1. STATIONARY AWNINGS

What about those areas of your home that get a lot of sunlight almost every hour of every day?

They’re becoming increasingly popular in homes because of their energy-saving properties. After all, the rays that passes through your windows accounts for almost 20% of your air conditioning load.

The simple yet stylish shape fits perfectly with a variety of architectural styles, from ultra-modern, contemporary and Mediterranean themes to French country, European, Italian, farmhouse designs and more, adding depth and character to the home. In other words, you'll never be forced to sacrifice style for comfort.
