Retractable Roller Awnings Give You Flexibility
(coverage when you want it -- and open skies when you do not)

A retractable roller awning is a great way to provide shade coverage on that hot deck -- or allow your patio party to continue when it starts to drizzle -- and then roll up out of site when you don't want it.

Buy the best: We at Dorchester Awning specialize in top of the line retractable awning systems that have been designed specifically to withstand wind loads and stresses that these type of awnings experience (see side box below).  This very flexible awning system also happens to be like a large sail and so it is important that you procure the very best possible product.  We encourage you to shop around and compare the quality and durability of the product we sell.  Give us a call to schedule an appointment and we will gladly demonstrate the features.

Specialized Applications:  Certain application can require unique solutions.  Ask us about coverings for Pergolas, Window Roller Awnings, and Window Shade Screens.   Also see the Residential Awning page for the traditional window retractable awnings.
