What's the difference?
Long story short, you really can't go wrong! Price range and the availability of options will vary from one shade series to the next. But, all of the SummerSpace Awning Series are manufactured with premier methods and materials. Our field experts are perfect resources to help you select which awning style works best for your budget and needs.
Awning Cassette Options
The awning cassette is the housing that encases your retractable awning when it is not in use. They come in different configurations depending on the level of protection desired:
Traditional (Open)
Traditional awnings, sometimes referred to as open awnings, are considered the basic model. The awning operates largely the same when deployed, but when retracted the fabric roll is left open to the elements without cover.Â
Traditional awnings are best utilized when a feature of the home, like wall projections or overhanging roofs, can protect the roll in lieu of a cassette.
Semi-Cassette
Semi-cassette awnings are an intermediate option between open and full-cassette awnings. They feature a protective cover, or "cassette," that partially encloses the retractable fabric when the awning is retracted. This cassette helps shield the fabric from dirt, debris, and harsh weather when not in use, prolonging its lifespan. However, the fabric still remains partially exposed even when the awning is fully retracted.
Full-Cassette
Features & Options
Motor & Remote Control
Operate your awning with a quiet, hidden, tubular motor with an all weather remote control. The manual override loop allows you to retract your awning in the event of a power outage.
Wind Sensor
Our Wind and Motion Sensor provides wind protection, retracting the awning automatically when winds exceed a safe speed
Flex-Pitch
The innovative Flex-Pitch design allows you to adjust the shoulder and front bar with hand-crank ease. You can even tilt your front bar for added custom comfort. Smoothly transition your awning angle for perfect shade.
*Available only in SummerSpace Pro Series Traditional Awnings
Awnings With Drop Shades
This add-on is actually a favorite among our customers; awnings with drop screens! With this unique setup, customers get maximum shade protection from the sun when it drops low in the sky. There are almost a dozen drop screen materials to choose from for your awning. You can opt for a neutral choice that is a direct match, or something bold to accent your awning color.
With just the touch of a button, your rechargeable battery operated motor will silently extend or retract your drop screen attached to your awning.Â
