For the initial installation process, start by marking the shutter’s location in the position where the top edge of the shutter is in line with the window trim. When measuring, be sure that the bottom edge of the shutter lines un with the lowest and the thickest portion on the window rail. With vinyl shutters it is essential to leave a space between the trim and the shutter to account for expansion and contraction that happen during fluctuations in temperature.

After that, you need to place the shutter in a place that’s safe for drilling. It is recommended to drill four holes for mounting, with one at each one of the corners. These holes need to be centered and two inches from the edge so that there is no damage to the shutter during the drilling process. There are shutters that require extra mounting holes, depending on their weight and size.

When you’ve aligned the trim to the correct position After aligning the trim properly, swap the shutter for the window.
