What Jansen Shutters & Windows does

Jansen Shutters & Windows (operating as Jansen Shutters & Specialties) is a privately held, family-owned Florida contractor founded in 1973 by Phil Jansen and headquartered in North Venice, FL. The company designs, manufactures, and installs hurricane protection products — including rolling shutters, accordion shutters, armor screens, impact windows, Bahama and colonial shutters, and clear storm panels — alongside an outdoor living product line (motorized insect screens, solar shades, pergolas, awnings), a windows and doors category (impact and non-impact windows, sliding glass, French, entry, and garage doors), and a custom aluminum fabrication business (estate gates, railings, carports, ornamental ironwork, Elite Rooms). Manufacturing is performed in-house at the North Venice facility, with proprietary hardware including TC-Ultracote stainless steel fasteners and an exclusive recessed floor track for accordion shutters. Products are distributed through direct sales (hurricane specialists conducting complimentary home evaluations), inside phone/email sales, a walk-in showroom, and digital self-service lead capture, with no third-party resellers.

The business operates primarily across the Florida Gulf Coast from Fort Myers to Tarpon Springs, with stated expansion into East Coast Florida, and is led by Phil Jansen alongside his children Travis Jansen (founder of the hurricane protection business line launched in 2002) and Ashley Jansen (founder of Operation StormStrong, a post-storm community volunteer initiative launched in May 2025). Revenue is generated primarily through one-time project sales and installation, with a secondary professional services revenue stream from post-installation repair at $235/hour plus optional maintenance agreements. Key technology and product partnerships include Somfy for smart-home automation, Armor Screen for hurricane-rated mesh, and WinDoor, Jeld-Wen, CWS, and PGT for windows and doors. The company holds BBB A+ accreditation, serves 'thousands of homeowners, business owners, and builders,' and has been operating continuously for over 50 years without any disclosed external funding, acquisitions, or ownership changes.
