Take measurements across the widths noting each measurement. We will be using the smallest of the three. You can use our shutter planning guide to help.

​
Take a record of all measurements down the height . We will be using the smallest measurement of the three (3).
​
Measure down the left, measure down the middle, and measure down the right side as per diagram.
Measuring the depth for obstacles.
Make sure you measure the depth at different points throughout the reveal before choosing your shutter.
​
There needs to be a minimum of 70mm clearance between any obstacles and the edge of the window frame.
