My aunt in another city wants to replace plastic shutters that are about
15 years old. She doesn't know how to get them down. Sliding a knife
behind a shutter, she can feel where the screws are, but there is no screw
head or plug on the face of the shutter.

Was there a way plastic shutters were hung a few years ago without putting
a fastener through the face?


This is a "I think I recall" reply.

I think there was. You attached a retainer to the house and the shutter
snapped over it. The advice to pry on it with something protecting the
non-brick house from the pry bar is about as good as the advice is going to
get.

Let me add, wear eye protection while prying. That old plastic may shatter.
