If I purchase a traditional patio awning, can the frame be dismantled for the winter months?

Yes, it can. However, it is important that you inform us of this requirement, so that the awning is designed for this purpose and the proper slip fittings are used.

What is the support frames made from? How durable are they?

Clanton’s metal support frames are made from galvanized steel and should last a lifetime! Regular maintenance on a frame requires annual inspections of fasteners, connections and metal condition. Frames are also available with a painted finish for additional protection and attractiveness.

Does my awning come with a warranty?

In many cases, awning fabrics are warranted for a period of 5 years or more, in proportion (pro-rata) to the useful life of the fabric. Other warranties regarding the frame and workmanship may apply and vary by job and by state. We can provide the exact details for your particular project upon completion of the awning design.
