Whether you have a residential awning or a storefront awning, maintaining its original condition makes it more attractive and durable. Use the following tips to keep your retractable awning looking as good as the day it was installed:
- Regular Maintenance
A few times throughout the year, clear the awning of any surface dirt, pollen, dust, spider webs, or other debris that could eventually damage the canvas. Use a broom or other type of brush to sweep the surface clear of debris. Rinse the material off with your hose. Repeat the process on the bottom of the awning. Keeping the canvas clean will extend its life, so it offers your property the best protection.
- Yearly Cleanings
Once or twice every year, give the awning a cleaning to get rid of dirt that has nestled deeply into the material. Use equal parts of dishwashing soap and warm water to create a cleaning solution. With a spray bottle, wet both sides of the awning and rub the solution into the material. Rinse with a hose for a deep cleaning. You can also apply a fabric sealant which will protect the material from the strong Atlanta sun.
- Necessary Servicing
Your retractable awning company can help service your awnings if you should ever have a problem. Although you should have no issues, if you do notice a problem with the canvas or the frame, call the company for a repair. Maintaining your awnings will keep them working for you longer.

Not every awning is created equally. Each piece in your retractable awning is designed to give your property an intended look and feel. The metal frame is a huge aspect of your awning’s mobility, which is why it is such an important feature. Keep reading to learn what to look for in the frame finish for your awning:
- Go with Lightweight Aluminum
Georgia has a humid and muggy climate, which can be harmful for certain kinds of metal. Lightweight aluminum, however, withstands the heat and humidity to provide you with a strong frame that lasts. Since lightweight aluminum does not rust like other metals, your awning will remain attractive even after years of use.
- Look for High Quality Craftsmanship
When you purchase a residential or restaurant awning, you should work with a company that manufactures its own products. This way you can be sure that they are crafting a material that will last. When the metal frame is perfectly welded together, your awning is strong enough to survive harsh storms. If you buy a strong frame, the rest of the awning will be strong, too.
- Find the Perfect Shape
On top of the functional qualities of an awning frame, the frame also affects the product’s appearance. You can choose different metal frames that create a completely new aesthetic appeal. Storefront awnings should have a more professional appearance, so choose a frame shape that attracts customers to your business. You have more freedom when choosing a residential awning.
