The Center Beam Advantage

The most important and distinguishing feature to our awnings is the patented center beam. These are the only retractable patio awnings with a center beam stabilizer that runs lengthwise giving the awning a "hip shape" when extended. This carefully researched design feature makes these models more spacious, stronger and offers greater wind stability. The fabric is kept tighter as it runs over the center beam keeping the fabric taught and preventing sagging found in most traditional awning designs. The "hip shape" also offers a more effective shield from direct low sunlight. The increased slope on the front end of the awning ensures more headroom while enhancing the beauty of the outdoor living space.
