The Destin awning is our heavy-duty patio retractable awning with an aluminum hood. The design and operational use is modern and is recognized for its pre-installed sleek protective hood cover. The retractable is fully assembled and provides the option to purchase a standard manual operation controlled by a rocker arm/hand crank or a motorized operation that is controlled by a radio frequency paired remote control. This awning was specifically designed for the purpose of protecting the sides and the top of the awning and the awning fabric when it is fully retracted. The framework includes a heavy-duty steel and aluminum white powder-coated frame and powder-coated aluminum hood. It retracts and expands with multi-chambered, stainless steel, and dual-cabled lateral projection arms. The fabric is constructed of Beauty-Mark brand 100% solution-dyed acrylic fabric. Each fabric includes resistant coatings to help:
- Prevent fading from the harsh UV sun rays
- Resist potential soil and mildew build-up
- Provide a water-resistant barrier to protect the threads from bleeding color* (See disclaimer at the bottom)
- Offered in multiple solid and stripe fabric colors
Each retractable awning includes our standard Sahara style 10-inch valance that can be used all year round as well as removed and stored away until the next season. Installation simply requires mounting the brackets followed by securing the awning into the brackets. The awning may be installed on many different surface types such as brick, stucco, wood, stone, and many others. The mounting of the brackets is a quick step-by-step process when following our installation manual. Each Awntech awning is designed to be installed by DIYers constructing a DIY (Do It Yourself) project. Needless to say, this does not exclude contractors or professional installers. Awntech guarantees high quality and ensures that each retractable awning is hand-crafted to have a long-lasting durable design and structure.
* Disclaimer: Water-resistant does not mean the retractable awning is waterproof. We recommend that you avoid using a retractable awning in inclement weather. The fabric is tightly woven and can puddle water in the middle of the awning when extended, potentially putting too much pressure on the arms and damaging them. Please review the warranty policy for any clarification.
