Your AC is working overtime because the Florida sun is beating through your windows and turning your patio into a furnace. You’re paying hundreds extra every month just to stay comfortable, and your outdoor space sits empty most of the day.
A properly installed awning changes everything. Your home stays 15 degrees cooler without cranking the AC to arctic levels. Your energy bills drop by 20-30% because you’re blocking heat before it enters your home, not fighting it after the damage is done.
You get your outdoor space back. Morning coffee on the patio becomes possible again. Evening dinners outside don’t require industrial fans and ice buckets.
We bring 15 years of experience and thousands of successful installations to Doral. We’ve built our reputation in NYC and Toronto, and we understand exactly what works in South Florida’s intense climate.
We’re not just another awning installer. We’re a comprehensive design company that understands how awnings fit into your bigger picture—energy efficiency, outdoor living, and home value.
Our team handles residential homes and commercial properties throughout Doral, from custom homes to hotels and office buildings. We know Florida’s building codes, weather patterns, and what actually holds up when hurricane season hits.
We start with an on-site consultation where we measure your space and discuss your specific needs. No generic recommendations—we’re looking at your actual windows, your privacy concerns, how the sun hits your property, and what you’re trying to accomplish.
Next, we present options that make sense for your situation and budget. We explain what works best for Doral’s climate, show you samples, and walk through automation options if you’re interested in smart home integration.
Once you approve the design, we handle manufacturing and coordinate installation around your schedule. Our installation team shows up on time, protects your property, and doesn’t leave until everything works perfectly. You get a final walkthrough and instructions for any motorized or automated features.

You get custom awnings designed specifically for Doral’s climate and your space. That includes motorized options, smart home integration, hurricane-resistant materials, and energy-efficient solutions that actually reduce your cooling costs.
Doral’s intense sun and humidity require awnings that can handle both heat and moisture without warping, fading, or developing issues. We use aircraft-grade aluminum frames, UV-resistant fabrics, and rust-proof hardware that’s specifically rated for high-humidity, high-UV environments.
For homeowners, this means bedroom awnings that actually block light for better sleep, living room treatments that reduce glare without making spaces dark, and outdoor awnings that handle Miami weather while maintaining curb appeal. Commercial clients get professional-grade solutions that maintain appearances while handling high-traffic use.
The savings are significant and measurable. According to studies by the Professional Awning Manufacturers Association, properly installed awnings can reduce your annual cooling energy by 20-30% in hot climates like South Florida.
Here’s how it works: awnings block heat before it enters your home, rather than forcing your AC to fight it after the damage is done. A strategically placed awning can drop your indoor temperature by up to 15 degrees, which means your air conditioner doesn’t have to work nearly as hard to keep you comfortable.
Most Doral homeowners see their energy bills drop by $100-300 per month during peak summer months. Over time, quality awnings typically pay for themselves through energy savings alone, not counting the added comfort and property value benefits.
Doral’s climate demands awnings built specifically for high heat, humidity, and hurricane-strength winds. We recommend retractable awnings with aircraft-grade aluminum frames and solution-dyed acrylic fabrics that resist fading and moisture.
Motorized retractable awnings work exceptionally well here because you can extend them during peak sun hours and retract them during storms or when you want natural light. The automation options include wind sensors that automatically retract the awning if conditions become unsafe, and sun sensors that extend coverage when UV levels spike.
Fixed awnings work well for areas that need permanent coverage, like storefronts or entryways, but they need to be engineered to handle hurricane-force winds. We ensure all installations meet Miami-Dade hurricane code requirements and Florida building standards.
Most residential awning installations take 4-6 hours for a single awning, or a full day for multiple units. The timeline depends on the complexity of your installation, whether electrical work is needed for motorized options, and if any structural modifications are required.
We handle all the preliminary work—permits, engineering calculations, and material ordering—before installation day. Our team shows up with everything needed to complete the job, including proper equipment to protect your landscaping and property during installation.
For commercial projects or complex residential installations, we may need 2-3 days depending on the scope. We always provide a detailed timeline during your consultation so you know exactly what to expect and can plan accordingly.
Properly designed and installed awnings absolutely hold up during hurricane season, but the key is using the right materials and engineering for Florida’s wind loads. We use aircraft-grade aluminum frames, memory steel components, and hurricane-rated fastening systems that meet Miami-Dade building codes.
Retractable awnings offer the best protection because you can retract them when severe weather approaches. Our motorized units include wind sensors that automatically retract the awning if wind speeds exceed safe levels, even when you’re not home.
For fixed awnings, we engineer each installation to handle sustained winds up to 150 mph. All our installations include proper permits and inspections to ensure they meet local building codes. We also provide detailed instructions on storm preparation and offer annual maintenance to keep your awnings in optimal condition.
Our installation service is comprehensive—we handle everything from initial consultation to final inspection. That includes on-site measurements, custom design, permit applications, engineering calculations, manufacturing, delivery, professional installation, and cleanup.
For motorized awnings, we include electrical work, programming of controls and sensors, and training on how to operate your system. We also provide smart home integration if you want your awnings connected to existing automation systems.
Every installation comes with comprehensive warranty coverage: 3 years on manual systems, 5 years on motorized components, and full materials coverage. We provide annual maintenance for motorized systems and respond within 24 hours if you experience any issues with your awnings.
The choice depends on how you use your space and your specific goals. Retractable awnings offer maximum flexibility—you get shade when you need it and full sun when you want it. They’re ideal for patios, decks, and windows where you want seasonal control over light and heat.
Fixed awnings work best for areas that need permanent coverage, like storefronts, walkways, or windows that get intense sun year-round. They’re typically more cost-effective upfront and require less maintenance since there are no moving parts.
For most Doral homeowners, retractable awnings provide the best value because Florida’s weather changes quickly. You might want shade at 2 PM but prefer natural light for dinner. Motorized retractable awnings give you that control at the touch of a button, plus automatic sensors can adjust coverage based on weather conditions even when you’re not home.
