Should My Boise Home Use an Inside Shutter Mount or Outside Shutter Mount?
At your in-home shutter consultation, you’ll need to decide how your plantation shutters are put in. You could opt for an inside mount, which sits inside the window recess. Or you can install an outside mount, where your shutter frame is affixed outside the window ingress and is hidden by decorative trim.
Sometimes the option of an inside mount or outside mount is dictated by your window type. But sometimes the option is yours to match your design plan. So, when should you utilize an inside or an outside mount?
When You Should Utilize an Inside Mount in Your Boise Home
If your window can take an inside mount, the choice for this type of frame is mainly cosmetic. However, windows that aren’t evenly squared may want to stick with with a Z-frame. The overhang on a Z-frame will mask the imperfections of the windows. The Z-frame is also nice for windows that can be tilted. L-frames function best when your window currently has decorative trim or you want to have a minimalist look for your window.
When You Should Utilize An Outside Mount in Your Boise Home
If your windows are hollow and lack a deep frame, you will have to install an outside mount. They also work well when you need some decorative trim around the window to help it pop a little more. Many unique windows with uncommon window frames, like ovals or arches, will need an outside mount, and also shutters for french and patio doors.
