Creating an inviting and functional outdoor space doesn’t have to take a massive renovation. One of the most effective ways to enhance your patio or deck is by incorporating awnings. Let’s explore how retractable awnings can help transform your outdoor living area into your personal paradise.

 

What are Retractable Awnings?

Retractable awnings are an innovative solution for providing shade and protection from the elements. They work by utilizing articulated arms that efficiently furl and unfurl the awning. This creates a comfortable shaded area, perfect for enjoying your outdoor space.

 

A Variety of Choices

One of the most exciting aspects is the variety of fabric colors and patterns you can choose from. This allows you to express your personal style and complement your home’s exterior. Not only that, but the color is applied throughout the yarn rather than merely on the surface, ensuring that your awning won’t fade, staying vibrant and eye-catching for years to come.

Once you’ve settled on the fabric, you can also pick the color of the awning’s frame. With choices ranging from beige to white to bronze, you can use the color that best compliments your home.

 

Superior Construction

Our retractable awnings are specially constructed with long-lasting durability, to ensure they can withstand the elements and provide reliable shade for years to come. The shoulder attachments are crafted from high-quality extruded aluminum, which enhances the awning’s strength, and also improves the overall stability of the structure.

Not only that, but aluminum is resistant to rust and corrosion, making it an excellent choice for the outdoors. And our innovative double aircraft cables prevent any sagging in the fabric, creating a smooth and taut appearance.

 

An Assortment of Optional Add-Ons

The customization doesn’t stop there. Our retractable awnings feature several optional add-ons.

    • Front Screens: These screens can be added to the front of your awning, and extend 5 feet down, creating a barrier against the sun and pesky insects.
    • Side Screens: If your outdoor area is exposed to sideways wind, side screens can help provide extra protection. They block gusts and 90% of harmful UV rays.
    • Wind Sensors: For those who live in breezy areas, wind sensors are a valuable addition. These sensors automatically retract your awning when wind speeds get too high, preventing damage and ensuring your awning remains in top condition.

These optional enhancements can significantly improve your awning, allowing you to enjoy your outdoor space in all kinds of weather.
