Title: Step 3' Loading the hinges


1
Step 3. Loading the hinges
  • When using a drill/driver to attach the hinges,
    be sure to set the tool's slip clutch to low.
    This lower torque setting will stop the bit from
    turning when a screw is fully tightened. It'll
    also eliminate any chance of stripping the screw
    head and damaging the shutter.

Step 4.Installing the hang strips
Have a helper hold a shutter in the open position
against the wall with its hinges flipped out so
they sit inside the jamb. Adjust the entire unit
so its hinges protrude from the jamb just enough
to allow the shutter to clear the casing when
it's parallel to the wall. Pencil a line on the
jamb behind each hinge. Hold the hanging strip
against the lines. With a ½-inch drill bit
chucked into your drill/driver, bore pilot holes
(one each at top and bottom) through the strip
and into the jamb. Now with a square-head bit in
your drill/driver, screw the hanging strip to the
jamb. Repeat on the other side. Tip Drive the
screws into the hanging strips at an angle to
keep them from working loose over time.
