Shutter Frames

For advice on shutters call us on 888-753-8290 or see our Contact Us page.

While you can order your shutters as panels only, most people find it makes installation easier if you order your shutter panels with shutter frames too.

Shutter frames create a perfect surround for your plantation shutters, especially useful if you live in an older house with uneven walls or if your windows aren't entirely level. First, the frame is mounted on your wall or window, then your shutter panels are mounted inside the frame for a beautiful, professional finish. Simple as that!

Watch our video to help you understand which installation type and frame is best for you:

Affordable Basswood shutters

Inside Mount

If you still want to be able to use your window sill after your shutters have been installed, you should mount your shutters inside the window recess.

Classic Poplar shutters

Outside mount

If there's no recess on your windows, as with many sash windows, for example, an outside mount will be the best way to install your new shutters.
