Retractable Awnings In Pekin
Retractable Awnings in Pekin, IL
A patio or deck with no roof over it in Pekin, Illinois takes the full sun all afternoon. Our Solar Shield Blinds Retractable Awnings extend over it with one button and tuck back into a cassette housing when you want the sun back or a breeze turns into a real wind.
Where It Fits In Pekin
Shade For Pekin Patios And Decks
A Retractable Awning mounts to the house and projects 8, 10 or 12 feet, so it adds shade over an open patio, deck or outdoor kitchen without building a roof.
- Patios Facing The FairwayA home backing up to the course at Sunset Hills has an open view worth sitting outside for, and an awning makes the afternoon bearable.
- Long Back WallsA single awning can stretch along the back of the house anywhere between 10 and 40 feet, sized to the inch.
- Outdoor KitchensWhoever is on grill duty gets shade over the counter and the burners during a hot July cookout.
- After DarkEvery awning has LED strips under its arms, and the remote that comes with it dims them for a late dinner outside.
Premium Features, Standard
Lights, a cassette and EZ-Pitch on every awning we sell
LED lights under the arms, our EZ-Pitch adjustment and an integrated cassette are standard on every Solar Shield Blinds Retractable Awning, and the cassette shelters the rolled fabric from weather, birds and insects. With the included crank handle you change the pitch so light rain runs off one side, no tools or ladder needed.
Fabric comes from Sunbrella, with 30 colors in stock and more than 300 available to order, and the frame comes in white, bronze or beige at no extra charge, finished with a straight or sea-wave valance. The Skin Cancer Foundation has given Sunbrella fabrics its seal of approval for UV protection. Every awning we sell runs on a motor.
An awning takes 6 to 8 weeks from order to install, so a spring visit is the way to have shade over a Pekin patio before the Fourth of July. On a gusty day the awning goes back into its cassette, and that's the reason we sell retractable awnings only, so yours can be put away and protected.

Straight Answers
Retractable Awnings questions from Pekin homeowners
Yes. Our awnings are heavy and reach well out from the wall, which makes a hand crank the wrong tool for opening them, so the install includes wiring to an outlet close by.
Yes. Widths run from 10 feet to 40 feet, custom to the exact inch, and the awning projects 8, 10 or 12 feet from the house.
No. Everything we sell retracts, so the fabric can be stored inside its cassette out of the wind whenever the awning isn't in use.
Plan on 6 to 8 weeks from order to install, and we work to get your install scheduled quickly once the awning is delivered.
Yes. LED light strips under the arms are standard on every Solar Shield Blinds Retractable Awning, and the included remote dims them.
Yes, in light rain. A few turns of the included crank on the EZ-Pitch adjustment angle the awning so rain drains off one edge instead of sitting on the fabric.
