Motorized Awnings: Frequently Asked Questions
Answers from our Jacksonville & Northeast Florida awning specialists.
How much do motorized awnings cost in Jacksonville, FL?
Most motorized retractable awnings we install across Jacksonville and Northeast Florida run between $3,500 and $8,500, depending on width, projection, fabric grade, and whether you add wind sensors or LED lighting. Because every patio and lanai is different, we provide a free, no-pressure quote after measuring your space. Ask us about flexible financing options .
Can motorized awnings withstand Florida wind and storms?
Yes. Our motorized awnings are engineered for the Florida climate and can be paired with automatic wind sensors that retract the awning when gusts exceed a safe threshold, protecting the fabric and frame. For severe weather, we always recommend retracting the awning fully. Homeowners along the coast in Jacksonville Beach and Ponte Vedra especially benefit from the wind-sensor upgrade.
Are your awnings roof-mount or wall-mount?
We install both. Wall-mount awnings attach to the exterior wall above a door or window and are the most common choice, while roof-mount and soffit-mount options are ideal when wall space is limited or you want a higher clearance. During your free consultation we assess your structure and recommend the mounting method that gives the best coverage and cleanest look.
How long does a motorized awning last?
With proper care, a quality motorized retractable awning lasts 10 to 15 years or more. The aluminum frame and motor are built to last, and the solution-dyed acrylic fabric resists fading in the Florida sun. Retracting the awning during storms and periodically rinsing the fabric will maximize its lifespan. We also back our installations with a manufacturer warranty .
Do you install motorized awnings for businesses and commercial patios?
Absolutely. We install commercial-grade motorized awnings for restaurants, cafés, storefronts, and outdoor dining areas throughout Duval, St. Johns, and Clay counties. Commercial awnings can add branded shade, expand usable outdoor seating, and reduce indoor cooling costs. See our full range of services or contact our team to discuss your project.
What areas do you serve for motorized awning installation?
Cheetah Screens installs motorized awnings across Northeast Florida, including Jacksonville , St. Augustine , Ponte Vedra , St. Johns County , Clay County , and Duval County .
How is a motorized awning operated?
Our motorized awnings extend and retract at the touch of a button using a handheld remote or wall switch, and many models can be integrated with smart-home systems or sun and wind sensors for fully automatic operation. There are no cranks to turn — just press and enjoy the shade.
Can I add lighting or heating to my awning?
Yes. We offer integrated LED lighting strips and dimmable fixtures that mount to the awning frame, plus infrared patio heaters for cooler evenings. These add-ons turn your covered patio into a comfortable, usable space year-round. We can also pair your awning with motorized insect screens for a fully enclosed outdoor room.
