Mounting Options
Customize the installation of your commercial retractable awnings to perfectly match your building’s architecture and operational requirements:
Wall-Mounted Retractable Awnings
A reliable and popular solution, wall-mounted awnings attach directly to exterior walls, seamlessly extending your interior business space outward. Ideal for storefronts, sidewalk cafes, and restaurant patios, these awnings create inviting shaded areas without compromising floor space.
Roof-mounted Retractable Awnings
Roof-mounted awnings are ideal for buildings with limited wall space or unique architectural elements. Securely affixed atop your structure, these awnings project outward, providing shade and weather protection to entrances, dining areas, or customer waiting zones below.
Soffit-mounted Retractable Awnings
Soffit-mounted awnings elegantly integrate into your building’s eaves or overhangs, ensuring clean aesthetics and maximum headroom beneath. Ideal for commercial entrances or outdoor seating areas where a streamlined look and optimized clearance are paramount.

Fabrics & Materials
Goodwin‑Cole’s commercial retractable awnings are crafted using only premium outdoor-rated fabrics, professionally engineered to withstand high-usage environments. We rely on solution‑dyed acrylic textiles from industry-leading suppliers—materials saturated with UV‑stable pigments that resist fading even under prolonged sun exposure. These fabrics deliver exceptional UPF 50+ protection, shielding guests and interior furnishings from harsh ultraviolet rays while maintaining vivid color and clean aesthetics over years of performance. Their tightly woven, water-resistant structure also offers excellent barrier performance against mold, mildew, and staining—critical advantages for restaurant patios, hospitality venues, and other high-traffic commercial installations.
For even greater longevity or specialized applications, Goodwin‑Cole also offers commercial-grade vinyl-coated polyester fabrics, known for robust strength, tear resistance, and environmental durability. These laminated materials provide heavy-duty reinforcement, moisture resilience, and flame-retardant options—ideal for seaside venues, exposed rooftops, or high-wear situations where added durability is essential. All fabric selections prioritized for our commercial awnings come with extended warranties from reputable manufacturers (often 5–10 years), ensuring confidence in long-term performance and return on investment.
