Please take note that some of these frames are for inside the window frame only, and if you order these on an outside mount shutter, it will delay processing while we confirm these specifications with you.
If a frame shows measurements, this is intended to show you it will work for you- there are tolerances where sizes may not be exact, but are within acceptable tolerances.
