7 Benefits of Adding an Awning to Your Home

Homeowners choose awnings to enhance outdoor spaces with added shade and protection from the weather. However, awnings have many more benefits for homeowners.

Awnings come in retractable or fixed options and typically cover windows, doors, or patios. Many styles attach to the house or patio, but we also offer standalone pergola designs. Regardless of the type you choose, the primary purpose of an awning is to provide shade and shelter to enjoy Colorado’s beautiful outdoors.

Benefits of Home Awnings

• Protection from the Elements – An awning protects against sun, rain, and light winds. You and your family can find comfort in your backyard throughout the year. Colorado has over 300 days of sunshine. While residents love the sun, sitting exposed outside is hot and uncomfortable. Shade keeps you cool while you dine, cook, and play outside.
• Extended Living Space – Adding an awning to your yard extends the usable space for your home. In fact, with the correct design elements, an awning can create the look and feel of an outdoor kitchen, dining room, or living room. Skip the expensive home addition, and add the space you need with an awning.
• Energy Savings – The EPA recommends awnings as an energy-saving tool against solar heat transfer during hot summer months. Shade from an awning blocks the sun’s heat from pouring through from the outside. Unlike blinds or curtains, an awning allows a clear view through the window. Yet, you still enjoy cooler interior temperatures.
• Easy Care – Awnings require little upkeep or maintenance. You can easily keep them clean. Plus, they hold up well for many years. Retractable awnings even tuck away neatly when not in use.
• Privacy – When you install an awning for your patio or backyard, it creates a private area that allows you to entertain guests and spend family time. For homes with neighbors nearby, an awning gives the feel of separation and privacy.
• Enhanced Curb Appeal – An awning not only adds function but also makes your home look great. We carry a large selection of types and colors to match your style preferences and create a beautiful exterior design.
• Increased Home Values – Awnings add value to your home. Homeowners typically install an awning to meet their need for shade or comfort. However, it also adds lasting value. If you decide to sell your home, an awning adds to the market appeal.
