FAQs
Are these shutters functional (i.e., can they open and close)?
No, these Ekena Millwork shutters are designed for decorative purposes only and are fixed in place.
What material are the shutters made from?
The shutters are made from high-quality, durable vinyl with a crisp woodgrain texture.
How do I clean these shutters?
Clean with a soft cloth dampened with water and a mild soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
Do the shutters come as a pair?
Yes, the product description indicates they are sold in a pair and include installation hardware.
What does 'nominal dimensions' mean for these shutters?
Nominal dimensions mean the stated sizes are approximate. Actual measurements may vary slightly, typically within +/- 1/2 inch.
Can these shutters be painted?
While the through-color construction is designed for longevity, if you wish to paint them, use a high-quality exterior latex paint. Always test on an inconspicuous area first and ensure the surface is clean and properly prepared.
What is the warranty on these shutters?
Information regarding specific warranty periods is not provided in the product description. Please refer to Ekena Millwork's official website or contact their customer service for detailed warranty information.
Troubleshooting
Shutters appear slightly different in size than ordered.
This is due to the nominal sizing of the product. Actual dimensions may vary by +/- 1/2 inch. Measure the shutters upon arrival to confirm they fall within this tolerance.
Color fading over time.
While designed to be colorfast, extreme prolonged UV exposure in some climates might eventually cause slight fading. Ensure the shutters are cleaned periodically as per care instructions. Contact Ekena Millwork customer support if significant fading occurs outside of expected weathering.
Hardware seems insufficient or incorrect.
Verify that all included hardware components are present. If any parts are missing or appear damaged, contact Ekena Millwork customer support for replacements.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup:
- Preparation: Ensure the installation area on your exterior wall is clean and dry.
- Marking: Use a level and tape measure to mark the desired positions for the shutters.
- Hardware Attachment: The shutters come with Shutter-Lok's and matching screws. Follow the included instructions to attach the hardware to the shutter and then to your wall. Typically, this involves pre-drilling pilot holes and securing the shutter.
- Final Check: Ensure shutters are securely fastened and level.
Compatibility:
These shutters are designed for exterior mounting on most standard home sidings, including wood, vinyl, and stucco. Ensure your mounting surface is solid enough to support the shutters securely. They are intended for decorative use and do not provide storm protection.
Care:
Cleaning is simple. Use a soft cloth dampened with water and mild soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents, as these can damage the vinyl finish. Rinse with clean water and allow to air dry.
