You know the drill. Summer afternoons in Schall Circle mean your outdoor space becomes unusable by 11 AM. The sun beats down relentlessly, making your patio feel like a furnace instead of the relaxing retreat you envisioned.
Our custom awning installations change that completely. You get professional-grade shade that blocks over 98% of dangerous UV rays while reducing your home’s solar heat gain by up to 75%. That means cooler indoor temperatures, lower energy bills, and outdoor spaces you can actually use when you want to use them.
Whether you’re looking for retractable awnings that adapt to changing weather or motorized systems you control with your smartphone, we design solutions that work with Schall Circle’s unique climate demands. Your outdoor space becomes an extension of your home, not a seasonal afterthought.
We bring over 20 years of design and installation experience to Schall Circle, with established operations in NYC and Toronto before expanding to South Florida. We understand what works in Florida’s demanding climate because we’ve been solving outdoor shade challenges for decades.
Our team doesn’t just install awnings—we create complete outdoor solutions. From hurricane-rated retractable systems to smart home-integrated motorized awnings, every installation is designed specifically for the homeowner and their property’s unique needs.
As Schall Circle residents know, outdoor living is a year-round priority in Palm Beach County. We help you maximize that investment with professional installations backed by comprehensive warranties and ongoing service support.
Your awning installation starts with an in-home consultation where we assess your space, discuss your needs, and take precise measurements. We’ll show you fabric options, frame materials, and control systems that work best for your specific situation and budget.
Once you approve the design, our team custom-fabricates your awning using hurricane-rated materials and professional-grade components. Most residential installations take between two hours and two days, depending on the complexity and size of your system.
After installation, we walk you through operation and maintenance, ensuring you know exactly how to get the most from your new outdoor space. Every installation includes our comprehensive warranty and access to ongoing service support when you need it.

Every awning installation includes professional-grade aluminum frames with powder coating for Florida’s coastal environment, UV-resistant fabrics rated for 110+ MPH winds, and complete structural mounting systems designed for your specific building type.
For Schall Circle homeowners, we recommend motorized systems with weather sensors that automatically retract during high winds or unexpected storms. These smart systems integrate with popular home automation platforms, allowing you to control your awnings through smartphone apps or voice commands.
Our installations also include comprehensive site preparation, cleanup, and a detailed walkthrough of your new system’s operation. Given Schall Circle’s proximity to the coast and frequent afternoon thunderstorms, we ensure every installation meets or exceeds local building codes and hurricane preparedness standards.
Professional-grade awning frames typically last 15-20 years in Florida’s climate when properly installed and maintained. The fabric components usually need replacement every 7-10 years, depending on exposure and usage patterns.
Our installations use powder-coated aluminum frames specifically treated for coastal environments and UV-resistant acrylic fabrics designed to withstand Florida’s intense sun and frequent storms. We also include comprehensive warranties that cover both frame and fabric components, giving you peace of mind about your investment.
Regular maintenance like cleaning and seasonal inspections helps maximize lifespan, and we provide detailed care instructions with every installation to help you protect your investment.
Yes, when properly designed and installed, awnings can withstand Florida’s severe weather conditions. We use hurricane-rated systems designed for winds up to 110+ MPH, and all installations meet or exceed local building codes for wind resistance.
Retractable awnings offer the best protection because they can be quickly retracted into protective housing when severe weather approaches. Our motorized systems include weather sensors that automatically retract the awning when wind speeds reach predetermined levels, protecting both the awning and your property.
For permanent installations, we use reinforced mounting systems and structural-grade materials specifically engineered for Florida’s hurricane zone requirements. Every installation includes detailed instructions for storm preparation and seasonal maintenance.
Manual awnings use a hand-crank system to extend and retract the fabric, typically costing $1,000-$2,500 plus installation. They’re reliable, require no electricity, and work well for smaller installations or budget-conscious projects.
Motorized awnings use electric motors controlled by wall switches, remote controls, or smartphone apps, typically ranging from $4,000-$7,000 plus installation. They offer convenience, can integrate with smart home systems, and include features like automatic wind sensors and programmable schedules.
For most Schall Circle homeowners, motorized systems provide better long-term value because they’re more likely to be used regularly. The convenience factor means you actually get the benefit of your investment rather than leaving the awning in one position because manual operation is inconvenient.
According to the U.S. Department of Energy, properly installed awnings can reduce solar heat gain by 65-75% on south and west-facing windows. For typical Schall Circle homes, this translates to 15-25% reduction in cooling costs during peak summer months.
The exact savings depend on your home’s size, window orientation, and current insulation levels. Homes with large glass doors or windows facing west toward the afternoon sun see the most dramatic improvements in both comfort and energy costs.
Beyond direct energy savings, awnings extend your usable outdoor space, potentially reducing the need for expensive interior renovations or additions. Many homeowners find their outdoor areas become primary entertainment spaces once properly shaded, adding functional square footage to their homes.
Yes, our motorized awning systems integrate with popular smart home platforms including Alexa, Google Home, and most home automation systems. You can control your awnings through smartphone apps, voice commands, or automated schedules based on time, weather, or sun position.
Advanced systems include weather sensors that automatically adjust based on wind speed, rain detection, and sun intensity. Some homeowners program their awnings to extend automatically during peak sun hours and retract before evening storms, maximizing both comfort and protection.
Smart integration also allows you to control multiple awnings simultaneously, create custom scenes that coordinate with other outdoor systems like lighting or music, and receive maintenance reminders through your connected home system. These features are particularly valuable for Schall Circle’s variable weather patterns.
Florida awnings need regular cleaning every 2-3 months to remove salt air, pollen, and debris that can damage fabric and mechanical components. Most maintenance involves gentle washing with mild soap and water, plus periodic lubrication of moving parts on retractable systems.
Seasonal inspections before and after hurricane season help identify potential issues before they become expensive problems. We check mounting hardware, fabric tension, motor operation, and weather seals to ensure everything functions properly when you need it most.
Our installations include detailed maintenance schedules and instructions, plus access to professional service when needed. Most homeowners handle routine cleaning themselves, but we recommend professional inspections annually to maintain warranty coverage and ensure optimal performance in Florida’s demanding climate.
