What are Motorized Awnings?
A motorized awning is a modern evolution of the traditional awning, combining fabric and a sturdy frame with automated mechanisms. Typically extending over windows, doors, or outdoor lounging areas, these awnings can be retracted or extended at the push of a button.
Whether it’s a sudden burst of sunshine or an unexpected drizzle, motorized awnings provide instant shade and shelter, enhancing outdoor comfort. Indoors, they effectively mitigate sun glare and thermal input, optimizing interior temperatures and reducing energy consumption.
The Many Uses of Awnings
At BetterExteriors, we offer a wide array of electric awnings tailored to fit diverse requirements. Let’s walk you through how these versatile additions can transform different spaces.
Home Sweet Shaded Home
Awnings for
Residences
A retractable home awning instantly elevates your living space. Offering both shade and protection from the sun, it allows homeowners to carve out an outdoor haven right in their backyard. With its automatic retractability, you hold the power to choose between a sunny patio or a shaded oasis. What’s more, it’s an effective tool to regulate indoor temperatures, blocking sunlight and its accompanying heat.
Patio Perfection
Awnings for Patios
Your patio can be the go-to spot for outdoor relaxation, especially when equipped with the right awning. With our retractable awnings, extend shade on demand or retract it to bask in the sunlight. The ability to toggle between shaded and sunny spots makes these awnings a must-have for patios.
Deck Delight
Awnings for Decks
Who can resist the charm of lounging on a deck? With our retractable awnings, your deck time is maximized. Whether it’s a sunny brunch, a midday BBQ, or an evening with loved ones, our deck awnings offer shade on demand, ensuring a comfortable outdoor experience.
Windows and Awnings
A Match Made in Heaven
Introducing awnings above your windows can significantly reduce heat gain and sunlight glare. These awnings are not just functional but also enhance the aesthetics of your home. Especially for windows facing direct sunlight, retractable window awnings offer protection when it’s needed the most.
Doorway to Comfort
Awnings for Doors
An awning above a door doesn’t just exude style; it’s exceptionally functional. Whether you’re fishing for keys or waiting for a ride, stay protected from the sun or rain. While we usually recommend fixed awnings for doors, if a retractable option sparks your interest, our team is here to help.
Pergola Enhancements
Awnings for Pergolas
While directly attaching an awning to a pergola isn’t feasible due to weight concerns, we’ve crafted a workaround. By mounting the retractable awning to your home, it can effortlessly extend over your pergola, offering adjustable shade. Transform your pergola into a shaded sanctuary with this innovative solution.

Whether it’s a cafe looking to provide shade to its outdoor diners or a store aiming to increase its foot traffic, our commercial awnings are designed to meet diverse business needs. With the potential to include brand logos and tailored designs, they can seamlessly integrate with your commercial branding strategy.
