Buy from a Reputable Manufacturer.
Purchasing any product from a reputable manufacture is very important for any product and the Aluminum Awning market is no different.  You will want a Manufacturer who maintains a high quality product that you know has been around for many years and will be been around for many years. 

The Manufacturer that we use is Amerimax Building Products.  Amerimax Building Products has been around for more than 30 years and is one the largest aluminum manufactures in the world.

The Amerimax name has stood for quality, value and innovation for many years.  Amerimax open lattice and solid roof patio covers, awnings, and carports reflect this proud tradition. Amerimax patio covers and shade structures increase property value while affordably adding outdoor living space.  Amerimax originated the "Alumawood" brand Awning.  If you are not familiar with the Alumawood Awnings they are a wood textured all aluminum design that looks and feels just like a real wood awning.  They are an attractive, unique maintenance-free sanctuary from the blazing sun. Each component is manufactured from structural aluminum alloys and finished with a high performance coating offered in a variety of colors and accompanied by a limited lifetime warranty.  Each system is engineered to assemble with flawless fit and meets stringent specifications backed by I.C.B.O.  Every design detail has been carefully considered to enhance aesthetic appeal and the natural wood appearance. Whatever your customer's request, Amerimax has the solution. And with our in-house team of design and engineering experts, we are equipped to answer any questions you may have.
 

 

Installation: Can a Homeowner really Install this?
Our Awnings are considered Do It Yourself Awnings designed for easy installation, most of our customers are the average Homeowner with no construction background.  However, this is the same high quality product that you see installed by Contractors, the only difference is you do the installation and save a lot of money no having to pay for the installation.  We provide a complete kit for you, all materials required are part of the kit, no additional parts are required to assemble.  All of the required small parts are included as well to install such as screws, bolts, wedge anchors, brackets, flashing and caulking.  Not all kits will require all of these small parts (for example an arbor lattice will not require flashing), your kit will come with only the necessary parts and complete detailed installation instructions to make your install trouble free.  See our Customer Testimonials...

Install time for most Homeowners is usually about one weekend depending on the size of the awning, you will need basic Hand Tools.
The Tools needed are relatively inexpensive and can be found at any Home Center (Home Depot, Home Base, etc..) if you do not already have them.
See a list of Tools Required
Technical Assistants is also available, if you have anything that you are unsure about one of our Designers will be happy to give you any advice you need or walk you through step by step.
   
How Wind and Snow Loads effect you.
The Awnings are designed based on your requirements for snow and wind loads.  Every area is different but more than likely your local Building Dept. will require you to obtain a permit for your awning.  Contact your local Building Dept. and ask what your live load and wind factor are.
   
How pricing is calculated.
The prices are based on what it takes to make your awning, every customer is different due to area snow and wind requirements combined with awning size and options for the awning.  You can fill out a free quote on our site and we will get back to you with a delivered price.
