Custom Awnings
Our custom patio awnings transform outdoor spaces into functional living areas. Using welded Galvalum steel frameworks and fade-resistant Sunbrella fabric, these permanent structures withstand snow loads and high winds while maintaining aesthetic appeal. The ventilated side panels reduce heat buildup by 25% compared to direct sunlight exposure. Optional features include ceiling fans, lighting systems, and privacy walls with semi-transparent screening for noise reduction.
Muskoka Gazebos
The Grand Gazebo system creates freestanding outdoor living spaces that remain installed year-round. Constructed with heavy-duty structural steel and weather-resistant fabric, these gazebos feature vented roofs and optional power-operated screen walls. The modular design allows installation on concrete or wood bases without permanent home attachments. Integrated systems include fireplace compatibility and smart climate control features for three-season usability.
Privacy Walls
Our adjustable privacy walls combine functionality with aesthetics using semi-opaque mesh panels. The Clear View sliding screen system provides insect protection while maintaining visibility, with self-storing panels that eliminate wind damage risks. Optional winter panels allow year-round furniture protection. The screens withstand winds up to 80 mph and feature touch-controlled operation for instant climate adjustment.
Shade Roll Screens
These adjustable shade systems combat sudden afternoon sun exposure with manual or crank-operated mechanisms. The high-performance fabric blocks up to 90% of direct sunlight while maintaining visibility. The durable construction resists weathering and UV degradation, with customizable color options to match existing decor. Installation options include both awning-integrated and standalone configurations.
Pergola Conversions
Transform existing decks into all-season living spaces with our pergola conversion systems. The structural steel framework supports year-round use while maintaining architectural integrity. Features include removable winter panels, integrated lighting systems, and customizable trim options. The design preserves ventilation while providing complete protection from sun, rain, and insects.
