How to Install Your Inside Mount Shutters

Required Tools

Included Hardware

The hardware can be found in the small hardware box included with your blind.

Getting Started

Make sure to cross-reference your window label to find the right shutter.

• Do not dispose of packaging until the shutters are operating appropriately.
• The use of a moving blanket or drop cloth is recommended.
• Find ample working space to assemble your frame (preferably in front of the window).
• Check the diagram to make sure you have all the parts indicated for an appropriate installation.

Assembling

Assemble the Frame

1. Carefully remove panels and frames from the packaging. Do not mix panels or frames from other windows. All frame pieces are labelled (top, bottom, right, left).
2. Set all frames on a soft, level surface (moving blankets or some type of pad works best). Position each side of the frame and line up the Hoffman Key slot.
   If not installing with T-POST, skip to #4.
3. The top and bottom of the T-post are labelled. Locate and identify. Line up the pre-drilled holes with the top and bottom frame and secure with screws provided. Fasten the T-post with additional nails if necessary.
   • The T-post connector provides some wiggle room, make sure the T-post is at the centre position at each end and secure with two screws. The T-post can also be adjusted when gaps between panels are not even.
4. Insert the Hoffman Key into each slot at the back of the frame. Use a rubber mallet if necessary.
   1. The Hoffman Key has a rounded side and a flat side. The rounded side should be inserted in the slot first.
   2. With the rounded side of the Hoffman Key facing up, push the top frame down onto the Hoffman Key.
5. The frame is pre-drilled well in the top left and right frame, bottom left and right frame, and in the middle of the top and bottom frame. Double-check that all the holes are pre-drilled before placing the frame on the window.
6. Position the assembled frame evenly along the window opening against the window by using a tape measure and shims.
7. Once you have evenly spaced the frame into the window opening, secure it with a screw (pre-drill) into the upper left frame ONLY. The shutter will be fully secured in later steps. Once done, level the frame on the window.
8. Once the left side is secured, keep the frame level and secure with a screw (pre-drill) into the upper right frame. The shutter will be fully secured in later steps.
   Assemble Panels
9. With the top right and left frame secured, place the left shutter panel in the frame and slide into position. Align the hinges, and insert the hinge pin.
10. Open the left panel and place the right shutter panel(s) in the frame, slide into position, and insert hinge pins into hinges. Note: If you have bi-fold panels, after attaching the far left and/or far-right panels to the frame, you will need to join the hinges of the panels labelled P1 and P2 and insert hinge pins. Repeat for panels labelled P3 and P4 if you have these. Proper order of panels from left to right is P1, P2, P3, P4.
11. If panel hinges are not aligned with frame hinges properly, then frame hinges can be adjusted.
12. Once panels have been positioned and secured with the hinge pins, make sure shutter panels are even across the top and bottom. If panels are not even, shift (rack) your frame left to right until the gap is even.
13. Once the panels are lined up, screw at the bottom of the left frame.
    Only secure one screw into the bottom left frame.
14. After securing the bottom left, secure with a screw at the bottom right. DOUBLE-CHECK AND MAKE SURE PANELS ARE STILL EVEN ACROSS THE TOP.
    Tip:
    Step away from the window and open the louvres to make sure the shutter is evenly positioned to the window.
15. Check gaps between panels and adjust accordingly with hinge spacers provided if needed.
16. Open and close panels to make sure panels operate properly. Secure the frame with screws through the rest of the holes.
    1. Tip:
       1. Move the top & bottom frame up and down to achieve proper tolerance between the panel and frame.
       2. Move side frames in and out to achieve proper tolerance between panel and frame.
17. After the top and bottom frames are secured, check that the shutter operates properly. Fasten the deadlock screw for all hinges.
    Tip: It is recommended to apply 2 screws for every hinge, and 1 screw between hinges.
18. Install the plugs into the frames’ pre-drilled plug holes to complete the look of your shutters.

Great Job… Enjoy your new Coverly Shutters!
