6. Awning styles a variety of shapes, sizes and styles.
Canopy
A canopy, unlike an awning, is supported by
not less than one stanchion at the outer end,
as well as the building to which it is attached.
Like an awning, it is made of fabric and can
provide the same benefits and aesthetics of an
awning.
Traditional
The traditional frame is comprised of a down-slanting front
panel with or without two side panels or ends. It can be
used over smaller areas like windows and entryways, but
can also provide protection over large areas like porches,
patios and decks.
Dome
A dome-shaped awning is typically found over
small entryways and windows and can be used in
archways. The quarter-sphere shape provides
similar protection from the sun and rain from all
angles.

7. Elongated Dome
Similar to the dome-shaped frame, this style
works best for long windows or entryways
that require a dome awning. The elongated
dome can be used on a flat surface or can
curve to cover a corner entry or windows.
Quarter Round / Convex
The quarter round frame is similar to the traditional awning
with flat side panels, but is characterized by a curved front
panel, constructed from a series of parallel bows in the
shape of a convex curve. It produces a radius shape with flat
ends. It is best used over a small entryway or window.
Concave
Most typically used over a window or door, the
concave design is characterized by the inward
curvature of the front panel. The side panels can
be covered with fabric for a completely shaded
enclosure, or left open, leaving the front panel
supported by decorative poles.

8. The Pros and Cons of Retractable Deck Awnings
• Purchasing a retractable deck awning is a big
investment. While smaller, less-expensive
awnings start at around $500, larger, higher-
quality awnings can cost as much as $2,000 or
more. Before you make the decision to buy a
retractable awning, you should learn as much
as possible about their benefits and
drawbacks. Here are the top three pros and
cons to consider.

9. Retractable Awnings Can pay for Themselves
• Most homeowners buy these items for the shade they provide over decks,
making time spent outdoors more comfortable. Sure, the initial cost to
buy and install a retractable awning can be steep. Yet they often end up
saving the homeowner money in the long term, in part because of the
shade they provide to the interior of the home. Air conditioners don't
have to work as hard to cool the home, resulting in lower electric bills.
Over time, these can add up to significant savings.

10. Retractable awnings protect indoor and outdoor furnishings
• Awnings are a great way to protect your outdoor furniture,
but you may not realize they can also protect the furniture
indoors. Providing shade to certain rooms in your house
means the furniture and fabrics normally exposed to the sun
are no longer subject to the sun's bleaching effect, or to
drying out.

11. Retractable awnings have longer lives than other
types
• While nonretractable awnings are cheaper, they're also more likely to be
damaged during bad weather. For example, in a wind storm, the
retractable version can be retracted to keep it protected and stable. The
nonretractable kind are exposed to the wind and can easily be torn. Over
time, exposure to sun can bleach the fabric on awnings, which means that
those that can't be retracted will fade much sooner.

12. Retractable Awnings Cons
Retractable awnings are expensive
There's no getting around the fact that retractable awnings are expensive.
This makes it even more important to be sure they will provide the
benefits you're looking for. It's also important to make sure you buy a
quality product that will last many years. Some awning dealers provide
financing to make this purchase more affordable for their customers.

13. Replacing the electric sensor
• You'll have two primary types of retractable awnings to choose from:
manual or motorized. Motorized awnings are more expensive but also
more convenient. Many of them come with remotes that make them very
easy to operate, and others also have sensors that cause them to retract
when they sense rain. Manual awnings may become difficult to operate
over time, and if the motorized version has an electric sensor, it will need
to be replaced periodically, adding to the expense. When the electric
sensor isn't functioning, you'll need to operate the awning manually.

14. Cleaning and maintenance
• All awnings, whether retractable or nonretractable, need to
be cleaned on at least a seasonal basis. Over time, awnings
can collect a great deal of dirt and dust, making them an
eyesore rather than an attractive part of your home. In
addition, water can collect in some places on fabric awnings,
which can lead to unhealthy mold growth. You'll also need to
keep the metal parts of the awnings clean and free of debris
to keep them functioning properly.
