Why Choose Basswood Shutters

Fine-grained Hardwood

Ultra-smooth surface and consistent texture, ideal for painted or stained finishes.

Easy Installation

Clean, crisp edges and excellent workability make Basswood simple to fit, and finish with precision.

Stable & Warp-Resistant

Performs reliably in typical indoor conditions, ensuring a long-lasting, professional result.

Customisable

A Versatile Choice

Basswood is a hardwood prized for its smooth grain, consistency of colour, and excellent finishing qualities. It is a top choice for applications where visual perfection is just as important as structural soundness. And what’s more, they can be fitted to special shaped windows such as circles or triangles. You’ll have these shutters up in no time.

Each shutter is made from high-quality timber that’s easy to work with and delivers a professional result, whether you’re painting for a clean, modern look or staining for a rich, natural finish.

We offer Basswood in several configurations, so you can tailor each order to your customer’s needs:

  • Basswood Hardwood – full hardwood panels and frames, for a traditional, handcrafted look.
  • Basswood + Solid AluCore Slats – reinforced aluminium-cored slats for enhanced strength and stability on wider windows.
  • Basswood + PVC Frames – the ideal hybrid for kitchens or windows that experience pooling condensation, combining classic timber panels with moisture-resistant frames.
  • Basswood + Solid AluCore Slats + PVC Frames – Premium hybrid offering maximum durability, and a long-lasting, flawless finish.

I can't speak highly enough about C&C. I set up my business less than two years ago and they have been absolutely brilliant. I wouldn't dream of going to another supplier.

Great company, with great people. C&C have offered me fantastic support, and have helped me massively, during the early stages of my business. I was completely new to the Shutter industry but C&C have continued to offer me extra mentorship and support, to help me progress.

We have been using Carter & Clark as a supplier now for a few years and we wouldn’t go anywhere else. The quality of their products are brilliant but it’s the staff that put this company above any competitors. Their customer service is the best we have come across, they are extremely helpful and friendly. We would 100% recommend them.

I have been using C & C Trade Shutters for around 4-5 years now and have been so happy with the exceptional service and superb products. Kyla is amazing! She brings such a positive energy to every interaction and always goes above and beyond to provide the best service. Nothing is ever too much trouble. The products are great quality and by far the most consistent I have ever used. I also think the prices are very reasonable. The ordering portal is super easy to use. If you are looking for a shutter supplier that ticks all the boxes I highly recommend getting in touch with C&C.
