Why APS

The 3 things nobody else in Florida tells you about plantation shutters.

After 30+ years of fixing problems other companies caused, we know exactly what goes wrong with shutters — and how to make sure it never happens to you.

“How long will I really wait?”

Big-box and franchise companies outsource overseas — 8 to 13+ week waits. Our shutters are built in Palm City. Typical turnaround: 2–3 weeks. No middlemen. No bait-and-switch.

“Will it off-gas plastic fumes?”

Most “wood-look” shutters sold in Florida are PVC or composite — glued-together plastic that off-gasses VOCs. We only use real wood, finished with zero-VOC waterborne paint.

“What happens when one breaks?”

PVC and composite shutters are glued together — when one piece breaks, the whole panel is trashed. Our real-wood shutters are fully repairable. We fix most issues on-site.

What Sets Us Apart

Why Florida homeowners choose the maker, not a middleman.

Real wood, often for less than big-box vinyl

Because we manufacture in-house and sell direct, there’s no importer or middleman markup. Most homeowners are surprised our custom real-wood shutters come in at or below what the big-box stores charge for imported vinyl.

Milled in our Palm City shop, not shipped overseas

Every louver, frame, and panel is cut, sanded, and finished by our team. Premium kiln-dried hardwoods engineered for Florida humidity — no warping, fading, or chipping — and jobs turn around 2–3x faster.

The same team measures, builds, and installs

No subcontractors, no franchise, no handoffs. The craftsman who measures your home is the one who builds and installs your shutters — so someone takes personal ownership of your project.

Every window is custom — even the tricky ones

Arches, sliding glass doors, French doors, octagons — we manufacture in-house, so nothing is off the menu. If it has a window opening, we can build a shutter that fits it perfectly.

Plantation shutter FAQ

Answers before you book.

Straight answers to the questions Treasure Coast and Palm Beach County homeowners ask us most.

Who makes custom plantation shutters in Palm City, Florida?

Architectural Plantation Shutters, Inc. (AP Shutters) builds custom plantation shutters in its own factory at 3475 SW Palm City School Ave, Palm City, FL 34990. The same team measures your windows, makes the shutters from real wood, finishes them in-house and installs them. We have served Treasure Coast and Palm Beach County homeowners since 1991.

Are your plantation shutters real wood?

Yes. Every shutter we sell is built from real, kiln-dried hardwood in our Palm City shop. We do not sell PVC, vinyl or composite "faux wood" shutters. Real wood can be repaired, sanded and repainted, so a damaged louver or panel is fixed instead of thrown away.

How long does it take to get custom plantation shutters?

Most orders are built and installed within 2–3 weeks of placing the order. Because we manufacture in Palm City instead of ordering from an overseas factory, there is no import wait. We confirm your install date at the in-home consultation, based on project size and the current shop schedule.

How much do plantation shutters cost on the Treasure Coast?

Price depends on the size, number and shape of your windows. Our 2026 Florida cost guide estimates roughly $380–$420 per standard window opening for a typical whole-home project, with measuring, tax and standard installation included. Arches, sliding glass doors and other specialty shapes cost more. You get an exact written quote after a free in-home measurement.

Can you make shutters for arched or unusually shaped windows?

Yes. Specialty shapes are a core part of our work: half-rounds and full arches, circles, octagons, triangles, and angled or peaked windows such as stairwell transoms. We measure the exact opening and build the shutter to that geometry in our shop, so the frame follows the window instead of leaving gaps.

Do you make plantation shutters for sliding glass doors and French doors?

Yes. For sliding glass doors we build bypass shutters that slide on a track: tilt the louvers for light, slide the panels aside to walk through, or close them for full privacy. French doors get panels that open and close with each door.

Do real wood shutters hold up in Florida humidity?

Yes, when they are built and finished correctly. We use kiln-dried hardwood, which has most of its moisture removed before milling, and we seal every surface with a zero-VOC waterborne paint finish in our own paint booth. That finish is what keeps the wood stable in humid rooms like bathrooms and in coastal homes.

What areas do you serve?

We measure and install throughout Martin County (Palm City, Stuart, Jensen Beach, Hobe Sound, Sewall's Point), St. Lucie County (Port St. Lucie, Tradition, St. Lucie West, Fort Pierce), northern Palm Beach County (Jupiter, Tequesta, Palm Beach Gardens, Wellington, West Palm Beach) and Indian River County (Vero Beach).

What warranty comes with your shutters?

Our wood shutters carry a limited lifetime warranty. Because we build them locally, service comes from the same company that made them: if a louver, hinge or tilt rod needs attention, we fix it on-site or in our shop.

Do you repair or reinstall shutters you didn't make?

Yes. We repair loose louvers, broken tilt rods, failed hinges and damaged panels, including shutters other companies built. We also remove, store, refit and reinstall shutters for renovations, interior painting, window replacements and moves.

What happens at the free in-home consultation?

A member of our team visits with real samples, helps you choose louver size, frame style and color, measures every window and gives you a written quote on the spot. There is no charge and no obligation. See what to expect, step by step.

Why buy from a local manufacturer instead of a big-box store or franchise?

Buying direct from the factory removes the importer and franchise markup, cuts the wait from the 8–13+ weeks typical of imported shutters to 2–3 weeks, and means the people who measure your home are the people who build and install your shutters. If something needs adjusting later, you call the shop that made it. Comparing companies? Read our guide to choosing the best plantation shutters.
