Collection: Retractable Awnings

Retractable awnings give you shade when you want it and sun when you do not. Awntech retractable awnings cover patios, decks, pools, and outdoor dining areas from 8 to 24 ft wide, in manual or motorized versions, and every one ships fully assembled.

Choose your style

The Maui is an open-roll awning with a clean, simple look. The Destin adds an aluminum hood over the fabric roll. The Key West is a full cassette that encloses the fabric and arms when closed. The California is our budget-friendly open-roll model in 8 to 12 ft widths, and the Mesa is a compact drop-arm awning for windows and balconies.

Manual or motorized?

Manual awnings open and close with a hand crank and need no power. Motorized awnings run on a remote, plug into a standard 110V outlet, and can add a wind or vibration sensor that retracts the awning automatically. Most manual models can be upgraded to motorized later.

How to size a retractable awning

Measure the width of the area you want to shade, then choose a projection, which is how far the awning extends from the wall. Projections run 6.5, 8, and 10 ft on most models, with larger projections available on some wider Maui and Destin sizes. Make sure you have room for the brackets on the wall, soffit, or roof where it will mount.

Built to last

Fabric is 100 percent solution-dyed acrylic in 41 colors, and frames are heavy-duty aluminum and steel. The Maui, Destin, Key West, and Mesa include a 5-year limited warranty, and the California includes a 1-year limited warranty. Most installs take 1 to 2 hours with two people.

Retractable awning FAQs

Can a retractable awning stay out in the rain?
No. Awntech retractable awnings are made for sun. Retract the awning in any rain so water does not pool on the fabric, and in strong wind or storms.

Can I replace the fabric later?
Yes. The fabric can be replaced without replacing the frame or motor.

Do I need an electrician for a motorized awning?
No. It plugs into a standard 110V outlet. Hardwiring is optional.
