If you’re investing in a custom retractable awning for your home or business, pairing it with smart accessories is one of the best ways to enhance its performance and maximize your comfort. At Carroll Architectural Shade, we proudly offer Sunesta’s line of smart accessories, designed to provide homeowners and business owners with increased control, convenience, and durability.
Here’s how to use some of the most effective smart awning accessories to get the most from your shade system.
Smart Control: Take Command of Your Shade
The Smart Control system allows you to manage your awnings with ease. Whether you’re at home or away, you can extend or retract your awning with a remote or integrated smart device. This added flexibility makes it easier than ever to adapt to changing sunlight or weather conditions throughout the day with no manual effort required.
Smart Case and Smart Hood: Long-Term Fabric Protection
To extend the life of your awning, it’s crucial to protect the fabric and mechanism when not in use. The Smart Case offers protection for the fabric when the awning is retracted, helping prevent fading, tearing, or damage from debris.
Pair it with the Smart Hood, which provides extra overhead protection for the awning’s hardware. These two smart awning accessories work together to ensure your awning remains in top condition, especially through seasonal changes.
Smart Drop: Add Privacy and Vertical Shade
The Smart Drop is a vertical extension that adds another layer of functionality to your awning. It can be lowered to block harsh, low-angle sunlight or to provide extra privacy on patios, decks, or outdoor dining areas. This is particularly beneficial for businesses with sidewalk seating or homeowners with close neighbors.
Smart Power and Smart Tilt: Adjust with Ease
Smart Power ensures that your awning operates smoothly and effortlessly with the push of a button. It’s ideal for anyone who wants reliable, low-maintenance operation—perfect for motorized systems.
Need better sun coverage throughout the day? The Smart Tilt allows you to adjust the angle of your awning, so you can maintain the perfect amount of shade no matter where the sun is.
Smart Lights: Illuminate Your Outdoor Space
When the sun sets, Smart Lights help keep your outdoor space usable and welcoming. These LED lights are built into the awning structure and are dimmable, so you can set the perfect ambiance for relaxing evenings or entertaining guests.
These smart awning accessories are especially useful for restaurants, cafes, or homeowners who want to extend their outdoor hours with safe and stylish lighting.
Sunesta Smart Mounts: Reinforce Strength and Safety
Smart accessories aren’t just about comfort, they’re also about security. Sunesta’s Smart Mounting systems enhance your awning’s structural stability, especially during strong winds or storms:
- Smart Mount Pull-Up Kit: Provides extra support and tension to your awning frame.
- Smart Mount Storm Strap: Offers added security during inclement weather, keeping your awning firmly in place.
- Smart Mount Rafter Bars: Reinforce the entire installation, especially important for larger or customized awnings.
These mounts are essential for homes and businesses in regions where the weather can change quickly or where extra reinforcement is needed for peace of mind.
