Colonial Shutters
- Measuring Instructions
Colonial style shutters have been used
for as long as man could build them. They
are installed on hinges at the side of openings
and can be folded over the opening or stored
to the side of each opening. The dimensions
we need are the width of the opening and
the height of the opening. Standard allowances
will be made by us.
For example, should you require a surface
mounte, the following allowances would be
made. To obtain the panel width, we divide
the opening width by 2 and add 2”.
That means the panel coverage will be 4"
greater than the opening width. The height
of the panels will be 4” greater than
the opening height. Except! If you have
a window sill that extends out from the
wall surface the panels will be 2”
greater than the opening dimension and when
the shutters are closed they will be above
the existing sill.
If you require a recess mount, the panel
coverage will be reduced overall by 1/2
inch in width and height. Keep in mind you
will need space on each side of the window
for the panels in the stored position.
