ADD NEW LIFE & EQUITY TO YOUR HOME
A custom awning turns your patio or deck into an actual outdoor living space; shaded, inviting, and perfectly styled. Whether you're looking to host more outdoor dinners or just enjoy your coffee without baking in the sun, Sunesta awnings let you extend your living space with comfort and elegance.
PROTECT YOUR FURNISHINGS
Jacksonville’s harsh sun can do real damage to furniture, floors, and finishes. UV rays entering your home through unshaded windows can fade carpeting, bleach wood flooring, and break down fabrics over time. With a Sunesta awning blocking the harshest rays before they ever hit the glass, your interior stays cooler, and your belongings stay protected.
PRESERVE YOUR VIEW
Unlike blinds, drapes, or solar film, a Sunesta awning gives you protection from the sun without cutting off your view of the outdoors. Whether you're relaxing by the pool or enjoying the garden, the awning provides shade above while leaving your sightline wide open.
RETAIN ROOM BRIGHTNESS
On bright days, extend your retractable awning to reduce indoor glare and heat. On cooler or overcast days, retract it to brighten your space naturally. Sunesta’s retractable design gives you total flexibility based on weather, time of day, and mood. It’s a better way to manage light without resorting to window treatments that darken the room or clutter your design.
BEAUTY IN DESIGN
Every Sunesta awning is built to be beautiful, not just functional. Frames are sleek, compact, and designed to blend seamlessly into your home’s exterior. Durable white powder-coated finishes resist salt air and corrosion—perfect for Jacksonville’s coastal climate. All nuts, bolts, and brackets are concealed with matching caps for a clean, modern finish.
