during those unexpected Texas cold snaps.
We offer a lifetime warranty that not only covers the original purchaser, but any future owners of the home. This warranty covers any manufacturing defect as well as warping, cracking, peeling etc.
This transferable warranty is possible because we control our manufacturing process and use materials specifically chosen for durability. We’re not reselling someone else’s product—we make these shutters ourselves, so we can stand behind them completely. The warranty covers both the shutters themselves and our installation work.
Yes, and this is where our local manufacturing really shows its value. We do not only have a few options to choose from when it comes to color selection. We custom paint or stain our shutters to the exact color your trim is or that you desire. This is a very important detail in the manufacturing process of custom shutters.
We also match trim profiles whenever possible. We use the exact same trim that frames the doors throughout your home. This makes the shutters look like they were built with your house. Our goal is shutters that look original to your home, not obviously added later. This attention to detail is what separates custom work from mass-produced alternatives.
