Measure for Z-frame on wood trim window without window sill

In this video we'll be discussing how to measure for a Z frame shutter application inside mount on a wood trim window with a windowsill. Your first step is to confirm whether the window tilts in for cleaning. As with hang strip, a Z frame will definitely obstruct the tilt in window from tilting in. The basic measuring approach is to first measure the window width in three places at the top, the middle and at the bottom the narrowest width as your order width. You would then measure the window opening height in three places at the left, at the center point and the right and record the shortest measurement as your order height. When specifying Z frame, the factory will automatically make proper width and height deductions off your net window opening measurements. It's also very important to measure the diagonals because if the diagonal measurements the x measurements vary by more than a quarter inch from one another, you may want to consider specifying an outside mount treatment. Although the Z frame face is wide enough to hide a lot of window irregularity, these excessive gaps can be seen from the outside of the home and some consumers may find these gaps unacceptable. If the gaps cannot be seen from outside, you may be good to go. As a final note, this application would be ordered as a frame configuration of a four sided unit with windowsill. Since this window has a windowsill.
