About Us | A&Q Custom Shutters | Orlando's Factory-Direct Manufacturer

Our Story

Family-Owned. Factory-Direct. Built with Pride.

A&Q Custom Shutters was born from a simple idea: if you build something beautiful and stand behind it completely, people will notice. For more than 30 years, that idea has guided everything we do.

What started as a small family operation in Orlando has grown into one of Florida's most respected plantation shutter manufacturers — but we've never lost the personal touch that made us who we are.

"We are the actual factory. When you buy from A&Q, you're buying directly from the people who build your shutters — no middlemen, no markups, no compromises."

Our team has been working in the window treatment industry for three generations. That depth of experience means we've seen every window type, every home style, and every customer need imaginable. And we've built a shutter for all of them.

What We Stand For

Our Core Values

These aren't just words on a wall — they're the principles that guide every shutter we build and every customer we serve.

🏆

Uncompromising Quality

Every shutter that leaves our facility meets the same exacting standard. We don't ship anything we wouldn't put in our own homes. Our lifetime warranty is our promise — not a marketing line.

🤝

Personal Service

You'll work directly with our team from your first call to your final installation. No call centers, no subcontractors. Just real people who care about your home as much as you do.

🏙️

Community First

We're Orlando locals. We live here, work here, and raise our families here. Serving this community well isn't just good business — it's personal. Every happy customer is a neighbor we've helped.

⚡

Speed Without Sacrifice

Our 2–3 week turnaround is only possible because we manufacture in-house. We never rush quality — we've just built a process that delivers both speed and craftsmanship.

💰

Fair, Transparent Pricing

Factory-direct means you pay what shutters actually cost — not what a chain store needs to charge to cover their overhead. We're always upfront about pricing with no hidden fees.

🌿

Built for Florida

Our materials are specifically chosen for Florida's climate — humidity-resistant, UV-stable, and built to look beautiful for decades in our unique environment.
