How To Create a Modern Space With Awnings
An awning gives you more outdoor living space and keeps you cool. Awnings also protect your furniture and landscaping from midday sun, increasing your home’s value and curb appeal. We carry several retractable and fixed awning options to help you create a modern space.
Experience an Electronic Awning
An electronic awning is retractable, so you can close it up when you aren’t using it or during severe weather to extend its lifespan. We use reliable Somfy® Motorization for our retractable awnings. Somfy® has been an innovator of motorized awnings for over 50 years, and their TaHoma® system allows you to control your awning with one tap of an app. You can also schedule your electronic awning to open and close and connect Somfy® to leading smart home systems.
Colorful Awning Ideas
High-performance fabric doesn’t have to have an industrial, utilitarian appearance. Bring colorful stripes and texture to your home’s awning with Sunbrella® Fabric. If your fixed awning is solid, add fabric curtains to the sides for flair and extra privacy. A black awning can give your contemporary home an elegant appeal.
Make Your Awning Luxurious
Fixed awnings with a steel frame are attached to your home, making them exceptionally sturdy. A fixed awning can accommodate more amenities than retractable styles. Install a ceiling fan under your awning to keep you cooler on those balmy days and nights. A fixed awning can also support heavier outdoor lighting and hanging plants to turn your deck or patio into an all-out oasis.
Enjoy Outdoor Entertaining
An awning allows you to enjoy entertaining guests outdoors regardless of the weather. The temperature underneath an awning can be up to 20 degrees cooler than the actual temperature and will also protect guests from sunburns and pesky glares. Adding lighting to your awning and mesh side panels will make your deck or patio the perfect place for a cocktail or dinner party so mosquitoes and other pests won’t crash.
Maintaining Your Awning
Awnings are low-maintenance. You can clean them mid-season by brushing off loose debris like leaves and twigs and spraying the surface with a hose. You should thoroughly clean your awning before winter and wrap it tightly in a tarp after completely drying it. If you cover a damp awning, it’s susceptible to mildew and mushroom growth. Inspect your awning for any signs of minor damage the first time you use it in spring so you can address them before they become more problematic.
