Family-owned and operated in Stuart, with three generations of window treatment industry experience.
Your patio and your style
An awning extends out from the house to shade an area from above. We help you plan how wide it should be, how far it should extend and which fabric works with your outdoor space.
Extend the awning when you want shade and retract it when you want the space open. Powered controls make that change easy to manage.
We'll explain which lighting or sensor options are available for the chosen model, what they add to the quote and when the awning needs to be retracted.
Tom Shinn grew up in the window treatment industry and started The Shutter Factory in 2018. Our family-owned and operated business carries three generations of experience into helping you choose. For your awning, we start with where you like to sit and when the sun reaches it, then work through the fit and fabric with you.
Picture your favorite time outside
An outdoor table, a pair of lounge chairs or a deck beside the house each needs its own shade plan. We'll look at the sun's direction and the mounting position so you understand where the awning's shade will fall.
Width and projection mean how wide the awning is and how far it extends. We plan those dimensions around your furniture and the space needed to move around it.
We check the supporting structure and clearance around doors, roof edges and gutters. The slope of the extended awning matters to the fit, too.
See the colors outdoors against your exterior finishes. We'll also explain cleaning, controls and the model's weather-use instructions.
Let us work through the fit
We assess the mounting location, clearances and power access, then explain the size, fabric, frame and controls in your quote. At installation, we check extension and retraction and demonstrate everyday operation.
We'll go through the weather limits, care and warranty information for the awning you choose.

Size, fabric, mounting hardware, motor and accessories all affect the price. Site access and any required electrical work also need to be included in the scope.
We'll measure your space and talk through the options before preparing a quote. Tell us the area you want shaded and the budget you have in mind.
A few helpful answers
It can be a good option when you want overhead shade that retracts. We assess the mounting structure, sun direction and wind exposure, then help you decide whether an awning suits the way you use the patio.
The size and reach, fabric, motor and mounting work all affect the installed price. We measure the space and explain the options before quoting your project.
Retract it before conditions exceed the manufacturer's operating limits and follow the exact model's instructions. A retractable shade awning is not hurricane protection, and sensors don't replace storm preparation.
The product, weather exposure and care all affect service life. We'll explain the selected fabric, frame and motor warranties and the recommended cleaning and inspection routine.
