What are sill plate and tilt rod references?

Sill plate and tilt rod are different shutter component references. A sill plate is a sill-related bottom or frame-support reference, while a tilt rod connects louvers so they can move together.

These items should be reviewed separately in RFQs. A tilt rod is part of the louver control system, while sill plate details relate to the bottom opening or frame condition.

How sill plate and tilt rod parts fit into a shutter program

Sill plate details can matter when the existing window sill affects the bottom of the frame or support condition. Photos or drawings of the opening help confirm the requirement.

Tilt rods, also called shutter rods in some markets, link louvers for coordinated movement. RFQs should state whether the inquiry is for sill plate, tilt rod, or both.
