FAQs

What is the maximum width of a retractable awning?

We are able to manufacture custom retractable awnings up to 26’ in width. As the width of an awning increases, additional lateral support arms are introduced.

Can I use a retractable awning for both sun and rain?

Yes. The awning can be used in light rain when supervised, provided there is enough slope for the water to run off. Anything less will lead to water pooling on top of the fabric, potentially damaging the awning’s frame and / or fabric.

How do I clean my awning?

Fabric gets dirty; it’s a fact of life. The fabric can be cleaned easily and is suggested annually. Using a garden hose, spray the top of the fabric to remove dust and pollen. If required, mild soap (such as Dawn or Sunlight) can be used to treat more stubborn spots. Rinse off all soap residue and let the fabric air dry before retracting the awning.

Is the fabric waterproof?

The fabric is classified as water-resistant. This means that the fabric will not let water through freely, keeping you dry underneath. However, the fabric will get wet. In poor weather conditions, it is safe to retract a wet awning. If rolled up wet, extend the awning to dry within a few days.

Will screen systems provide me with privacy?

Higher density mesh or solar mesh is used to achieve daytime privacy. Solid acrylic fabrics can also be used to provide privacy for both daytime and nighttime use.

Will a retractable screen system provide protection from insects?

Our Phantom Executive Screen and Zip Shade Screen systems are ideal for keeping unwanted pests out of your space. The mesh stays firmly locked into the integrated side tracks providing an insect free area.

How large of an area can I have covered?

The retractable Terrace awning is ideal for covering large areas. A single unit can be manufactured up to 23’ wide with a projection of 19’ 8”. Even larger areas can be achieved by connecting multiple units together.
