How do you fix a shutter

julieannearthur

Our shutters have the wooden rod in front to anchor each shutter and to open and close the shutters. A few shutter planks have broken from the rod. How do we fix it?They are linked with 2 U shaped nails that are linked together and one nailed into the shutter plank the other nailed into the rod. The nail has falled out.

It is best to contact the nearest window covering dealer/professional in your area for repairing the shutter tilt bars.

hello bonnielynn75 and THANK YOU! your comment put a smile on my face re the red on the interior side of the door. It IS red on the inside as well, he insisted on that when we purchased it. no one here has it red on the inside and I wanted it to be white on the inside. do you see my dilemma?;) I agree with everything you are saying, I suppose this is the reason why so far I was not 100% sure about the black for the door either, although I like black...Agree, there is too much wall and I find the house to be looking a bit 'bland' and would like to change that. I LOVE shutters, but read somewhere that you never put shutters on wide windows, so got unsure about that, too...but perhaps just the one as I stated earlier. Would the color on that shutter be the same as the door (if I ever settle on a door color)? Unfortunately window boxes are not an option as we have quite a few cats and they may be used as litter boxes;) please don't tell me to get rid of the cats;)... Regarding the stoop (entrance) : we need to add another step (made of cement) on top of the existing step: it was removed when the new door was fitted. We were thinking of putting slate tiles or something dark to match the roof, if that makes any sense.... It is porous cement so unsuitable for painting, I think. What place in Ireland did you visit, we are close to the Irish Sea in the country surrounded by sheep;)...

HI -- I put a picture on my idea book for you (last one) . I think something like that would look great and not visually close things in . You would have to have the glass in a sliding by pass panels rather than folding . You could also have the glass frameless rather than the thin black framing , but I like the black for the interest it adds.

Glass surround on shelf? Add plants to soak up overspray? Maybe have a carpenter extend out that wall so you can tile it flush with tub enclosure?You're right that this is a challenge. Without ripping it out, I can't see any great options. I worry that water damage over the long run would cost more than a remodel now.

Gosh, I've returned after a week travelling for work to loads more suggestions - thanks all! To respond specifically: - the house faces south so gets the lovely morning (and in the uk, sometimes the only) sun. - the husband has avoided putting plants in the planters due to maintenance and they're generally twee so comments here have confirmed to me that they will be coming out - love the idea of wooden boxes with the spiky plants and grasses - also like the concept of taking out the grass/bed/tree in front completely out and replacing with slabs - yes to lightening the windows - to the Barn company, I honestly don't mind the advice and I'd never seen sloping garage roofs. - nicking ideas from landscaping of new builds....great idea! - finally, Helen Scholes, I'm embarrassed about the spelling of kerb. Had no idea! Thanks again all.
