Custom Fixed Awnings

Types of Fixed Fabric Awnings

So many awnings, so hard to choose! It’s almost like shopping the cereal aisle of your local megastore. But at Aero Shade, we can guide you through the dizzying selection process.

• Stationary fabric awnings have durable and weatherproof fabric stretched over a rigid frame. They come in various shapes and sizes, often with a modern and customizable look to match the architecture and color scheme of a building.
• Dome awnings add distinction and charm to commercial storefronts and residential windows. Their half-dome shape helps them withstand high winds and rain, making them well-suited for coastal areas. Restaurants, cafes, and boutiques favor dome awnings.
• Dutch canopy awnings have a distinctive sloped front with a horizontal projection. They provide shade for a room, rather than an outside space.
• Sail awnings create large shaded areas for residential gardens and commercial outdoor spaces.
• Spear awnings are distinguished by their decorative spear-shaped ends or points, usually made of wrought iron or aluminum and sometimes adorned with intricate details.
• Patio and deck awnings protect outdoor dining, entertaining, or relaxation areas. We’ll customize them to fit any size patio or deck.
  
• Window awnings reduce solar heat gain through windows, improving energy efficiency.
• Door awnings shield business entrances from the elements and serve as advertising.
