About the Suffolk Leaf Pintle
The leaf pintle mounts inside the window opening on the jamb rather than on the face of the house, which is how shutters were often hung on masonry homes. It comes as a handed pair, one left and one right.
Suffolk is Lynn Cove's heavier colonial style. Every Suffolk hinge and pintle shares a 1/2" pin, so any Suffolk hinge drops onto any Suffolk pintle, and a matched hinge pair supports up to 75 lb. Pieces are galvanized or 18-8 stainless steel under a black powder coat, and Lynn Cove ships them with stainless wood screws.
Choosing the offset
Offset is the distance from the mounting surface to the center of the pin. The hinge offset plus the pintle offset must clear any trim, brick mould or siding between the shutter and the wall so the shutter closes flat.
- Flat trim or none: a flat or small-offset hinge on a 3/4" pintle is usually enough.
- Brick mould or thick casing: step up to 1 3/4" or 2 1/4", or use a brick-mount pintle.
- Deep reveals or stone: the longest offsets or an adjustable lag pintle.

Questions
Do I need left and right versions?
Each order is a handed pair, one left and one right, which is what one hinge position on a two-shutter window needs.
Which hinges and pintles does it work with?
Any Lynn Cove Suffolk-style hinge or pintle. The whole Suffolk line shares a 1/2" pin. New York style hardware uses a smaller 3/8" pin and will not fit.
Galvanized or stainless steel?
Lynn Cove recommends galvanized steel for homes at least 20 miles from the coast and stainless steel for coastal homes and storm shutters. Both carry the same black powder coat.
How fast does it ship?
In-stock hardware usually ships within the next business day. Shipping charges for hardware are shown in your cart before you check out.
