Using a Hanging Strip for a Side Mount Shutter

Occasionally, shutters are mounted inside a window frame.  One method is to mount the shutters with a hanging strip on the side using a standard non-mortised hinge. The manufacturer generally provides a hanging strip for both sides and a light block for the top and the bottom. For each panel, two magnets and a regular hinge should be included. (Usually, the hinges are attached to the panel at the factory, however hanging strips, light blocks, and magnets come and are installed separately)

The diagram below will help you visualize how this shutter application will mount to your window opening.
