Installing functional shutters that actually swing closed? You’ll need proper offset hinges like this Ekena Millwork set. This pack includes four hinges (two pairs) with a 1-1/16\ offset, which positions your shutter slightly away from the wall so it can clear the window casing when closed. The design is historically accurate and adds elegant dimension to your home’s exterior.
Each hinge is about 6-1/4\ wide and 6-1/8\ long including the pintle (the pin that the hinge rotates on). They’re made from sturdy metal with a classic finish and come with installation screws. Works with wood, vinyl, composite, or most other shutter materials.
These aren’t for fake “fixed” shutters – they’re for real operable shutters that you can actually use for light control, privacy, or storm protection. Installation is straightforward: attach the hinge to the shutter, then mount the pintle to the house. Give your home authentic curb appeal with hardware that’s as functional as it is beautiful.
