Retractable Free Standing Awnings and Canopies

Freestanding retractable awnings are usually medium or large, permanent structure rain and/or shade/shading systems for decks and patios or any other outdoor living area or workspace. They are perfect for homeowners and businesses who have a very low roof height with no space to mount an attached type retractable awning, large yards, in-ground or above-ground pools or large, spacious patios and decks.

More durable than makeshift, portable canopies and pop up tents and more attractive than traditional screened in areas, free-standing awnings allow you to create shaded, rain, hail, snow protected areas (depending on model installed) on your patio or deck without the need to install a permanent structure since all offer retractable roofs, retractable louvered roofs or rotating louver roofs. They are easy to assemble, and offer you more flexibility with creating cool, shaded, rain, hail and snow protected spaces outdoors.

RetractableAwnings.com offers The Torino, which is far stronger and sturdier than your average retractable patio umbrella. With a one-of-a-kind, modern look that combines functionality with style, this easy-to-use awning has a canopy capable of tilting forward and backward so you can adapt your shade depending on where the sun is shining. Its hassle-free crank makes opening and closing this awning a breeze.

Retractableawnings.com also offers other  free standing awning models, most of which offer sun, heavy rain, hail protection and one model, the Bioclimatique, that offers sun heavy rain, hail and snow protection.

Yes, as opposed to fixed awnings, the Torino model can be transported in your motorhome, camper or RV recreational vehicle (space dependent) and set up anywhere you choose. All other freestanding models are not designed to be transported within a motorhome, camper or RV.
