Love my new plantation shutters
Paul came out to us for the measure and quote. He was full of information and suggestions.
Ben came out to install the 2 shutters. He was very quick and did a great job. He also help with some questions about another window.
We did have to wait awhile for them to come, due to covid 19. We received email during this time with update, which was very much appreciated.
Very please from start to finish.

Fabulous choice of supplier
I found FD fabulous to deal with from beginning to end. Prompt, honest and top notch product.
My only criticism would be that I did not find you in a google search. My neighbour told me about you. I had 3 other quotes and got yours as an after thought as your company name does not lend itself to what you actually supply. Factory direct is far too broad a name.
But once I did get on board with you...100%!

Brilliant job
Our landing blinds were installed last week. We were caught up in the virus delays so were surprised they arrived when they did. Our installer was efficient, friendly and very tidy. They look fabulous and have blocked out the burning westerly sun. Our experience with Factory Direct Shutters has been exemplary and I have no hesitation recommending them.

Fantastic, great product and price
Fantastic, great product and price. The waiting time was good considering the Covid-19 situation. As the product was coming from China it was expected to take much longer than it did. Installed quickly and professionally.

Do not use!
- Poor quality and service. Job completion was 1.5 years after it commenced.
- Poor installation of blinds. Falling apart.
- extremely bad customer service. Had to constantly call to have them return to fix our installation. Their response was to post us screws and tell us to fix it ourselves.
- left our shade on ground depreciating with sun for weeks before installation.
- completed new build and the installation of our blinds were the most stressful part.
- avoid using this company at all costs. Please see google reviews. A lot of similar stories.

Increased functionality
Our new extendable awning will shade our deck and keep the surface cooler allowing increased use during the hot summer days. I found the response to the Facebook info request professional and timely and in all other stages. The installation was professionally done and very happy with the fixing of the awning.

Great looking product at a better price
We had our shutters installed yesterday, & it had made an immediate difference for the better. The shutters look awesome, & was a fraction of the cost that other companies were asking. Now looking at what other windows we need to have shutters installed. Definitely would recommend Factory Direct.

Amazing Transformation of our Home
Our shutters were installed in the downstairs area of our home yesterday and we cannot believe the transformation and difference they have made. This was made possible by the staff we dealt with from the quoting stage to order confirmation and continual updates with shipping delays (COVID19) and to installation. Amazing service and a great end product.
We will definitely be using FDS again when ready to do the upstairs area of our home.

I would thoroughly recommend Factory Direct Shutters, Awnings and Blinds. Their staff from beginning to end, taking the order, measuring and fitting shutters and blinds were amazing. The products are excellent and they bent over backwards to keep me informed of when to expect my products.

Glare is a problem for my husband, the Awnings are working out really well, he can now spend more time on the patio.
We have been satisfied with our whole experience with Factory Direct, right from the first call, to have the measure up done to the installation. The process done very professionally.

Best price found & great product
I shopped around and this company gave us the best price. They are quick to come out and measure and were very organised and easy to communicate with. Even with the COVID19 and the delay with that they still managed to keep us up to date with what was happening with our shutters. Installation was quick and left zero mess behind. Would highly recommend.
Thanks guys!

Our Shutter Experience!
From the day we rang Factory Direct Shutters we were treated to prompt friendly service.
They sent an email to confirm the reps name who came when stated and we were very happy with his Quote for 4 rooms. Unfortunately our delivery date was delayed due to the Coronavirus but they kept us updated along the way, then when they had arrived the fitter sent us a text with time & date. Prompt professional service all the way.
The shutters look amazing- we a soo happy. Thanks Guys.

Michelle V.asked
Hi can I ask why your company requires full payment before installation I understand 50% but confused as to why 100%. We have recently renovated and all the contractors we have used have never required full payment until the job is inspected and fully complete.
1 answer
Justin R.Factory Direct Shutters, Awnings & Blinds
Hi Michelle, thanks for your question. Generally the difference between buying from us and contracting a tradesman to perform work at your home, is you are purchasing a product not a service. purchasing blinds & awnings is similar to buying furniture, although many furniture stores require payment in full at the time of purchase. We ask for a 50% deposit and payment prior to installation. We do offer the ability to pay our installer when he arrives with your product although most people tend to want to pay prior. We also offer an amazing after sales service. Once you're product is delivered and installed our professional team contact you to ensure you are completely satisfied. Our business has been built on happy customers telling their friends about us. If you would like to discuss further please feel free to contact our service team. You can also ask for me, I'm the owner of Factory Direct Shutters and my name is Justin, Thanks Michelle,
