OUR MATERIALS ARE
MADE TO LAST

"When Quality Counts...
You're Covered With Us!!
Your trust and delight assure our future.
  • LOCAL PRESENCE - Make sure you can visit your dealer and see the various shapes and configuration of covers and shades as well as trying out the motorized or manual controls for ease of use.
  • BRACKETS - Extruded heavy-duty aluminum; this is the first thing attached to your property and skimpy brackets means a skimpy job!
  • ARMS - Double cable to reduce wear and increase tension in arms; hinges move independently for maximum protection in high wind
  • PAINTED FRAMES - We custom-weld stationary frames and use an exclusive Sherwin-Williams product to paint frames to match your choice of covering; if you choose black or white, the painting is FREE.
  • THREAD - Our stationary covers are sewn with Tenera™ thread, impervious to sun, weather, or water damage; guaranteed for the life of your cover..
  • STITCHING - We do not chain stitch; we use a unique lock-stitch method that ensures should a thread come loose in one spot, the seam still stays secure.
  • INSTALLATION - Custom made spacers on site to accommodate masonry, vinyl or wood siding.
  • WARRANTY - "Lifetime" warranties offered by most companies are actually for seven years - the average life span of an awning manufactured by one of the national chains - our 10-year warranty represents "Lifetime" PLUS three years!
