Fitting a sign to shutterbox

[Denise Goodfellow]

I think my stepson uses self tapping screws

[David Mitchell]

yeah denise i think its probably as simple as that just incase i was missing something.

i was thinking countersunk self tapping screws then fit trim over it to hide screwheads

[Kevin Flowers]

If you want a nice trimmed finish look use some 25mm ali angle put rivets through the side, even a mill finished angle gives a nice finish

He says he puts vinyl coloured circles over the countersunk screws.

Also keep away from the sides as the frame uses thick steel.

Hope that helps.

I know if he fits on his own he uses double sided tape to stick the panel to the box before using screws

[Kevin Flowers]

The shutter box itself is folded panel end plates are only 3-5mm steel which drills easy with a decent drill bit. Trim makes a sign instead of a panel stuck on a box
