Why should you choose a retractable awning?
Sun or Shade on Demand
Get full shade or sun at the press of a button with a retractable awning. With optional smart home integration, you can control the shade without having to leave your seat!
Easy Cleaning
Sunbrella fabrics are built to last and simple to care for. Everyday spills can be quickly blotted with a dry cloth, then cleaned with mild soap and warm water. For tougher stains, these fabrics can even be safely cleaned using a diluted bleach solution—without fading or damage.
Mold & Mildew Resistant
Sunbrella fabrics are designed to resist mold and mildew, even in damp or humid conditions. If dirt or debris leads to any buildup, the fabric can be easily spot cleaned using a mild bleach solution, without compromising the color or integrity of the material.
Resists Fading & UV
Sunbrella fabrics are engineered for lasting performance, with color pigments infused deep into each fiber. This solution-dyed process ensures vibrant, fade-resistant colors that withstand intense sun exposure and everyday wear, maintaining their beauty and strength season after season.

The frames are powder-coated in-house, resulting in a durable, low-maintenance finish available in multiple color options.

FAQ about Retractable Awnings

You won’t need to! Our most popular awnings come pre-equipped with built-in LED track lighting.
Note that some awning styles do not have lighting. One of our awning experts would be happy to walk you through the options.
