STEP 5: FASTEN THE FRAME IN TWO POINTS
Note: Review Packing Slip (Step 1) for further instructions on how to identify your frame and
mount type.
FASTEN FRAME FOR INSIDE MOUNT WITH Z, TRIM, BULLNOSE, DECOR TRIM OR L FRAME
• Center the assembled frame in opening, using the Product Labels to ensure the frame is right side up.
• Set one of the supplied screws through the pre-drilled hole on the upper left hand frame. Once secured,
set one of the supplied screws through the pre-drilled hole on the upper right hand frame.
• Be sure to fasten the screws through the frame and into the window jabs.
Note: When setting screws, seat screws fully, back out at least ½", and then reseat (do not over-tighten).
This will ensure your frame remains square during the installation process.
FASTEN FRAME FOR OUTSIDE MOUNT WITH L FRAME OR CASING FRAME
• Center the frame on window opening, using the Product Labels to ensure the frame is right side up
• Set one of the supplied screws in the top of the left side frame pre-drilled hole.
• Place a level on the top frame, and move the right side frame until the frame is level.
• Secure the top of the right frame to the wall using a supplied screw, keeping the frame level.
Note: Do not over tighten the screws. Overtightening the screws will cause the frame to distort.

STEP 6: HANG PANELS
• Set the panel(s) in the frame
• Insert the hinge pins into the hinges.
STEP 7: SQUARE OR LEVEL PANELS TO THE OPENING (See Diagram at Right)
Confirm that the panels are level/square by using a
level. The panels should smoothly seat into the frame.
If not, the following adjustment can be made
to correct it.
• Move bottom frame left or right (A) until the
panel(s) are level with even gaps. Once the
panels are confirmed to be level, hold the
bottom frame and carefully insert a screw into
the bottom frame.
Note: If you cannot achieve desired squareness, see
troubleshooting section for additional tips to achieve a
square panel.
Panel locks are located at the top and bottom of a
shutter panel. They are used to keep panels securely
closed and can also be used to level the panel.
FOR MOUNTING STRIP APPLICATIONS
• Adjust the bent-leaf hinges, if necessary, by loosening the hinge screws and moving the hinge left or right.
Re-tighten hinge screws once the panel is confirmed to be level.
STEP 8: FASTEN REMAINING SCREWS
• Confirm the panels are square within the frame by using a level. Once the panels are level or has even light gaps,
hold the bottom frame in position and set a screw in the middle bottom frame hole.
• Insert screws in the remaining holes, and check to ensure panels are level after every screw has been seated.
For Mounting Strip Applications
• Center frame and insert screws
Note: Be careful not to over tighten the screws. Overtightening the screws may cause the frame to distort.
