Abstract

An adjustable shutter assembly is provided in which a pair of opposed vertical frame supports carry a plurality of spaced laterally extending louvers journaled at their ends and pivotally mounted in said supports with an actuator rod shiftably coupling the louvers. Vertical adjustment is enabled using legs which are broken off to desired length, and a boot which grips the lower end of the assembly. A shutter assembly hanging strip having an adjustable shoe at its lower end is also provided so that the assembly can be hung as desired at the sides of a window, the shoe matching the length of the hanging strip to the length of the assembly. The hanging strip includes hinge mounting means at the side of the strip to accommodate lateral adjustment of the shutter assembly.
