We pride ourselves on innovation, and look forward to working with you to bring your SunShade ideas to life. The most common features of the design to be modified are typically the "outriggers" and the "blades", which some refer to as "louvers" or "louvres". The outriggers can be round or square, and can be tube, pipe, or plate. Each creates a different look, and also must be examined structurally within the context of engineering. The blades or louvres can be straight or curved, and even airfoil style blades are quite popular. Other designs feature square or round stock running between the outriggers, creating a unique architectural look to the finished sunshade system. Component materials vary between aluminum, steel, and stainless steel, with aluminum being the most popular by far due to its comparatively light weight and low maintenance.

Commercial SunShade Finish Options - Florida

Mill finish, anodized, and powder coating are the most popular finishes for ornamental sunshades in Florida. The best choice for your project is dependent upon a number of variables, including your budget, though many find the increased upfront cost of more expensive finishes to be money well spent in the long run. On the other hand, with the rising costs of custom finishes, and the rust-free nature of aluminum, many Florida SunShade projects are opting to go with Mill Finish of late.
