Method of manufacturing a prefinished fiberboard shutter

1. A shutter manufacturing method comprising the steps of:

applying a first laminate to a surface of a substrate to form a laminated sheet;

cutting said laminated sheet to a predetermined width to form a laminated board;

cutting said laminated board to a predetermined length to form a prefinished shutter component; and

assembling said prefinished shutter component into a shutter.

2. The shutter manufacturing method according to claim 1 further comprising the steps of:

cutting said laminated sheet at said predetermined width to form a second laminated board; and

cutting one of said laminated board and said second laminated board at said predetermined length to form a second prefinished shutter component; and

assembling said second prefinished shutter component into said shutter.

3. The shutter manufacturing method according to claim 1 further comprising the steps of:

milling an edge of said laminated board to form a milled edge; and

applying a second laminate to said milled edge.

4. The manufacturing method according to claim 3 wherein:

said substrate is manufactured wood; and

said prefinished shutter component is a generally planar louver.

5. The shutter manufacturing method according to claim 4 further comprising the steps of:

drilling a link hole into said milled edge; and

gluing a link into said link hole.

6. A shutter manufacturing method comprising the steps of:

providing a laminated manufactured wood substrate sheet;

identifying a plurality of attached shutter components configured edge-to-edge and end-to-end so as to comprise said substrate sheet;

separating said attached shutter components into a plurality of prefinished shutter components; and

incorporating said prefinished shutter components into a shutter assembly.

7. The shutter manufacturing method according to claim 6 wherein said separating step comprises the substeps of:

cutting along edge portions of said attached shutter components; and

cutting along end portions of said attached shutter components.

8. The shutter manufacturing method according to claim 7 further comprising the step of milling said edge portions of said attached shutter components.

9. The shutter manufacturing method according to claim 8 further comprising the step of laminating said edge portions of said attached shutter components.

10. The shutter manufacturing method according to claim 9 further comprising the step of laminating said end portions so as to provide a plurality of generally planar, prefinished louvers.
