Metal awnings designed around the building

A metal awning is a permanent part of the facade, so the proportions and attachment matter as much as the finish. We review the wall, openings, signs, lights, drainage, and access before setting the projection, slope, frame, and panel direction.

Commercial and residential applications

Universal Awning fabricates custom metal awnings for retail storefronts, restaurant entries, office windows, service doors, and selected residential projects.

Choose a profile that fits the facade

Options can include standing-seam awnings, flat-panel systems, open-slat designs, and custom infill over a fabricated frame. Aluminum or steel framing and the final finish are selected for the design, exposure, span, and project requirements. Our metal versus fabric awning guide explains where each type works best.

Plan the details before fabrication

We measure each opening and review mounting conditions, clearances, drainage, signs, lighting, utilities, access, and repeated dimensions. Drawings, materials, attachment details, and installation requirements are confirmed before fabrication begins.

Coordinate the full storefront

When a building has several awnings, we coordinate the height, projection, panel direction, support details, and finish across the facade. This is especially important for retail centers, offices, and restaurant properties with repeated windows or tenant entrances.
