What Is an Outside Mount?
An outside mount, also called a face fit, positions the plantation shutter on the front face of the wall or window architrave instead of inside the recess.

Overview
Outside mounting uses an outside L-frame and is suitable for many window types. It is especially useful where the recess is shallow, incorporates obstructions, or where an inside-mounted shutter would interfere with the existing window.
The trade-off is that the shutter is slightly larger and projects further into the room. Confirm there is a suitable flat fixing surface around the opening before selecting this option.
