Why Sunesta Stands Apart
Built to a higher standard than the rest of the market
Sunesta has manufactured retractable awnings in Jacksonville, Florida since 1981 — pursuing engineering benchmarks most awning brands have never attempted.
The only wind-rated awning
Sunesta is the first and only retractable awning approved under Miami-Dade County and Florida Building Code standards for wind resistance — verified for sustained high-velocity conditions.
Made to fit your home
Every awning is fabricated to order — widths up to 40 feet, projection to 14’8″, and over 100 fabric options in solution-dyed acrylic. Built to your space, not a size chart.
The only lifetime frame warranty
A lifetime limited frame warranty — the only one offered by any retractable awning manufacturer in the U.S. — plus 10-year fabric and motor coverage, transferable to the next homeowner.
Customization
A system that fits your home — not a catalog
Where lower-tier brands leave you adapting to preset sizes and a handful of fabrics, every Sunesta is built to your exact specifications before a single component ships.
- Width up to 40 ft with projection to 14’8″ — one of the widest ranges in the residential market
- Over 100 fabric options in solution-dyed acrylic that holds color under prolonged UV
- Smart Pitch arm adjustment for precise angle control in a single adjustment
- Smart Drop drop-down valance for low-angle sun along the front edge
- Optional aluminum hood that seals and protects rolled fabric when retracted
Motorization & Smart Controls
Shade that manages itself
Motorized Sunesta awnings run by remote, wall switch, or app — and pair with the smart-home platform you already use.
- Works with Google Home, Amazon Alexa, and Apple HomeKit
- Wind sensors retract automatically when winds cross a preset threshold
- Sun sensors extend at a set UV level and retract when conditions shift
- Skin Cancer Foundation–endorsed fabrics with up to 98% UV protection
- Manual crank systems carry the same structure, fabric, and warranty standards
Warranty Coverage
Protection that holds up to scrutiny
Read the actual terms — Sunesta’s coverage is structured to outlast the competition, and every Paul Construction install adds a second layer on top.
The product is warrantied by the manufacturer. The installation is warrantied by us through our Lifetime Workmanship Guarantee. Those protections run independently — so you’re covered from both sides.
How It Compares
Sunesta vs. a typical entry-level awning
Entry-level and DIY-oriented brands keep upfront costs low with catalog sizing and lighter warranties. For a custom-fit, certified system, the comparison resolves clearly.
| Feature | Sunesta | Typical DIY / Catalog Awning |
|---|---|---|
| Sizing | Custom-built to 40 ft wide | Preset widths (often 8–20 ft) |
| Fabric options | 100+ solution-dyed acrylic | ~28–30 choices |
| Wind certification | Miami-Dade / FL Building Code | None |
| Frame warranty | Lifetime, limited | Typically pro-rated / 10-yr |
| Installation | Factory-authorized, no subcontractors | DIY or loose dealer network |
FAQs
Common questions about Sunesta
How long does a Sunesta awning take from order to install?
Most Sunesta awnings are ready within two to three weeks of order. Installation itself typically takes one to two days, handled entirely by our own team — no subcontractors at any stage.
Can a Sunesta awning handle Pennsylvania storms?
Sunesta is the first and only retractable awning certified to Miami-Dade and Florida Building Code wind-resistance standards. Optional wind sensors retract the awning automatically when winds cross a preset threshold — useful for the fast-moving storms common across the Delaware Valley.
Do you offer motorized and manual options?
Both. Motorized systems operate by remote, wall switch, or app and integrate with Google Home, Alexa, and Apple HomeKit. Manual crank systems carry the same structural standards, fabric quality, and warranty coverage.
What does the warranty actually cover?
A lifetime limited frame warranty (the only one in the U.S.), 10 years on fabric, and 10 years on the motor with 5 years on controls and electronics. The coverage is transferable to the next homeowner, and our Lifetime Workmanship Guarantee covers the installation separately.
What areas do you serve?
We serve Philadelphia, Montgomery, and Bucks counties in Pennsylvania, plus Camden and Gloucester counties in South Jersey, from our Skippack, PA showroom.
