Retractable awnings for patios and decks

Shade when you want it, open sky when you don't. Motorized or manual, sized to your wall and installed by our own crew.

Operation

Motorized or manual

Both roll out the same shade. The difference is how you open it.

Motorized

Press a button on the remote and the awning rolls out or back in. We wire the motor during the install.

Best for

  • Wide awnings
  • Daily use
  • Anyone who wants it easy

Manual

A hand crank opens and closes it. Simple, no wiring, and a lower price.

Best for

  • Smaller awnings
  • Occasional use
  • Walls without power nearby
Where it goes

For decks and for patios

An awning mounts to the wall of the house, so the shade starts right at your door.

  • Retractable awning over a wooden deck at dusk

    Decks

    Cool down a deck that gets full afternoon sun without adding posts.

  • Retractable awning over a patio lounge

    Patios

    Shade for the table and the lounge chairs, rolled away when the sun goes down.

  • Louvered pergola with lights at dusk

    Need cover in the rain?

    A louvered pergola closes fully and stays out in any weather.

Made to measure

What you choose

We go through each of these with you during the site visit.

  • Width

    Measured to the wall or the deck it covers, so the shade lines up with the space you use.

  • Projection

    How far the awning reaches out from the wall, up to 10 feet. We size it to cover your seating area.

  • Fabric and color

    Pick a fabric color that works with your house. We go over the options during the visit.

  • Your choice

    Motor or hand crank

    Remote control, or a manual crank if you prefer something simple.

Pergola or awning?

We install both, so we'll recommend the one that fits how you use the space.

Retractable awning

Attaches to the house and rolls away when you do not need it. Lower cost, lighter look.

Best for

  • Shade on sunny days
  • Space right next to the house
  • A smaller budget

Louvered pergola

A permanent roof with louvers that open, tilt and close. Works in rain, has lights built in.

Best for

  • Outdoor living in most weather
  • Freestanding spots in the yard
  • Adding screens, fans or heaters
Pricing

How much does a retractable awning cost?

Price depends on three things. We confirm it in writing after the measurement.

Example

About $3,500

for a 12 × 10 ft awning, before installation. A ballpark only: your price depends on size and options.

  • Width. Wider awnings need longer arms and more fabric.
  • Projection. How far it reaches out from the wall.
  • Motor or manual. A motor adds to the price and to the comfort.

FAQ

Retractable awning questions

Still not sure? Call 267-612-4055 and talk to the people who will do the work.

How much does a retractable awning cost?

As an example, a 12 × 10 ft awning runs about $3,500 before installation. That is a ballpark. Your price depends on the width, how far it reaches out and whether you want a motor. We give you a firm price after measuring on site.

How far can an awning reach out?

Up to 10 feet from the wall. If you need to cover a deeper space, a louvered pergola is the better fit.

How long does it take?

Production takes about two and a half months after the deposit. Installation is quick once it arrives.

Motorized or manual: which one should I get?

If you'll open it most days, a motor is worth it: one button and it's out. A manual crank costs less and has no wiring.

Can I leave it out in the rain or wind?

An awning is for sun and light weather. Roll it in for storms and strong wind. If you want cover in the rain too, look at a louvered pergola.

Is installation included in the price?

The example price is for the awning only. Installation is quoted after we measure, so your final estimate covers both. We mount the awning to your wall, wire the motor if you choose one and show you how to use it.

What warranty do you offer?

Five years on the structure, the motors and our installation work.
