The local shop, not a franchise

United States Awning has been based in Sarasota for roughly seventy years, and family owned since 1935. Everything we install here is designed, fabricated and finished a few miles from the job site. That proximity is the whole argument: site visits get scheduled quickly, a service call does not wait on a route from another county, and a recover comes off the same patterns we cut the first time.

Sarasota work runs the full range — a single door canopy on a bungalow off Orange Avenue, a dining-terrace canopy downtown, storefront awnings on St. Armands, motorized screens on a Siesta Key lanai, and large aluminum shade structures for general contractors. Coastal exposure drives the specification: solution-dyed acrylic or Ferrari membrane, stainless and corrosion-resistant fasteners, and finishes that hold up to salt air.

What We Install In Sarasota

01

Fabric Awnings & Canopies

Entry canopies, window awnings and storefront covers patterned for the opening. Sunbrella on homes, Ferrari where a membrane sees heavier commercial use.

02

Metal Awnings & Canopies

Aluminum canopies measured in the field and fabricated on 18th Street, with 150+ powder-coat finishes to match a storefront system.

03

Retractable Awnings

Exclusive Sunesta dealer for Southwest Florida for 35+ years. Motorized for wide patio spans, manual crank over smaller openings.

04

Motorized Screens

Progressive screens on MagnaTrack for lanais and pool cages — insects, glare and blowing debris, plus the hurricane-rated Defender line.

05

Aluminum Pergolas

Fixed structures engineered to the site. No warping, no annual sealing, and finish quoted with the structure so the color cost is clear.

06

Louvered Pergolas

Sundance Outdoor Living systems with rotating louvers. Sarasota County sits inside our exclusive seven-county territory.
