A rectangle of dark fabric on steel supports tucked right inside the door or window jamb like philippe s looks sophisticated without being stuffy.

The strong steel support arms and aluminum front and back trims of this door awning are sleek and stylish. The wood awning should extend at least one foot past both sides of the door and be positioned at least three feet above the door. This is due to the fibrous siding material s weakening over time as stress is placed on the material from the awning. The key is to go as simple as possible.

During the summer the heat can be unbearable not to mention the risk of getting skin cancer from the harmful ultraviolet rays.
