Important Measurement Information
The height of the vinyl exterior shutters you order with these transom shutter tops should be 13 inches less than the window measurement.
To obtain the window measurement for rectangular windows, measure from the top of the window to the bottom of the window including the window trim. Subtracting 13 inches from this measurement will give you the correct size of exterior shutters to order for this transom shutter top.
For example, if you measure your window and it is 61" in height, the size of exterior vinyl shutters you order for these transom tops should be 48" (61 - 13 = 48).
Remember - measure twice and order once!

Frequently Asked Questions
-
How do I remove the Shutterplugs from the vinyl shutters once they are in place?
Slide a chisel behind the vinyl shutter until it comes in contact with the Shutterplug. Make sure to keep the sharp edge of the chisel away from the wall. Give the chisel a sharp tap with a hammer and it will cut through the Shutterplug. After the shutter is removed, shear the remaining part of the Shutterplug flush with the surface and bore out the shank with a drill. Fill the hole with silicone to weatherproof. See our Vinyl Shutter Removal Instructions for additional information.
-
My exterior wall is uneven. How do I install my exterior vinyl shutters?
You can use ferrules (a short cylindrical pipe) as standoffs to keep your vinyl shutters stable. Simply paint them, trim to size, and mount them behind your exterior shutters. Do not to put wood blocks behind the vinyl exterior shutters because they will rot fairly quickly.
