product 03 — the classic

retractable awnings.

Motorized, cassette-housed awnings that extend for shade and retract flush against the house when you don’t need them. Three decades of installation experience across South Jersey, the Shore, and Maryland — from slim residential units to 24-foot commercial estate models.

Retractable awning installation by SJB Outdoor Living
i. what it is

shade, on demand.

A retractable awning is an aluminum-framed, fabric-covered awning housed in a slim cassette mounted to the fascia of your home or an independent post structure. It extends on motorized arms to cover a patio, deck, or window, and retracts fully back into the cassette when not in use. No posts in your yard, no permanent structure, no permits in most jurisdictions — and fully retracted, it disappears into a clean aluminum line along your roofline.

i.

no structure, no permit

Retractable awnings don’t count as permanent structures in most jurisdictions. Install in a day. No setbacks, no engineering drawings, no HOA approvals in most cases.

ii.

wind-rated motors

Somfy motors with optional wind and sun sensors that retract automatically above threshold. Stay extended in light breeze, retract in gusts.

iii.

fabric selection

Sunbrella and Dickson marine-grade acrylics in 200+ colors and patterns. 10-year UV warranty on fabric. Waterproof options available.

ii. the line
