Retractable Awnings with Screens provide superior sun protection without impacting the view. The adjustable valance can be lowered up to 5′, using a gear or motor, to solve any sun exposure problem.

The Retractable Awning Elbow is a critical system component for keeping the fabric taught and evenly tensioned. The elbow also connects the upper and lower sections of the arms together and houses the cable or strap system to ensure constant pressure against the fabric as it pushes away from the axle.
Somfy Remote Controls are easily programmed to any Somfy Motor. Single channel, 5 channel and 16 channel remotes are available to meet any of your configuration needs. Somfy remotes are easy to use and operate with a simple push button design. Water resistant versions available.

Sunbrella Fabrics are durable, low-maintenance and come standard with a unique coating that breaks down dirt and organic material so they can be easily washed with a sprayer. These Awning Fabrics come in 100s of color variations and styles to meet your design needs.
The Protective Hood Cover is only needed for “Open Roll” awnings and is elegantly designed to reduce wear and tear of the retractable awning while it is in the fully closed position. This component will provide UV protection for the fabric and weather protection for all other components.
Once you have chosen the right shade structure for your home, the next step is finding the perfect fabric. An awning can be a way to add a burst of color to your space. Or if you are looking for your awning to blend in, match the fabric color with your home. Also keep in mind your furniture’s color palette – both inside and out.
Sunbrella awning fabrics guarantee you excellent, long-term protection against UV rays, heat, light and inclement weather. Its solution-dyed acrylic fibers (Sunacryl) and special outdoor awning treatment (Cleangard) enable the fabric to retain its original color outstandingly well and over long periods of time. Sunbrella fabric is ideal for all kinds of awnings, wherever they are placed.
Your shade structure will be visible from inside the home, so be sure your fabric choice looks just as lovely from inside.
