I have to replace two stationary, exterior shutter panels. There is no
way to repair my current ones as they are multi-density fiber (MDF)
and years old. They were never maintained by the original owner, so
they are going into the trash.

I looked at the obvious places with no luck. I live in the desert an
thought a vinyl shutter should work and then I found some incense
cedar ones on line. I thought of them as expensive ($190 for the
pair/size I need), plus I will have to finish them (prime/paint).

These are exact to what I have (except material).

Sample: http://www.shutterland.net/exterior-shutters-s.htm

Is the cedar over kill for my location and does someone have a source
for vinyl or other ideas? They are only cosmetic, screwed to the
exterior wall.

Thanks and Merry Christmas.

I had a bunch of links that I deleted. Google is your friend here. That is
where I found them. Use a search term like
"exterior shutters" +custom

Do you really need a custom size? No BORG stocks them all but shutters both
wood and vinyl are sold in like 12, 15, 18" widths with about 10 or 12
heights all stock sizes and on average about 1/3 the price of a custom size.
