Standard Size Plantation Shutters Sets - Measuring Your Windows

To measure for Standard Size Plantation Shutters, use a steel tape measure to ensure accuracy.  Measure your width and height at three points each as shown in the picture.  Use only the largest measurements.

You will also want to measure your window's backspace.  The backspace of a window ensures proper louver clearance and operation.  Standard Size Plantation Shutters require at least 5/8" of backspace.  When measuring backspace, be sure to take into consideration anything which may inhibit the louvers from opening all the way.  This may be window trim, locks, opening cranks, or even the window itself.
