Accent Awnings offers custom retractable awnings to fit the needs of every customer. With over 150 different fabric/mesh styles and various forms of functionality you can create the shade you need.

The Elite® is Accent’s premium tier retractable awning system and the superior roll-out awning of its kind today. Built using the highest quality materials and engineered for versatility, durability and elegance, the Elite® Retractable Patio Awning series can do it all.

What Are Retractable Awnings?

A retractable awning is an awning with movable arms that extend or retract the fabric. The arms themselves are metal, the number and length of which depend on the size of the covering itself. Generally, most residential awnings will have at least two arms for the most support. Accent’s retractable awnings are the premier solution for solar protection.

From Sunbrella® certified fabric to seamless retractability, these awnings are in a league of their own. Our extensive retractable awning warranty covers everything from the fabric to the arm mechanisms. The ability to retract during extreme weather protects your investment while keeping you cool throughout the warmer seasons. Overtime, these awnings practically pay for themselves, cutting energy costs in half when installed and used properly.

Once you consider the value and convenience of retractable awnings, consider customizing a style to fit your vision. With 4 retractable options to choose from, over 120 different fabric styles and various forms of functionality – like remotely controlled retractability, wind and sun sensors and timers – there are plenty of ways to create the shade you need.
