Practical checks to help you plan and look after your plantation shutters.
01
Keep all readings
Record three widths and three heights plus both diagonals. Label where each measurement was taken.
02
Identify the cause
Note tapered reveals, a sloping sill, bowing or damaged plaster. Check the intended fixing surfaces as well as the opening itself.
03
Ask before ordering
Send the measurements and photos for advice. Do not average the readings or assume a frame will conceal every variation.
