Motorized Retractable Shade

Shade When You Want It. Open Sky When You Don’t.

Sea Cool installs Sunpro motorized retractable awnings, premium European-engineered systems built for the demands of South Florida sun and Houston heat. Unlike fixed shade structures, retractable awnings give you the flexibility to enjoy full sun on cooler days and instant relief when temperatures climb.

Every system features a Somfy motor with remote or smart-home integration, built-in wind sensors that auto-retract in high gusts, and powder-coated aluminum frames rated for years of coastal exposure. From pool decks to outdoor dining areas, these awnings transform underused outdoor space into comfortable, shaded living.

How do retractable awnings handle high winds?

Every Sunpro system includes a built-in wind sensor that automatically retracts the awning when gusts exceed a safe threshold. In South Florida and coastal Texas, this is a non-negotiable safety feature, your awning protects itself so you don’t have to rush out ahead of a storm.

What’s the difference between a retractable awning and a fixed awning?

Fixed awnings are permanently extended and provide constant shade, but they block natural light even when you want it and can accumulate wind damage over time. Retractable awnings give you control, extend for shade on hot days, retract for full sun on cooler mornings, and protect the fabric during storms by tucking it into a sealed cassette housing.

Can retractable awnings be integrated with my smart home?

Yes. Somfy motors connect to all major smart home platforms including Alexa, Google Home, and Apple HomeKit. You can set time-based schedules, control the awning from your phone, or trigger it automatically based on sun sensors and temperature thresholds.

How long does installation take?

Most residential retractable awning installations are completed in a single day. Our team handles everything from structural mounting to wiring the motor and programming the remote. Commercial installations with wider spans may take 1-2 days depending on the mounting surface and electrical requirements.

What maintenance do retractable awnings require?

Very little. Sunpro fabrics are solution-dyed acrylic that resists fading, mold, and mildew. An occasional rinse with mild soap and water is all that’s needed. The sealed cassette housing keeps the fabric clean and protected when retracted, which dramatically extends its lifespan compared to open-roll systems.
