 PROVIDING ANSWERS TO YOUR IMPORTANT QUESTIONS

How much is a commercial awning?

The costs of a commercial awning vary, depending on the size and your desired features. Canvas Crafts manufactures and installs awnings of different sizes, styles, and models, so you're guaranteed of finding a product that matches your budget.

What type of awning is best?

Businesses choose commercial awnings for various reasons, including protection from harsh weather, visibility and branding, and blocking UV rays and heat from entering their commercial buildings. Therefore, the best type of awning is the one that best satisfies your needs.

How long do aluminum awnings last?

Aluminum awnings can last up to 30 years if cared for and maintained properly. While aluminum awnings are available at relatively higher costs, they are low-maintenance products with 3 to 4 times more durability than fabric awnings.

 

How big should an awning be?

Fabric awnings can be made in a wide range of sizes, styles, and shapes and provide unlimited branding options with various graphics options. Since commercial awnings serve different purposes, size matters as it affects their function. Request a quote today, and our awnings and canopy professionals will help you choose the right size for your outdoor expansion and improvement needs.

Do you need planning permission for installation?

Whether you need a permit or not depends on the awning size, the scale of the project, and the graphics involved in the project. Each municipality has its local laws, so it would be best to confirm the permit and planning requirements in your location before starting a project.
