Hotel, Resort & Restaurant Awnings and Canopies

Guests judge a property before they reach the front desk. 1800Awnings manufactures the structures that shape that first impression and keep guests outside longer: arrival and porte cochere canopies, pool and rooftop pergolas, cabana structures, and retractable awnings and screens that extend restaurant patio seasons — all built in our Tampa factory to your design team's drawings and finishes.

Built to Your Brand Standard

Hospitality brands specify color, profile and lighting down to the detail. As the manufacturer, we build to that standard rather than adapting a stock product: a specific RAL color, woodgrain soffits, integrated lighting provisions, fascia depth to carry signage. For multi-property groups we keep each property's specification on file so new locations and replacements match.

Restaurant patios are a different problem — weather, not branding, is what empties the tables. Retractable awnings and motorized screens let you seat the patio through summer sun, light rain and cooler evenings.

Custom aluminum awning manufactured by 1800Awnings in Tampa, Florida

Engineered and Finished for Resort Climates

Every unit is built in our own plant at 4608 N. Hale Ave in Tampa: aluminum extrusions are cut and welded by our fabricators, powder coated in-house to any RAL color or finished in aluminum woodgrain, then wrapped and custom-crated by the same crew. All-aluminum frames and stainless fasteners mean there is no steel to rust in salt air.

Pool decks and beachfront terraces are hard on structures: chlorine, salt and constant UV. All-aluminum frames with full powder coat and stainless hardware are built for exactly that, and we provide shop drawings for your engineer and permit submittal.

Yes. We powder-coat in-house to any RAL color and offer woodgrain finishes, and we keep each property's specification on file for future locations or replacements.
