THE GRABER WOOD STORY
QUALITY OF WOOD DEFINES A SHUTTER’S
QUALITY
SPRINGS FABRICATION AND FINISHING,
REYNOSA, MEXICO
We use only 100% North American hardwood in the
construction of our wood shutters because of its light
weight, consistent color, hardness, structural stability,
and attractive grain.
At our state-of-the art finishing plant in Reynosa, Mexico,
components are carefully sorted prior to fabrication for color
uniformity and wood characteristics. We sort wood as an end
user, rather than a finishing vendor, taking out defects in a
climate-controlled building. Each shutter is hand-made by
craftsmen to your client’s custom needs. To finish the shutter,
we use only high quality paints and stains; on-site certified
color technicians provide both application and quality control.
SOUND FORESTRY TECHNIQUES
We work only with foresters who practice “sustained yield
forest management” – nearly twice as much hardwood
grows as is harvested in the U.S. each year. The volume of
hardwoods in American forests today is 90% larger than it was
50 years ago.
WHAT MAKES GRABER TRADITIONS SHUTTERS
DIFFERENT FROM THE REST?
• Wood shutters are made from 100% North American
Hardwoods – the premier wood used in the construction
of shutters
PRESERVING OUR NATURAL RESOURCES
Springs Wood Products consume recycled sawdust and wood
shavings, generating the heat required to dry lumber, for a
completely self-sufficient manufacturing process. Our Reynosa,
Mexico, fabrication and finishing facility is 99.7% pollution free,
above any U.S. standard.
• Springs Wood Products and Finishing facilities provide
state-of-the-art technologies and processes
• Expanded choice of finishes with PureGrain™ Finish –
vibrant stains that showcase the natural grain of the wood
• Offer the only national Custom Color Match program in
the industry – color choices that no one has ever seen in
custom wood shutters before
SPRINGS WOOD PRODUCTS, GRAYLING,
MICHIGAN
We have control over the quality of wood used – we control
the process from green lumber to finished shutters. Hardwoods
used in crafting Graber wood shutters are kiln dried and
moulded at our Springs Wood Products facility in Grayling,
Michigan. The wood is dried slowly to strict wood shutter
specifications, because structural change can occur when
moisture is removed. Moulding and sanding operations provide
the highest quality surface, free of defects.
• An outstanding selection of styles, louvers (including 4½"
size), frames and arches
• The best Customer Service team in the industry-trained to
answer any questions about Graber Traditions Shutters
• Limited Lifetime Warranty

GRABER WOOD CHARACTERISTICS
GRABER WOOD CHARACTERISTICS
Wood used to manufacture Graber wood shutters has many
natural characteristics which make it truly unique… no two
pieces of hardwood are alike. The following are all natural
characteristics of wood and we do not consider them to
be defects:
•
Grain – The direction, size, and appearance of wood fibers
vary greatly depending on where the wood is cut from
within the tree
•
Burl – Formed from an irregular growth on the outer edge
of the tree
•
Bird’s Eye – Small area on the surface of the board where
fibers are contorted to form circular figures that resemble
birds’ eyes
•
Knots – Vary in size, shape, structure and color
•
Mineral Marks – Dark or discolored area caused by
minerals which the tree extracts from the soil; can be either
a streak or a stain, usually blackish blue
Flat Grain
Grain Change
Natural variations in color and grain effect are inherent in the
beauty of wood. These variations are within established industry
guidelines and should be expected. In addition, shutters may
stain slightly darker or lighter than the samples shown.

GENERAL PRODUCT INFORMATION
PRODUCT ELEMENTS
Use this information to educate your client on the process of
having Graber Traditions™ Shutters custom made for their home.
Divider Rails: Divider rails are used to provide additional
support and light control. Can be ordered as an option to
create a double hung look or for decorative effect.
MOUNTING
Window Molding: Shutter frames can be installed around, on
top of, or in place of existing window molding.
Shutter panels over 72" tall (45" for 1¼" louver) or 30" wide
will have a divider rail installed at the center of the panel (21⁄2"
or 31⁄2" louver +/- 11⁄2"; 41⁄2" louver +/- 2") unless specified on
the order form. Panels over 30" wide and 78" high require two
divider rails. Divider rails may be ordered on panels less than
72". Divider rails require at least two louvers in each section.
Maximum number of divider rails is two.
• Mounting around molding – The frame height needs
to project enough to allow for louver operation (see
page 11)
• Mounting on molding – The molding needs to be flat
enough (installation onto wood molding only) so the
frame will sit plumb and level, and wide enough to
allow a screw to be driven through it without splitting
the wood
1¼" and 2½" louvers will have 2" wide divider rails.
3½" and 4½" louvers will have 3" wide divider rails.
Rabbet Stile: Used when two stiles meet, this feature creates a
built in light block.
• Mounting in place of existing molding – The shutter
frame selected must be wide enough to cover the same
areas as the molding that is removed
Tilt Bar: The factory will position the tilt bar in the center of
each panel.
Windowsills: An existing windowsill may offer a decorative
element to a room. Shutters can be customized to work with
the windowsill.
Hide-A-Tilt™ Hidden Tilt Bar: Tilt mechanism in the back of
the shutter panel rather than the front.
• Outside mounts – L-frame may be ordered 4-sided
Color Disclaimer: Due to the natural characteristics of wood,
colors may vary slightly. To ensure proper color matches,
shutters being mounted in the same room should be ordered
at one time. Slight variations in color may also occur between
the finished product and the color samples/literature.

SHUTTER TYPES
Bi-Fold Track System: Two or four panels are hinged together
with a top and bottom track.
Standard Panel: A rectangular shaped panel that can be
installed using any frame style.
Bi-Fold: Two panels are hinged together that fold together to
lay flush.
Bypass Track System: Shutter panels slide on a top track to
open and close. The track system can be attached to a frame or
mounted directly to a window casing or the ceiling. The most
common approach is a 3-sided box out (see page 20) with
floor guides. Louvers must be closed to slide on track.

SHUTTER LOUVERS
LOUVER OPTIONS
1¼" Louver
Traditional in style. Required clearance 1⁄8".
2½" Louver
The most traditional and widely used louver size; minimal
window depth needed; shutters become the focal point of the
room. Required clearance 3⁄4".
3½" Louver
Offers more visibility and light control than a smaller
louver; allows design flexibility when working with space
around shutter. Required clearance 1¼".
4½" Louver
Provides the greatest amount of visibility through the open
louvers; looks most proportionate in a larger window; view
beyond the window becomes more
important – louvers almost disappear
when open. Required clearance 13⁄4".

HIDDEN TILT
Hide-A-Tilt™ Hidden Tilt Option offers the tilt mechanism
in the back of the shutter panel, eliminating the traditional tilt
bar and creating an unobstructed view as well as a clean lineal
appearance. A thin stainless steel tilt bar is attached to the
louvers in the rear of the panel. Operation of the shutter is as
simple as positioning one louver into position; all of the other
louvers will follow.
GRAB E R

Available on standard shutters, French doors, Bi-Fold or Bypass
with 2½" and 3½" louvers. To measure for a Hide-A-Tilt use
the traditional measuring procedure (page 12), plus check for
additional ½" clearance in the back of the shutter.

TRACK SYSTEMS
Stackback Option (available on Bypass or Bi-Fold Track
Measuring for Outside Mount with Box Out
Systems)
It is recommended that the Box Out Frame be mounted to a
flat surface. Add trim or molding to the width and height of the
opening of the window.
The stackback option allows for the shutter panels to clear the
window opening, creating an unobstructed view.
Measure only the frame to frame area for outside mount with
stackback. Factory will calculate the correct stackback needed.
General Guidelines for Stackback: Use the formulas below to estimate the minimum additional space needed. Submit frame to
frame measurement only, do not include additional width needed. Factory will calculate the additional frame length needed.
Bypass Track System
Bypass Panel Configurations:
• Ideal solution for large windows and patio doors
• Outside mount with 3-sided box out is standard
1L / 1R
• System consists of a double-top track and floor guides
1L / 1C / 1R
Configuration Options:
1L / 1C / 1C / 1R
Ordered width ÷ # of panels
– Outside Mount with Box Out
– Outside Mount without Box Out
– Inside Mount, minimum window depth 53⁄8"
Bi-Fold Track System
Bi-Fold Track System
Bi-Fold Panel Configurations:
• System consists of top, bottom track and ¼" round
as standard
Number of panels per side x 1.5"
Ex: LLRR, 2 sided stackback 2 x 1.5" = 3"
An additional 3" on each side is needed.
