Retractable Awnings for Decks and Patios in Greater Pittsburgh
Shade when you want it. Roll it back when you don't. Manual and motorized retractable awnings, sized to your space and installed by Neilly Canvas.
Retractable Awnings Made for Your Deck or Patio
Neilly Canvas sells and installs retractable awnings for homes and businesses across the Greater Pittsburgh area. A retractable awning extends over your deck or patio when you want shade. It rolls back against the house when you want the sun.
We carry Solarshield and Sunair retractable awnings. Each one is built to order for your space, and most take 4 to 8 weeks from order to installation.
Motorized or Manual Retractable Awnings
We offer both.
Manual
A manual retractable awning opens and closes with a hand crank.
Motorized
A motorized retractable awning, often called an electric awning, opens at the push of a button. Every one we sell has a manual override crank, so you can still close it if the motor fails.
How Much Wind a Retractable Awning Can Take
How much wind a retractable awning can take depends on its size. A wider awning catches more wind.
Our advice is simple. Roll your awning in whenever it's windy.
How Our Retractable Awnings Are Built
The frames are extruded aluminum with a powder-coated finish that resists corrosion. The hardware is stainless steel.
Spring-loaded lateral arms push the awning out from the wall. There are no support posts, so the space underneath stays open.
Options include:
- Custom widths and projections
- Manual or motorized operation
- Wall, roof or soffit mounting
- Valances
- A wide choice of awning fabric and colors
Retractable Awnings for Restaurants and Businesses
Restaurants, storefronts and hotels use retractable awnings to cover outdoor seating during service and open it up after. Commercial systems use reinforced aluminum frames and heavy-duty fabric.
For awnings that stay out all season, see our commercial awnings.
