The Message
Our Founder
A.B. Walters, Founder and Chairman of the Board of SENOX CORPORATION, entered the seamless gutter industry with the purchase of his first gutter machine in 1972.
As an installer, he became frustrated with the poor product quality and limited color selection available for gutters and accessories. From this frustration, a vision emerged, and Walters established a business to finally offer solutions to the problems he and, most assuredly, others had encountered over the years.
While many competitive supply stores aim to serve a wide range of customers with various products, he made a deliberate choice to concentrate on excelling in a single area.
His philosophy centers on the idea that when a task needs to be completed to the highest standard, seeking the guidance of a specialist is essential.
With this in mind, A.B. has strategically positioned Senox Corporation as a leading expert in the seamless gutter industry.

Our Focus
The SENOX brand slogan “Gutters. That’s All We Do” represents our commitment to the seamless gutter industry. SENOX concentrates all its efforts solely on designing, manufacturing, and delivering the finest seamless gutter products in the world.
By focusing solely on gutters instead of offering a wide variety of building materials like some of our competitors, we position ourselves as the experts in the industry. This specialization allows us to develop a deeper understanding of gutter systems, providing our customers with premium products and personalized service that they won’t find elsewhere.
Streamlining our operations around one product category helps us reduce inventory costs, simplify processes, and focus our marketing efforts more effectively.
By honing in on gutters, we can stay ahead of trends, respond quickly to customer needs, and establish ourselves as the go-to solution for all things gutter-related, setting us apart from broader, less focused competitors.
“We service the seamless gutter industry. That’s All We Do. If it has to do with gutters, we’re either doing it, thinking about doing it, or planning to do it. We’re thinking about gutters all the time.”
