Shutter Strap Hinge

These shutter strap hinges are for "inset" shutters. Shutters are installed flush with the window frame when in the closed position (covering the window). Shutter strap size is available in 4 lengths & 4 different offsets. Shutter strap measures 1-3/4" wide at the widest point. Strap is made from 12 Ga. steel. Shutter may be lifted off of pintles after installation. Hinge and pintle are zinc chromate plated for corrosion resistance and then finished in wrought iron black for a traditional look. Offset strap hinges are sold by the pair. A pair will hang one shutter. These hinges are available in 4 different offsets (1/2",1-1/2", 2-1/4", & 3-1/4") . The offset gives a "throw" which allows the shutter to lay flat against the house when in the open position. The "throw" is approximately double the offset. For example a hinge with a 1/2" offset has about 1" of throw, a hinge with a 1-1/2" offset has about a 3" throw, etc.
