When faced with these little annoying chores for the first time it is nice to see it done first,. Thanks now I can do it myself now. Easier thank I thought.
Thanks for the comment. Glad I could help.

Thanks a lot for the comment. Sorry I just now noticed it. I will have a look around your Amazon store and see what you have. I also have a link to the pegs. Thanks for the support.
Great tip on punching the broken fastener back in to the siding. Very helpful as pulling them out is almost impossible.
Glad it helped. Please check out my diy plsylist for more helpful tips.
So if the shutter is on siding the broken screw is only secured to the siding? All of the ones broken on mine I can just see below the face of the siding. I'll try to push method
Sir : thank you for this informative and great home owner project.
I had all the wrong tools, ready to go at pulling and twisting theses shutter keepers.
You method was so easy and worked perfectly, now I’m going to buy more and replace the ones that are faded.
Thank again

Thanks for the video with good ideas on removing my broken shutter spikes similar to yours. Here’s the question aren’t you just setting yourself up for repeat of this problem after another good storm or wind? I think it would make a lot more sense to replace the shutter spikes with some sort of deck screw or corrosion resistant aggressive screw.
Thanks for the great comment. The screw idea is a good idea. However I already had holes in the house. It would have been a lot more trouble to replace them that way. I replaced them with a better quality spike. They have been in for over a year. We have had a few high wind storms since I replaced them. I have not had any issues. You can can find them in my Amazon store front. Here is a link to the store. My store www.amazon.com/shop/survivalonabudgetmadeeasy

Thanks for the video.
You are welcome hope it helps.
Thanks for your reply. I tried that and they wont stay flush to the wall. Maybe velcro? I really like the look of them in my kitchen if I could just get'em to stay. Thanks for helping.
Sorry I could not help.
Thank you so much...I just removed mine..
You are so welcome glad I could help. Hope you stick around for more videos.
That was so easy. Thanks

I have vinyl siding like yours. I also had a storm rip a shutter off and left a few broken spikes in the siding. I tried to hammer it through with a flathead hoping it would fall, but it looks like it got stuck in something. Will I need to drill the spike now?
Thanks for the comment yes you will need to drill.
Thank you!!
You're welcome!
Done, Nice video
Thank you.
Javier trucha , very informative
Thanks hope you stick around for more videos.
This was a huge help. I was wondering what to do about the plastic nubs that broke off in the siding when I ripped them out. This is why we youtube stuff, right? Thanks!
Watch the whole video I cover that. Thanks for the comment.
awesome video, mine just flew off the brick wall
Oh no! Hope the video helps.
THANKS SIR ... GREAT LESSON ... VOLUME PERFECT
Thanks for watching hope it helps.
Thanks for this video!
I have a shutter that was installed in the wrong position. It's too low.
Really annoying.
Would I have to drill new holes to reposition it?
Would I have to seal the other holes?
Or is there a trick to repositioning that I'm unaware of?
I would silicone the old holes shut. Position your shutter where you want it. I would start with the hole from the top nearest to the window. Drill a hole put a spike in it. If you are happy with it drill hole in second upper hole put a spike in it. From there work your way down. Hope this helps.
@@SurvivalonaBudgetMadeEasy thank you so much!
@@prongfan sure thing.
Good info
Thanks hope you enjoy some more videos.
I learned from your video
Thanks glad I could help. Here is a link to my diy playlist ruclips.net/p/PL53n5Pn5w2FTels9kTd4WSlCHaFE4dT8t Thanks for the comment.
After you cut the heads off the old spikes and then push the remnants in with the awl, where do the pieces that you are pushing in go? Does it go through the sheathing and into the void where the insulation is? I'm trying to visualize how you are able to push the old pieces in while leaving space for the new spikes. What length awl do I need? Will a 3" awl work?
The original spike is through the sheathing and in the wall. When you push it threw. It goes past the exterior wall and stays there. Yes a 3 inch awl should be long enough.
@@SurvivalonaBudgetMadeEasy Excellent. Thanks for posting the video and thanks for the responses. Liked and subscribed.
Thanks for the support.
Thank you
You are welcome
My shutters are up against brick, is there any special way to get the old ones out? I don’t think I can hammer them in.
Use a drill with a drill bit about two sizes smaller then the part left in the brick. Hope this helps and great question.
@@SurvivalonaBudgetMadeEasy thanks for the video and response! I had no idea how easy it was! Cheers!
@@shawdaman2 glad I could help. You may enjoy the diy playlist.
Very helpful video. Another good tip is to use 303 surface protectant to bring shutter’s color back to life.
Thanks for the comment. Never heard of 303 surface protectant. If you have a link please share it.
I purchased two of these plastic shutter from a thrift shop for $20 and mines does not have any holes in them for the screws or any hardware for hanging and I don't have a drill. I want to use them on my small kitchen window inside, because I stay in an apt and I just like the way they look with my black appliances. What can I hang them with? Nothings working.
Best idea I got is hang them like a picture. Put couple nails in the wall and hang them. Hope this helps.
When you use these spike and mount shutters is it the vinyl siding holding the shutter and not something underneath the siding? I have RMAX foam behind my siding and nothing can attach to this foam and it is about inches thick. No plywood behind the siding. Is the siding alone enough to hold the shutters? Thanks
This is my opinion and my opinion alone. I have built house's with RMAX foam behind the siding and No plywood behind the siding in my opinion I would NOT put shutters on. I do not feel it would hold up. To be honest I don't recall any house's built that way with shutters. Hope this helps.
@@SurvivalonaBudgetMadeEasy thanks. My old shutter use screws that only grab the siding. Has worked for over 20 years. Never saw these spikes before but could not tell if the spike only grips the siding or does it grab something behind the siding as well.
I would guess just the siding. I am only guessing. Have to be honest I am surprised it lasted 20 years. If you are going to replace screws I would make sure they are the same length if not actually the same screws. Sorry I am not more of a help.
@@SurvivalonaBudgetMadeEasy Don't be sorry. I appreciate your response and guidance here. If I go with the spike I need to create a larger hole and that concerns me. Don't like how they built this house. Just trying to do the right thing. Thank you
If it was me (just my opinion) I would hire an insured license professional. That why if something goes wrong it can fall back on them. Thanks for your comments.
So, dumb question, but are the spikes intended to *only* grip in the vinyl siding, or the sheating/foam behind also?
The sheathing also.
I'm replacing my shutter pins, but one of them broke off in the wall and I can't push it through like you did on the video. HELP!!
You have to drill it. Get a drill and a drill bit a couple sizes smaller then your "pin". I thought I showed that in the video.

Done 😍
got you back
Nice One
just liked and subbed.
Sooperbbb
thanks.
What about on brick! I can’t push the old spike through
You will have to drill it out. Find the drill bit that fits in the hole and drill out. If. You have a new spike get a drill bit a size smaller and drill it out. Try one to start with then do the rest. Hope this helps. Thanks for the comment and for watching.
Ok I got them out. Now these new spikes are so flimsy they won’t stay straight enough to go all the way in.
Sorry just seen your response. If you can go to facebook and send me a picture. Survival on a Budget Made Easy is also a facebook page. I think I know the solution but not sure. If the spikes are to small for the hole you have a couple options. One you can go to a home improvement store and get shutter "screws" bigger then the holes and paint the heads. If they do not have shutter screws find stainless steel screws that will fit and paint the heads. If they do not have screws that will work you will have to get plastic wall anchors the use the screws. Some people fill the holes with a piece of wood like ceder because it will not rot. I just don not see the wood as the best option.
How do you handle broken spikes?
I thought I showed that in the video.
You did not show the part where you had to drill out a stuck spike, bc your drill was re-charging. I do not understand how you do that part -- you use a bit smaller than the hole, but then what? Do you power through the spike and crush it into dust? Does the drill somehow help pull out old spike? I don't understand the principle. Could you please show that part? Some of your subscribers are female, LOL.
It just depends on the wall. For example brick it will curl around the drill bit. OSB it will more then likely fall into wall. Use a bit smaller then the spike. Sorry for the delay in a response I have been sick the last couple days.
What the name of that tool he used to push the peg in at 2:26 seconds
Awl
How do you keep water from seeping in shutters screw holes?
I never had that issue. And to be honest I have never know of anyone to have that issue.
Seems to me water can leak behind and enter into where the spikes goes into the house.
@@ms.twisteesicecreamtreats7533 sorry I gave you the best answer I got.
If your that worried about water……….shoot a little silicone into the hole before inserting the peg
Do these go into the sheathing? Or just sididng
Into sheathing.
My new ones keep bending when I try to put them in
Ok this is going to sound like a bad joke. However your hole is to small. Go 1 size bigger bit. It may only be a 1/64 to small. If not maybe a 1/32. Just increase hole size a little at a time. Hope this helps.
Pushing the broken pin inside.!?? Won’t it block the new pin.?
Nope.
❤️❤️❤️
thanks
like my friend :D
Thank you gave like back.
What color are these shutters?
I think hunter green.
Thank you!
You are welcome.
So you have to break or snap the pins off, then fish them out, to get them out of the siding. Wow. Wonder who thought of that brilliant idea?
Thanks for the comment. Hope you stick around for more videos.
Mine is on my second floor so I have to go out on my roof... 😩
Why not use a ladder? Be safe.
Why cut the old off? If you are just going to put new ones in? Couldn't you just push the old ones back in?
You have to cut the tops off to push them threw. They are very difficult to pull out.
What did you say?
About what? Turn on close captions.
Survival on a Budget Made Easy I just heard mumbles the whole time sounded like you had a mouth full of marbles 🥴
Just turn on cc.
I'm here too get instructions and then go get the job done ...
Thanks for stopping by. Best of luck to you. Thanks again.
Hand hammer!
Yep
I don't think cutting and hammering old plastic spikes back into the holes is a good way to create space for new ones...
Ok
WORD OF CAUTION: WATCH OUT FOR WASPS BEFORE YOU START TAKING THOSE PEGS OFF. WASPS OFTEN MAKE NESTS BEHIND SHUTTERS.
Very true.
Good evening. Here is my response to this video: ruclips.net/video/XloyD8ZHK3g/видео.html
Hey man thanks for another great video. It rained for days now. Before the rain we had strong winds that did the original damage. My neighbors have had damage. The next town over had water rescues.I was actually think of you when I was doing this video. All great questions. If you let me download your video I will respond like I did before. If you want I will share the video. When I do the response I will try to add pictures of some of the flooding going on. More rain in the forecast. I am not comfortable telling you were I live but here is a news video. I will tell you I am in the red area. We are setting records for rain fall. Thanks for the video and take care my friend. abcnews.go.com/US/east-coast-flood-watch-wet-stormy-pattern-threatens/story?id=56959634
So you put those plastic screws back in there that failed the first time? In the same hole............🤔
No you are wrong about why they failed. The holes have nothing to do with it. Watch again.
