| Question |
How much does an awning
cost? |
| Answer |
A number of factors determine the pricing
of an awning. We manufacture several different styles of awnings, some fairly basic, some
with wind-resistant arms, some motorized, and even some with remote control. We also manufacture a myriad of sizes for various applications.
Your awning will be custom-manufactured to meet your needs.
So invite us out to your home to enable us to give you
the information and pricing you require. |
| Question |
What sizes do you carry? |
| Answer |
As a national manufacturer, we can make
virtually any size you require. Our maximum projection out from the building is 13’,
the largest projection on the market. Your awning can be made any width along the building
you desire. |
| Question |
What about the warranty? |
| Answer |
MacDonald Awnings carry a
minimum five year
warranty. This includes the hardware, fabric, and motorization, if so equipped. |
| Question |
How are the awnings
attached to the building? |
| Answer |
We can mount your awning onto brick,
aluminum siding, under soffits, even in front of the eavestroughing. Unlike other
companies,
we try to keep your awning off the roof. |
| Question |
Can you tell me about
the fabric? |
| Answer |
The fabric that we use to manufacture our
awnings, unless otherwise specified, is a solution-dyed acrylic material. Unlike cottons
or canvas, this acrylic is resistant against rot, mould, and mildew. This tightly woven
fabric is 98-99% UV and water-resistant. There is a
five year warranty on the fabric but you should expect many more years of service from
this material. |
| Question |
Can my awning be
motorized? |
| Answer |
A motor can be used to send your awning out
and to retract it back in. A hand-held remote control or an outdoor switch in a weatherproof box may be used. You may
also opt for an indoor switch to be installed right beside your patio door. With either
switch you select, you will be the envy of your neighbourhood. |
| Question |
Can I add a motor later? |
| Answer |
We strongly recommend you have the motor
installed when you order your awning, as the labour involved with removing the awning,
returning it to our shop, installing the motor, and re-installing the awning at your home
will be very costly, not to mention inconvenient to you. |
| Question |
I’ve decided what
awning and options I want. How soon will my awning be ready? |
| Answer |
We will do our best to have your awning
installed within three weeks of your order being placed. This time period may be greater
or less, depending on the availability of your fabric colour choice, and whether it is
‘peak’ awning season. |
