Inside Mount Installation Instructions

Step 1 - Assemble Frames Signature Shutter frames are joined using a bowtie biscuit fastener system. To join the frames together, lay the frame pieces on your floor in a rectangle pattern. Hold the frame pieces together and insert the biscuit, then drive it flush with the back of the frame using a hammer.
Step 2 - Drill Pilot Holes Drill pilot screw holes into side frame pieces approximately 4" from the top and bottom of the frame.
Step 3 - Attach Frame to Window Use included screws to attach frame to window opening. Only place screws in the upper left and right hand sides. You will attach the bottom frame sides after the panels have been aligned.
Step 4 - Attach Panels to Frame Using the Hinge Screw Locator Template (below) drill a pilot hole 2 15/16" below the inner edge of the frame. Then, using only one screw per hinge, attach panels to frame. Position the panels so that there is a 1/16" between the top of the panel and the inside of the frame.
Step 5 - Align the Panels To align the panels, shift the bottom of the frame left or right until the tops of the panel line up. Then, lock in the alignment by driving the lower left and right hand side frame pieces into place.
Step 6 - Mount Magnent Catches With the left hand panel closed, locate the magnet so that its front left hand corner touches the left hand panel. Mount the magnet strike plate to the upper (for top magnet) and lower (for lower magnet) corners of the right hand panel (be sure to mount to the back of the panel)
Step 7 - Finish Up Drive the remainder of the hinge screws into place and then run a bead of caulk (if needed) where the frames meet the window casing/wall. To touchup the mounting screw holes, fill the void with our touchup putty and using a sponge brush, dab your touchup paint over the putty. Use the paint sparingly, the orange peel will disappear in a few minutes.
