The traditional style frame is our most popular is both commercial and residential. This style can be used over smaller areas like windows and entryways, but can also provide protection over large areas like porches, patios and decks.
The roll front style awning is similar to a traditional style with the flat side panels, but is characterized by a curved front panel, constructed from a series of parallel bows in the shape of a convex curve. It produces a radius shape with flat ends. It is also conducive to turning corners, making it ideal to shade storefront windows as well as the sidewalk.
Similar to the dome-shaped frame, this style works best for long windows or entryways that require a dome awning. The elongated dome can be used on a flat surface or can curve to cover a corner entry or windows.
California style canopies are adjustable to the angle of the sun, but since they don't have sides, they may be less effective at blocking sunlight. Consider awnings with sides for areas of your business that get more sun exposure.

This style canopy is our most popular in the commercial industry. Marquee style canopies provide shade and shelter from the weather while creating a powerful impression with a flat metal canopy. An aluminum suspended canopy is pre-engineered for commercial use, over a window or door and also used as an entrance canopy. We design all of our prefabricated metal canopies in house.
Step-down aluminum awnings use a traditional wedge shape to cover your patio, porch, or entry. Designed to hold up to the toughest winters or hottest summers, these awnings make for the perfect low maintenance year-round protection. Step down aluminum awnings will not rot – and with proper care will resist fading – making our aluminum awnings a cost effective and maintenance-free addition to your home.

Ends
Our Standing Seam and R Panel awnings come with the option of an open end or a closed end. You can choose from mill finish, aluminum, painted or powder coated frames.

Open End
The swayback design is characterized by the inward curvature of the front panel. The side panels can be covered with fabric for a completely shaded enclosure, or left open, leaving the front panel supported by decorative frame.
Whether used as an entry feature or outdoor shelter, walkway covers openly impact the visual appearance of any project with remarkable style. Our systems are made to order with 100% extruded aluminum components, combining lasting beauty and low maintenance.
A dome-shaped awning is typically found over small entryways and windows and can be used in archways. Whether you want to update an older building or home with architectural accents or harmonize new awnings with your existing architecture, domes can be an excellent choice for your home or business. The quarter-sphere shape provides similar protection from the sun and rain from all angles.
The straight lines and angles of the gable style canopy complement modern designs. The front face lends itself naturally to the placement of graphics for strong branding.
Patio covers can cover large areas and are often used to cover patios/decks and outdoor seating at restaurants. If you live in a humid area, experience a lot of rain, or live near the ocean, an aluminum patio cover is a smart choice for your outdoor cover needs. Wood patio covers are a great option, but they require maintenance that an aluminum cover does not—saving you time and money. Aluminum patio awnings are incredibly easy to maintain, and can be cleaned with water and soap to look like new. Extreme hot, cold, or wet weather will not affect their appearance, they won't rust, crack, or peel, and they're not susceptible to termites and other pest infestations.
Drop curtains are a stylish solution to turn your outdoor patio into an indoor space and expand the amount of space for customers.
Standing Seam Metal
Standing Seam Metal (SSM) awnings offer an industrial upgrade that can enhance architectural structures old and new. While the up-front costs are generally higher than canvas, the long term return is substantially better. Typically, metal lasts 4-5 times the lifespan of canvas while requiring little to no maintenance with all the same benefits. This style awning can be used as a window awning or door awning or an architectural canopy, walkway cover or patio cover. While SSM awnings are not new to the industry, the demand for these awnings is certainly on an upward trend.
Concealed Fastening
This type of fastening can best be described as metal panels with a raised seam that are typically fastened down to the roof deck using hidden clips and fasteners.

Exposed Fastening
R Panel – Exposed Fastening System are roof panels which lap over each other and fastened to the structure using self-drilling fasteners. A pre-engineered metal canopy is used in a commercial and Industrial application.
