How To... Install Vinyl Shutters

Shutter-Lock
Installation Instructions

For
use on any surface including: wood, aluminum, vinyl,
stucco, hardboard, brick, or masonry.

Required for installation

• Electric drill, 1/4" drill bit, hammer, and Shutter-Loks

Step
1:


Place the shutter next to the window and mark desired location against
the wall or window.

Step
2:

For smaller sizes use four Shutter-Loks per shutter.
For large sizes 55" and over, use six Shutter-Loks
per shutter.

Step
3:


To help ensure proper alignment, mark or pre-drill
holes using a 1/4" drill
bit into the shutter before attaching it to the wall.

Step
4:


With the shutter in location against the wall, drill
through the shutter into the walls surface 3 1/4" deep.
Make sure you drill holes deep enough so the Shutter-Lok
doesn't bottom out.

Step
5:


Grasp the Shutter-Lok supporting shank and push it through the shutter
hole and into the wall surface. Tap the Shutter-Lok gently with a hammer
to snug the shutter against the siding. Do not over
tighten, or this will cause the shutter to dimple.

NOTE:

To remove shutters, do not attempt to pull out the Shutter-Loks. Simply
use a pair of snips and slide them behind the shutter to cut the
Shutter-Lok off at the shank.
