- Level
- Measuring tape
- Screws and hinges (usually provided with your shutters)
- Pencil for marking
Installation Process:
- Measure Your Window: Carefully measure the height and width of your windows to ensure your shutters will fit perfectly. Measuring from three points for both width and height – the top, middle, and bottom – is crucial.
- Mounting the Frame: Position the frame inside your window recess or on the wall around your window. Use a level to make sure it is perfectly horizontal. Mark the places where screws will go with a pencil.
- Attach the Frame: Secure the frame to the wall or window casing with screws. If installing exterior shutters, make sure to use weather-resistant screws.
- Hang the Shutters: Once the frame is secure, hang the shutters on the hinges. Check to make sure they open and close smoothly.
- Final Adjustments: Adjust the shutters if necessary to ensure they hang evenly and operate smoothly. This may involve tightening or loosening the hinge screws slightly.
