Summarize the following:
You will need 1 pilot hole in each corner of each shutter. How far away you make the holes from the top, bottom, and side edges is up to you, but make sure that they are all even.  Use a regular drill and drill bit for this. Match the size of the drill bit to the screws that you will be using. Skip this step if you are using hinged shutters. Set the hinges against the left side edge of your first shutter. Use a regular drill and drill bit to drill the pilot holes through the screw holes. Insert the screws, then screw them into place. Repeat this step for the right side edge of your second shutter.  You can mark the pilot holes with a pencil first, set aside the hinges, then drill the holes. You will need 2 hinges per shutter: 1 towards the top edge and 1 towards the bottom edge. Skip this step if you are using stationary (decorative) shutters. If you are attaching stationary shutters, start with just 1 shutter for now. Use a level to ensure that it is hanging straight; the air bubble should be between the 2 lines in the middle of the glass tube. If you are attaching your shutters with hinges, set both of them into the window frame in the closed position. Use wooden shims to keep them in place. You can do this with a skewer dipped in paint or with a hammer drill and a masonry drill bit. If you are using the latter, choose a drill bit that is the same size as the screw hole.  You don't need to drill all the way into the brick wall; you just want to scuff the surface. If you are using pintle hinges, you will need to slide the pintle under the hinge and place it against the wall first. Do all of the pilot holes on your first hinge or shutter, then move onto the second shutter. If you set your hinged shutters in place with wooden shims, you can leave them in place; just remove the pintle so that you can see the pilot holes.

Summary:
Drill pilot holes for the screws into stationary shutters. Attach the hinges to shutters that open and close. Place the first shutter against the wall. Mark the brick through your hinge or shutter pilot holes. Finish all of the pilot holes, then set the shutters aside.
