Measuring for Specific Outside Mount Openings Using the L-Frame

L-frame: Outside Mount On Top of Sill

  1. Measure inside width and height in three places. Use the largest measurements.
  2. Consider adjustments listed for your chosen shutter or frame.
  3. Check for frame and louver clearance. Specify outside mount with 2, 3 or 4-sided frame.

 

 

L-frame: Outside Mount With or Without Window Sill

  1. Establish Point C using a straight edge.
  2. Measure the inside width of Distance 1 (from A to C) and Distance 2 (from B to C). Use the largest measurement for both. Consider the listed deduction.
  3. Measure the inside height in three places. Use the smallest measurement. Consider the listed height addition as you measure.
  4. To accommodate a sill, the sill projection must be smaller than the maximum listed at right. Installers must trim the inside vertical frames to clear sills.

Please note: The filler shown at left is not supplied by Elite. It may be obtained at a local hardware store or home centre.
