How to measure for custom plantation shutters
Step by step guide
To measure for custom plantation shutters, start by deciding on an inside or outside mount. For width, measure the window opening at the top, middle, and bottom, using the narrowest measurement for inside mounts. For outside mounts, measure the entire window width and add 2–3 inches for overlap. For height, measure the left side, middle, and right side for inside mounts, using the shortest measurement. For outside mounts, measure from your desired top position to the bottom of the window sill, adding extra height for overlap if desired. Lastly, check the window frame depth and record all measurements clearly before submitting them to your supplier.
How to install custom plantation shutters
Step by step guide
To install custom plantation shutters, begin by preparing your workspace and gathering necessary tools like a drill and level. Check the fit of the shutters in the window, then mark the positions for the mounting brackets on the frame for inside mounts or on the wall for outside mounts. Secure the brackets with a drill, ensuring they are level. Attach the shutter panels to the brackets, ensuring they slide smoothly. If applicable, install the tilt rod as per the manufacturer’s instructions. Finally, check that everything is level, tighten all screws, and clean up the area. Always follow the manufacturer’s guidelines for specific instructions.
