    Accessories<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

    Installation accessories should be included in the shutter package. However, if you want to change the look of the shutters or large shutters need extra support, here are potential costs.<\/p>\n

      \n
    • $5-$20 per shutter | Decorative hardware<\/li>\n
    • $10-$15 per shutter | Support kits for large shutters<\/li>\n
    • $1.50 \u2013 $3.00 | Pack of installation screws, 2\u201d to 3\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      Permits, Inspection, and Unit Installation Costs<\/h2>\n

      Permit<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

        \n
      • $0 |<\/strong>Plantation shutter installation does not require a permit.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        Installation Labor Cost<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

        Depending on whether you hire a handyman service or window treatment specialist, the labor cost will range from $50 to $100 per hour.<\/p>\n

        That breaks down to approximately $25 to $50 per shutter.<\/p>\n

        Installation Time<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

        Doing the math from the labor cost, a pro installs 2-4 shutters per hour, depending on the shutter size.<\/p>\n

          \n
        • 2-5 hours |<\/strong> Installation of 10-15 shutters with a crew of two installers<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

          DIY or Hire a Pro<\/h2>\n

          There are two keys to successful plantation shutter installation.<\/p>\n

          1). You have to get the measurements exactly right or the shutter won\u2019t fit properly.<\/p>\n

          If the window is square, measuring is straightforward. However, if the window is arched, measuring can be quite difficult.<\/p>\n

          2). The next step, of course, is to properly install the windows. You\u2019ll need basic skills with hand tools and possibly a drill to drill pilot holes in window frames.<\/p>\n

          In short, most homeowners with decent DIY skills install their plantation shutters instead of hiring a pro. For large shutters, a second pair of hands is useful.<\/p>\n

          We\u2019ve installed more than a dozen plantation shutters with a minor hiccup or two, but no serious issues.<\/p>\n

          If you have the time, inclination and skills, go for it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
