We spend a great deal of time in the field installing aluminum awnings, window awnings, sheds, decks, aluma lattice products, screen rooms and building shade screen structures. We have for over 30 years. We have gained a lot of knowledge in that time and being out there on a daily basis we keep up on all the new products and ways of using them.

Aluminum Awnings

Building a patio cover is a good place to start if you are considering using aluminum for your patio or carport cover. It gives a good overview of the installation process. This page is followed by a page of photos and step by step tips to further illustrate the simple skills used to assemble aluminum awnings. We have also started our awning faq section to help answer all the questions you may have before starting your own project. Awnings FAQ and Awning Questions and Answers are two pages full of answers.
