Can't Install It Yourself? How Our National Dealer Network Helps

20 Jun 2026 0 comments
Commercial aluminum open-tube awnings installed on a storefront

One of the biggest hesitations people have about buying an awning online is the install. A custom-built, commercial-grade aluminum awning is a serious product — and not everyone has the tools, time, or comfort level to mount one safely. That's exactly why we're building a national dealer network for installation support.

The problem with "buy online, figure out install later"

Plenty of sellers will ship you an awning and wish you luck. But a poorly mounted awning underperforms and can even be unsafe — anchoring matters as much as the awning itself, especially for wind uplift and snow load. The right installation protects both your investment and the people under it.

How our dealer network works

We manufacture and ship your custom awning, and our growing national dealer platform provides installation support for customers who can't install themselves. That means you get the benefits of buying factory-direct — true custom sizing, in-house finishes, lower pricing — without being left to handle a complex install alone.

Who this helps most

  • Homeowners who want a professional, warranty-friendly installation.
  • Businesses that need storefront or entrance awnings mounted safely and to code.
  • Multi-location retailers and GCs coordinating installs across regions.

Ordering with installation in mind

Accurate measurements and approved CAD drawings make installation smoother — the installer knows exactly what's arriving and how it mounts. We handle the drawings and the build; the dealer network helps get it on the wall.

Frequently asked questions

Do you offer installation everywhere?

Our dealer network is growing nationally. Contact us with your location and we'll let you know about installation support in your area.

Can I still install it myself if I want to?

Yes — many customers do. Approved CAD drawings and clear measurements make self-installation more straightforward.

Why does professional installation matter?

Proper anchoring is critical for wind and snow performance and safety — it protects your investment and everyone underneath.
