Costs to Consider
Retractable awnings come in various types, styles, and price ranges. Prices can range from budget-friendly to high-end, depending on the durability and quality. Ready-to-install awnings are generally less expensive but may not be easily repairable and may not last long. On the other hand, high-end retractable awnings offer different styles, appearances, and features. With some guidance, you can find a retractable awning that suits your shading needs and fits your budget, while ensuring it comes with a quality warranty.
Build your Retractable Awning
Motorized or Manual: When choosing a retractable awning, you’ll first need to decide between motorized or manual operation. Opting for a motorized awning provides convenience and speed, as you can simply use a remote control to retract it with ease. On the other hand, a manual awning is a great choice when simplicity is preferred or when electrical power isn’t easily accessible. It’s worth noting that with a motorized awning, you can still manually retract it in case of a power outage.
How it appears when closed: The next decision involves selecting between an open roller, open roller with a hood, or full cassette design. The main difference lies in how the awning appears when closed. A hood or a full cassette provides additional protection for the fabric and helps to minimize the visible components when the awning is not in use. While a full cassette option may be slightly more expensive, it completely conceals both the mechanism and the fabric, offering a sleek look.
Arm types: You have the choice between traditional arms, cross arms, or gas piston arms for supporting the awning. You can also opt for a valance or a retractable valance, depending on your preferences and desired aesthetics.
Where to mount: The majority of our retractable projects involve installing wall-mounted systems above windows or doorways. However, we also specialize in creating custom-designed retractable covers for freestanding structures like pergolas.
