This type of awning has many functions: 1) Rain and snow shed off the roof and away from the main entry door. 2) Harsh UV rays are broken down by the polycarbonate, protecting the deck and entryway. 3) Light is broken down some by the polycarbonate, but still illuminates the entryway and enters through the glass door. This creates a bright and welcoming entryway rather than a gloomy one. This light will also be shared into the office, which is on the other side of the mudroom. 4) The welded steel has a lower profile than wood, so has a sleek and modern aesthetic. Greenovision Home Design- Custom designed and fabricated polycarbonate and welded steel entryway awning.

This penthouse awning installation near New York City shows 2,000+ square feet of dining area that is now completely protected by a waterproof retractable enclosure. The desire was for a penthouse awning that provided protection from the sun, but was also heavy-duty enough to handle inclement weather. The owner wanted to preserve the Al-fresco outdoor dining feel of the rooftop patio, but wanted to be able to hit a button for on-demand protection when needed. This restaurant can now book additional functions, generating more revenue from the penthouse than before the awning was installed - guaranteeing their patrons a protected space. The Gennius is a retractable pergola awning SPECIFICALLY designed to handle inclement weather. Rainwater is routed downward with the slope of the fabric, and captured within a gutter integrated within the awning's supporting framework. Rainwater then escapes the gutter through the support posts and is diverted away from the entertaining area.

Want the most unique backyard covered area in town? Your friends will be amazed by your Aluminum Louvered Patio Roof System that OPENS and CLOSES by remote control! It’s even Solar Powered! These are not kits. We build them to your specifications for both residential and commercial, up to any size. With the Lifetime Warranty on the powder coated finish, you will enjoy this maintenance free roof for YEARS! (The system pictured is attached to the house which is our most popular!) This product will totally protect you from the SUN and RAIN! When closed all the way the roof will not leak underneath. Each louver acts as a gutter that channels all the water off into the grass or an optional gutter system. You can adjust the amount of sunlight you want coming through your roof because you can stop it in any position between open and close. This is the Cadillac of roof systems so be prepared to spend some money, but it will be one of the best investments you can ever make in your home. What good is a Florida backyard if it’s too hot or wet to enjoy it!
