Motorized Awnings

Awnings add charm and functionality to outdoor living spaces.

Shade on demand, from a Gulf Coast classic.

Offering welcome shade and protection from the Gulf Coast sun, awnings work over a patio, porch or entryway to help keep outdoor areas cooler and more comfortable — perfect for relaxing afternoons or casual entertaining. Available in a variety of fabrics, colors, and styles, awnings not only extend your usable space but also enhance your home's coastal character with timeless Southern flair.

Motorized retractable models give you the shade when you want it and the open sky when you don't. Add a wind sensor and the awning retracts itself before a storm ever reaches your street.

Motorized extension and retraction from a remote or wall switch.

“Gulf Coast Shades and Blinds was such a pleasure to work with from the ownership down to all the folks who come out to make it all come to life.
