Weston's gated communities and lake-lined neighborhoods are known for strict architectural standards. Lakefront pool terraces catch wind across open water, and a cassette awning in an approved color is the typical choice.
1800Awnings builds and ships retractable awnings to Weston 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 Weston
Broward County is part of Florida's High-Velocity Hurricane Zone (HVHZ), with a design wind speed of about 170 mph, far beyond what any fabric awning can handle extended. No retractable awning is a hurricane product. Every awning should be retracted before storms, and we recommend motorized operation with a Somfy® wind sensor on every South Florida install. Wind speeds are approximate. Your building department can confirm the values for your address.
Broward's HVHZ rules mean you should expect a permit for a new awning. Check with the City of Weston building department before installing. Motorized awnings may also need an electrical permit, and we supply specs and documentation for your application.

Do I need a permit for a retractable awning in Weston?
Expect one. South Florida's High-Velocity Hurricane Zone has the strictest permitting in the state. Confirm requirements with your building department before ordering, and we'll supply the documentation.
Can I put a retractable awning on a condo balcony?
Often, yes, with association approval. A compact cassette such as the Shademaker Apollo™ mounts to the wall or soffit and closes into a clean box.
