Lake Mary's established neighborhoods and corporate campuses make it one of Central Florida's most affluent suburbs. Homeowners here tend to want a finished architectural look: slim cassettes, color-matched frames and integrated lighting.
1800Awnings builds and ships retractable awnings to Lake Mary 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 Lake Mary
Design wind speeds in the Orlando area run roughly 130–140 mph, far beyond what any fabric awning can handle extended. No retractable awning is a hurricane product. Inland, the everyday threat isn't salt but pop-up thunderstorms and lightning: calm patios can see strong gusts within minutes, which is why a Somfy® wind sensor matters here. 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 Seminole 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.

Lake Mary retractable awning FAQ
Do I need a coastal-grade awning in Lake Mary?
Salt isn't the main issue inland, so a hood or cassette is optional for sheltered patios. Heat and storm gusts are the main issues. Put your money into a motor and wind sensor first.
Will an awning really cool my patio?
Yes. Shade lowers the surface temperature of the patio and the wall behind it, and can reduce heat gain through sliding doors and windows.
How much does a retractable awning cost in Lake Mary?
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 Lake Mary. Final cost depends on size, motorization, sensors, lighting and installation.
