How to Measure

How to Measure: Inside Mount

Please Note: Our shutters are designed for square and rectangular windows only. We do not offer shutters for arched, curved, or specialty size windows.

Let's make sure you have what you need!

A metal tape measure
Pen and paper to record all measurements
Determine whether you will mount as an inside mount Z-Frame or an inside mount L-Frame based on the depth requirements and your window configuration.
- Z-Frame: Mounted inside the front edges of the window opening with a trim-cased window frame.
  - Can be installed in windows with up to a ½" variance between your 3 width and 3 height measurements (see below).
  - Have a protruding sill? This frame will have a flat bottom sill plate that rests on top of the sill for support.
  - Depth requirements:
    - 2 ½" Louvers: 1 3/8" of depth
    - 3 ½" Louvers: 1 7/8" of depth
- L-Frame: Mounted inside the window opening, is fully recessed and flush with the wall.
  - *Window frames that do not have equal measurements may create gaps between the shutter frame and the window opening. Caulk can be used to fill the gap.
  - If the variance between your 3 width and/or height measurements is more than ½", we recommend an outside mount L-Frame.
  - Depth requirements:
    - 2 ½" Louvers: 1 ¾" of depth
    - 3 ½" Louvers: 2 ¼" of depth

How to Measure:

Let's start with the Width:

Inside of the window opening/frame measure from left to right at the top of the opening, the middle of the opening, and then the bottom of the opening. Write down all 3 measurements and circle the narrowest. If rounding is necessary, round down to the nearest 1/8”. That is your ordering width.

Now, let's do the Height:

Inside of the window opening/frame measure from the top of the opening to the bottom of the opening/sill on the left-hand side, the middle, and on the right-hand side. Write down all 3 measurements and circle the smallest. If rounding is necessary, round down to the nearest 1/8". That is your ordering height.

Note: You are ordering the exact window opening size, not the size of the shutter to the nearest 1/8". The factory will make a deduction to your Width or Height to ensure your shutter will fit your opening.

How to Measure: Outside Mount

Please Note: Our shutters are designed for square and rectangular windows only. We do not offer shutters for arched, curved, or specialty size windows.

Let's make sure you have what you need!

A metal tape measure
Pen and paper to record all measurements
Check if you have sufficient flat space and depth: This outside mount L-Frame requires 1 ½" of flat space around the window. If you plan to mount this frame onto existing molding or trim, that space must also be at least 1 ½" wide.
- L-Frame: Mounted outside the window opening onto an existing wall, door, molding, or trim.
  - Depth requirements:
    - 2 ½" Louvers: 1/8" of depth
    - 3 ½" Louvers: ½" of depth

How to Measure:

Let's start with the Width:

If you are mounting the frames onto existing molding or trim, measure from the outside edges of the molding left to right at the top of the opening, the middle of the opening, and then the bottom of the opening. Write down all 3 measurements and circle the largest. Subtract 3" from the largest measurement (the one you circled). If rounding is necessary, round down to the nearest 1/8”. That is your ordering width.
If you are not mounting on existing molding or trim, measure from left to right at the top of the opening, the middle of the opening, and then the bottom of the opening. Write down all 3 measurements and circle the largest. That is your ordering width.

Now, let's do the Height:

Follow the instructions for the configuration that applies to you:
- YES to molding/trim, YES to a protruding windowsill:
  - Measure from the top of the sill to the outside edge of the trim above the window opening on the left-hand side, the middle, and on the right-hand side. Write down all 3 measurements and circle the tallest. Subtract 1 ½" from the tallest measurement (the one you circled). That is your ordering height.
- NO to molding/trim, YES to a protruding windowsill:
  - Measure from the top of the sill to the top of the window opening on the left-hand side, the middle, and on the right-hand side. Write down all 3 measurements and circle the tallest. That is your ordering height.
- NO to molding/trim, NO to a protruding windowsill:
  - Measure the height of the window opening on the left-hand side, the middle, and on the right-hand side. Write down all 3 measurements and circle the tallest. If rounding is necessary, round up to the nearest 1/8". That is your ordering height.
- YES to molding/trim, NO to a protruding windowsill:
  - Measure the height of the window frame including trim, from outside edge to outside edge on the left-hand side, the middle, and on the right-hand side. Write down all 3 measurements and circle the tallest. Subtract 3" from the tallest measurement (the one you circled). If rounding is necessary, round up to the nearest 1/8". That is your ordering height.

Note: The factory will ADD 1 ½" for each frame side so that the entire width of the L frame is outside of the window opening. (Unless there is a bottom existing window sill, in which case they would not add the 1 ½" at the bottom.) They will not make any deductions to your Width or Height.

With that being said, we cannot guarantee they will remain unaffected by prolonged exposure to intense, direct sun.

Very Pleased
The wood faux plantation shutters were a replacement for my original shutters. They are made slightly different than the first shutters. They are made to the exact measurements that I gave to the 1/8”. My original had some minor gap at the perimeter. The new shutters were made to the exact measurement so some tweaking was needed, but they look beautiful. Just what I wanted. Thank you Blindster!!

Hi Jim, we're happy to hear you're pleased with the look and precise fit of your new shutters! Thank you for trusting us with your replacement order and for taking the time to share your feedback.
Jim, Bennington, US · September 30, 2026
Very happy with our first order placed through Blindster. Quality is very good (we selected Premium). The blinds assembled easily and had a nice fit and finish. Take note regarding plantation shutters....At first I was a bit disapointed and was ready to call customer service, as the shutters were very loose and wouldn't stay fully closed due to their weight. I was surpised there was no documentation to address this, but after researching a generic planaton shutter manufacturer online, I found out you can tighten the shutter tension using a screwdriver inserted into a hole on the side of the shutters. Once we did this it solved the problem - but there was no mention of this anywhere on the instructions. I was very impressed with the packaging. They were of course boxed securely, but each component of the blinds were individually packaged in an industrial-grade bubble wrap...Not the traditional bubble wrap that one pops with their fingers. This was very heavy-duty, thick plastic, long air-filled tubes resembling a thin air matress that were extremely strong and protective. You couldn't pop these with your hands. I had to use a box cutter to pop and collapse them when I was ready to discard it. We will definitly use Blindster when we are ready to order the next set of blinds. Note that I followed the measuring guide carefully and double-checked my measurements before placing the order. Don't take one meaurement - follow the instructions.
