Measure for Tilt-Z on wood trimmed window

In this video we'll be discussing how to measure for a Tilt Z frame shutter application on a wood trimmed window which is technically an inside mount. Tilt Z is a unique frame designed specifically to minimize the amount of space occupied on the window trim while also not obstructing the tilt in feature of the window itself the operation of the window lever locks or window cranks. Measuring properly for tilt Z is more difficult than any other frame type. The measurer must know the precise measure reference points. Those points are the inside edge of the window trim as it wraps around the outside of the window. The basic measuring approach is to first measure measure the width in three places at the top, the middle and at the bottom at the proper measure reference point of course, and record the narrowest width. You would then measure the height in three places at the left, the center and right again at the proper measure reference points and record the shortest measurement. When specifying tilt Z, the factory makes no deductions either to the width or the height.
