Review on πŸ”’ Ekena Millwork LVSL0004BL Lifetime Shutter Loks: The Ultimate Long-lasting Shutter Fasteners by Miro Dadee

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Bends if hit too hard

Latches work. I bought painted because we had just painted our front boards, new gutters and shutters to match. Fasteners were already very close to this color. **Things I'd like to do before I start** I didn't do a good job of measuring the depth of every hole that was already there, so I tried hammering them past the required depth. Because of this, they buckled, deformed, and didn't fit properly. I had to cut the length of each to fit each hole. So if you're using them to replace some old brackets, I recommend drilling a pre-existing hole to clear any debris left behind, or pulling an extension on a pre-existing hole. ALSO - Use some sort of thin dipstick to measure the depth of each hole so you know how much to cut off before you start hammering them.

Pros
  • We recommend using 12 pieces. for a pair over 55"
Cons
  • Can't remember
