  • Learn how to install exterior shutters with this how-to video from Lowe's. An easy way to enhance your curb appeal is by installing shutters on your home.
    Choosing the right shutters for your home is an important first step. Black raised panel vinyl shutters offer a simple, stylish look for most homes. Make sure you choose the right size shutters for your windows. Generally, shutters should match the height of the window or door you are embellishing.
    Hold the shutter next to the window in the spot that looks best and push a pencil through the holes to mark where to position your screws. Use the pencil marks on your house as a guide for drilling pilot holes for your screws. Then use a drill to secure the shutter to your house with screws.
    Enjoy the new look of your home, thanks to this easy DIY shutters project from Lowe's.
    Difficulty Level: Moderate. If you are not 100% confident installing exterior shutters, Lowe's recommends that you hire a professional. Call 1-877-GO-LOWES or visit low.es/334f2dv to learn more about installation services through Lowe’s.

    They look terrible, especially on the first Floor windows, they are much bigger than the window frames...! Who would want this...?

    These fake shutters look terrible. The shutters are not even sized properly to give the impression that they would cover the entire window.

    I was looking for info on how to attach some real, working shutters. You should rename this infomercial to more accurately reflect what it is, which is NOT how to hang working shutters.

    No, they do not come pre-drilled.

    Wrong size shutters

    Experts...dude, before you drill a hole, learn how to secure your drill bit into the chuck... can't do it right even on a pre-drilled hole...what a joke.

    These aren’t shutters. These are pieces of material mounted next to windows to mimic the look of opened shutters.

      What do you expect from a guy who puts his drill in his toolbelt pocket, rather than a belt hook?

    Wow. Pathetic. What type screw did you use? You talked about everything except installing the shutter.

  • @davidu8688
    @davidu8688 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    What about adding to vinyl siding? Who has wood siding anymore?

    What the heck is up fake shutters? Every where I go I see lots of fake shutters too small to even function.

      No one cares to put the work in any longer. To see proper BLINDS (exterior) plug "the Salem Towne House" into the TH-cam search engine.

    This is the wrong way to hang shutters. They should not be placed next to window.
