Installing an awning for your customers is a simple and value-building way to provide a greater customer experience.
A commercial awning installed at a restaurant in the heart of San Francisco can provide relief from sun or light rain for foodies waiting in those long lines.
The summer heat can be easily beat by our commercial awnings in San Jose and other South Bay cities – providing relief both indoors and out.

The main function of awning is, of course, to provide shade and comfort. Prior to air conditioning, many homes and businesses relied on awnings to help keep cool.
Did you know that retractable commercial awnings minimize solar heat gains? According to the National Park Service Presentation Brief, motorized retractable awnings can reduce heat gains up to 77 percent in east-facing windows and 65 percent in south-facing windows.
That means awnings offer a simple and green solution to keep your business cool – which decreases the need for excessive air conditioning and ultimately lowers monthly energy bills. They also will protect your curtains, floors, rugs and furniture from sun damage.

Additional Functional Perks of Commercial Awnings
In addition to offering your business energy savings and a polished look for a striking first impression, ERS retractable awnings also increase space and give businesses flexible options. They instantly offer comfortable outdoor, shaded seating which is advantageous for businesses that require more space to accommodate customers.
Commercial awnings have come a long way. Today’s high-tech awnings offer added convenience and control over dated fixed awnings, metal awning or crank-based awnings.
Our retractable awnings can be installed with awning wind sensors and other weather sensors. These weather sensors on retractable awnings will automatically retract the awning during extreme weather to prevent damage.
The vast majority of our awnings are electrically-controlled with Somfy automation systems. This allows business owners to conveniently control awnings with a remote, wall switch or the Somfy myLink app on their smartphone or tablet.
