My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Are these awnings retractable?

11 years ago
Hi Susan,
Lovely awnings. Terrific fabric. Are these retractable and, if so, are they retracted manually or mechanically.
Thanks so much.

    Kate they are mechanical hand rollup. The homeowner had them installed after a fabric consult. I like them too!

    I bet that my wife would like these a lot. Our house is made out of a dark brick as well, so I bet that the fabric would look great with it. We're getting a little to old to have to retract these by hand. Do you know if there is a kind that retracts automatically? http://www.lalondeawning.ca/en/index.asp?
