Recess Fit Guide
Step 1 – Preparation
Open and check the custom kit, lay it all out on a clean, hard surface or the cardboard packaging it came in. Be careful not to scratch the parts when moving them.
Step 2 – Click your shutter frame together
Click each section of your shutter frame together
Turn over your shutter frame and lay it back down. Using your cordless drill with the 3 mm drill bit, drill holes through the back of the shutter frame, in line with each hinge. Also drill four, evenly spaced holes through the back of the shutter frame at both the top and the bottom. The back of the shutter frame will attach to your window frame.
Step 3 – screw holes and mount in your window frame
Lift your frame into place, on the inside of your window frame or recess. It can help to have two people for larger frames, so you don't bump the corners of your shutter frame. The front of the shutter frame should be flush with your wall, for a really seamless fit. And make sure there is an even gap between your shutter frame and your window frame or recess on all four sides.
Drill the screws part way in near the top corners of your shutter frame, using your drill with the Phillips head drill bit and the screws in your kit.
Step 4 – Attach your shutter panels
Pick up your left panel and hold into position. The brackets should line up on the left side of your shutter frame and your panel. Take a hinge pin and drop it through the bracket, from the top. Repeat for each panel.
