Custom Awnings & Canopies Made to Your Specifications
Custom awnings and canopies come in a wide range of styles and sizes to fit any need you might have. Window awnings are a great solution for light control and privacy, while our pergola awning collection is the perfect system for larger residential spaces, home patios, and commercial buildings. Pergola awnings offer added durability and function against the sun and inclement weather with their roll-down screens, windows with zippers to shield guests from the rain or cold, and integrated gutters that effectively disperse water. Canopies are a functional way to create a dramatic entrance while adding style to your property and providing shade and comfort.

Retractable Awnings
Retractable awnings are adjustable extensions of your home that provide the shade of a roof with decreased costs and increased convenience. With a retractable awning, you can protect your outdoor living space from the blazing sun when you want shade while still having the option to enjoy sunshine whenever you want to. Awnings come in a variety of materials, colors, and patterns; are available in both standard and custom sizes; and generally offer motorized or manual options for retraction. While motorized retractable awnings represent more of an investment than their manual counterparts, their sensors and remote controls offer additional convenience and ease of use.

Custom Canopies
Canopies are freestanding structures with posts supporting a fabric roof; they’re the perfect solution if you’re looking for a way to provide shade over a seated area outside of your building or home. A custom canopy is an ideal option for shading your outdoor space if you don’t have a patio connected to your home. Canopies are a seasonal shade solution featuring canvas tops that can be set up and packed away as needed, making them a durable, long-lasting option since they don’t need to be exposed to the elements year-round.

Commercial Retractable Awnings
Commercial retractable awnings are ideal for hospitality businesses looking to offer comfortable and cool outdoor seating and dining areas. They also provide flexible outdoor spaces for any commercial business, keeping your customers cool on the hot NJ summer days.

Our stationary canopies and pergola covers provide fixed solutions with minimal upkeep requirements for both homeowners and businesses. Extend the usable square footage of your home or commercial premises, protect your outdoor furniture from the elements, and block out the sun’s harmful UV rays while enjoying the warmer weather.

Motorized vs. Manual Options
Our custom awnings and canopies are available in both motorized and manual variations. Motorized retractable awnings provide an easy and convenient solution, allowing you to adjust or retract your awning or canopy at the touch of a button, while manual options are a straightforward and cost-effective alternative with no electrical or wiring requirements.

Awnings and Canopies in NJ: Frequently Asked Questions
- What’s the difference between a retractable awning and a canopy?
A retractable awning is a structure attached to a building that can be extended, retracted, or adjusted as needed. A canopy, on the other hand, is a freestanding and usually fixed structure. Both provide shade and shelter in outdoor spaces.

It is difficult to answer this accurately, as it depends on the specifics and complexity of your chosen awning or canopy. The simplest installations can be ready in as little as a few hours, while more complex structures can take a few days. When we finalize your order, we will provide you with a realistic installation timeline.
- Can I customize the fabric and frame color?
Yes! All our awnings and canopies are completely customizable, allowing you to create a unique solution that is perfect for your home or business.
