Create shade when you want it and an open patio when you do not. We custom measure and professionally install manual and motorized retractable awnings for Utah patios, decks, and balconies.
An uncovered patio can become too hot to use during the brightest part of the day. Extend a retractable patio awning for overhead shade, then retract it when you want the open sky. The fabric canopy folds into a compact housing instead of becoming a permanent patio roof.
Choose a manual hand-crank model or an automatic retractable awning operated by motor and remote. We will help you compare mounting options, frame colors, fabrics, projections, sensors, and lighting so the finished awning fits both the home and the way you use the patio.
If you are comparing SunSetter awnings, Sunesta awnings, or other retractable awning brands in Utah, we will explain the practical differences in size, operation, fabrics, customization, and written warranty coverage. The goal is to choose the right system for your space rather than force every patio into the same product.
We install retractable awnings from established outdoor-shade manufacturers and help you compare operation, sizes, fabric choices, frame finishes, accessories, customization, and written warranty coverage.

The Sunsetter awning that we had installed on our back patio is a game changer and easy to use. In addition to the shade it provides, the awning keeps the indoor space of our house much cooler. The install went very smooth and fast, the awning came in sooner than expected and project was completed ahead of schedule. Very professional and knowledgeable team to work with. They are family run business and go above in beyond in all steps of the process, from initial consult to completion of installation. Thank you Jackson, Jim and team!

We are so pleased with our retractable awning. The quality and design meet are needs. The owner, Jim Jenkins sent out a knowledgeable sales team that was very professional. The sales team listened to my concerns and needs, ultimately supporting us with the correct awning for our home. The sales team also kept us informed about when the product arrived and when the installation would occur. This installation team arrived on time and was respectful towards my personal property as my patio is small with several pieces of furniture they needed to work around. Mark the installer kept us informed about how this awning was being installed so when he left we understood every aspect of operating and enjoying the ambiance of are retractable awning . Mark was also very patient in answering every question I had. I definitely would recommend this company.

From the first phone call to the last, it was a pleasure to do business with this company. The meeting in our home to explain their product was informative. They provided a detailed booklet as well as metal and fabric samples we could hold and feel. These materials are of the highest, sturdy quality. Installation was quick, clean and efficient. We love finally being able to sit on our deck any time of day, shielded from the hot sun. We are completely satisfied with our awning. Our only regret is that we didn’t do it sooner.
