Window & Door Awnings
Building the Strongest Awnings in South Florida since 1980
Our awnings are known for being able to withstand hurricanes and tropical storms where many others have failed. We craft our awnings using the best materials, design and engineering practices. We focus on efficient truss design as well as reinforcing weak points that generally fail during storms. We do not upcharge or cut corners when it comes critical anchors, connections, welds, and fasteners.
- Engineered to last. Engineered beyond code.
- We use thick-walled hot dipped galvanized steel (schedule 40) or schedule 40 aluminum, never thin-walled pipe like gator shield or conduit
- We do not use zinc plated fasteners, always stainless steel and galvanized anchors
- Base plates and connectors are always hot dipped galvanized
- All frame corners are mitered and fully welded together, completely sealing the pipe interior from the corrosive effects of moisture and salt air
- All fabricated metal frames are properly primed and painted

Energy
The Department of Energy findings indicate that exterior awning shade provides up to 90% reduction in solar heat. Awnings provide an effective solution for reducing energy costs.
Weather Protection
These systems afford protection from the sun, rain, snow, sleet and hail. In certain configurations, they can also protect from wind.
