Frequently Asked Awning Questions
- What is a retractable awning?
A shading system that is self-supporting and can provide shade when you want it, but retracts when shade is not required. Sometimes called a lateral arm awning, it relies on spring loaded arms to extend the awning and apply tension to keep the awning fabric taut when open.
- What supports a lateral arm awning if it does not have supporting poles?
A good quality retractable awning should not need support poles. Quality deck or patio awnings rely on two things: 1) a secure mounting to your structure in conjunction and 2) a strong framework to support its own weight. The arm tension is created from springs inside the arms. Large radius elbows will keep the fabric tight by applying outward force.
- What happens when I’m not using my awning?
A retractable awning is self-storing. It is retracted when not in use. In the retracted position, it is protected from damage that adverse weather can cause.
- How are retractable deck and patio awnings installed ?
This is a job best left to professional awning installers. A qualified installer locates the structural framework of the home and pre-drills installation bracket holes through any siding to tie in directly to either wall studs or headers. On roof mount applications, the installers tie into the rafters. They pre-drill to avoid cracking, and add silicone caulk to the pre-drilled holes, hardware and brackets for leak prevention. Most mounting applications utilize 3/8" lag bolts in varying lengths, depending on mounting surface .

Awning Cleaning
Sunbrella
awnings are made from synthetic materials. But over time
if not cleaned regularly, environmental build-up such as pollen
and dirt on your awning fabric can itself accumulate mold and
mildew and soil. Most awning fabrics have a longer life
expectancy and
look better when cleaned occasionally. Let
us clean your awning fabric and restore its beauty and water
repellency.
