How to Read Your Shutter Drawings
Your shutter drawing or order summary turns the nominated dimensions and options into a visual representation of what will be manufactured.
Confirm the overall dimensions
Compare the displayed width and drop with the final dimensions for the correct window. Do not compare them with an earlier rough quote.
Check panel layout
Confirm the number of panels, hinge directions and any fixed vertical posts align with your intended window layout.
Check horizontal features
Review midrail positions and other horizontal divisions against the underlying window.
Check frame and mount
Confirm the nominated frame corresponds with the inside or outside mounting plan and the available clearance.
Resolve anything unclear
Do not approve a drawing you don’t understand. Ask for clarification before the order proceeds to custom manufacture.
