Bonita Springs sits between Fort Myers and Naples, with gated golf communities inland and Gulf-front homes and condos along Bonita Beach. Community HOAs expect a clean, architectural look, which is why cassette awnings dominate here.
1800Awnings builds and ships retractable awnings to Bonita Springs from our Tampa facility. We carry the full Eastern Awning Systems line (Sunflexx® and SunScape®) and our own Shademaker™ series (Helios™, Apollo™, Zeus™ and Hercules™), in manual, motorized, semi-cassette and full-cassette versions.

Wind, weather and permits in Bonita Springs
Design wind speeds in Lee County are far beyond what any fabric awning can handle extended. No retractable awning is a hurricane product. The everyday risk is the summer thunderstorm gust front that arrives with little warning, so we treat a Somfy® wind sensor as essential on motorized awnings. Wind speeds are approximate. Your building department can confirm the values for your address.
Permit requirements vary by jurisdiction. Check with your city or the Lee County building department before installing, and plan on HOA or architectural review in most communities. Motorized awnings may also need an electrical permit. We supply specs, colors and product documentation for your applications.

Bonita Springs retractable awning FAQ
What's the best retractable awning for a Bonita Springs patio?
For sheltered patios, the Eastern SunScape® is the best value. Waterfront or wind-exposed homes should step up to the Sunflexx® or a Shademaker Apollo™ full cassette. West-facing patios do best with the Shademaker Helios™.
Do I need a motor and wind sensor?
We strongly recommend both in Bonita Springs. Summer storms arrive fast, and a wind sensor retracts the awning even when you're not home.
How much does a retractable awning cost in Bonita Springs?
At 1800Awnings, retractable awnings start at about $3,064 (Eastern SunScape®), $3,473 (Eastern Sunflexx®), $4,322 (Shademaker Zeus™), $4,655 (Shademaker Helios™), $5,639 (Shademaker Apollo™) and $9,477 (Shademaker Hercules™), with free shipping to Bonita Springs. Final cost depends on size, motorization, sensors, lighting and installation.
