We’re here to inspire your style and provide an outdoor cover that satisfies you for years.

Why Invest in Commercial Awnings?

Commercial awnings are more than just a design feature, they are a smart investment that enhances function, customer experience, and your brand presence. Here’s how:
  • Weather Protection: Shield your storefront and customers from NYC’s rain, snow, and intense sun, keeping your entrance dry and welcoming.
  • Energy Efficiency: Reduce interior heat gain by shading windows and doors, lowering your reliance on A/C and cutting utility costs.
  • Expanded Outdoor Space: Add functional square footage for dining, retail displays, or customer seating, especially valuable for cafes and restaurants.
  • UV Defense: Our high-quality fabrics block harmful UV rays to protect furnishings, merchandise, and customers.
  • Brand Visibility: Awnings double as signage. Custom graphics, logos, and lettering ensure your storefront stands out and drives recognition.
  • Durability & Low Maintenance: Our awnings are built from premium materials that withstand harsh weather and require minimal upkeep.
Whether you’re attracting more foot traffic, creating outdoor ambiance, or extending usable space, a Capitol Awning is a smart and stylish solution.
