Window awnings are increasing in popularity every year with property owners. Whether you are installing awnings on your home or your commercial property, window awnings offer many practical and far-reaching benefits. At Carroll Architectural Shade, we have spent decades designing and installing original awnings for our customers throughout DC, Maryland, and Northern Virginia. No matter what the existing style of your building, when you install Washington DC window awnings, you can create something beautiful and practical. The following advantages can be enjoyed when you install new, durable window awnings.

Improve Your Property’s Curb Appeal

When you install Washington DC window awnings, you add a beautiful new accessory to your building. An original awning from Carroll Architectural Shade will instantly improve your home or business’s appearance and curb appeal. You can explore a variety of styles to find what looks best for your specific home design. 

Block Rain 

Keeping rain away from your windows is beneficial for a few reasons. First, by redirecting rainfall away from your windows, you can open your windows on cool, rainy days to take in the calming sound and smell of rainfall without letting rain into your property. Secondly, your awning will prevent water from reaching your window sill and trim and causing water damage to these areas. 

Design Versatility 

The variety of window awnings available is what makes them so popular. You can use awnings instead of other window frames and with other window styles like casements, bay or bow windows, gliding, double-hung, picture windows, and more. Awnings are one of the most cost-effective ways to provide a unique and enduring style to your building exterior. 

Enjoy Extra Savings

Most people would love to find a way to keep their properties cool throughout summer without relying on constant air conditioning. One of the best ways to achieve this is to block the sun’s heat before it enters your property. Awnings are some of the most effective shade tools and can minimize solar heat intake by up to 77%. If you want the option of opening or closing your window awnings on hot or cool days, install retractable awnings for maximum versatility. 

Enhanced UV Protection 

UV (ultraviolet) rays from the sun can harm your property if it enters through your windows. When exposed to direct sunshine and its UV rays, the colors of your walls, furniture, carpets, and artwork can fade over time. Window awnings help block that direct sunlight and keep your interior furnishings vibrant. 

Create a Customized Look 

When creating your Washington, DC, window awnings with Carroll Architectural Shade, you can customize your awning to your preference. You can select from a variety of colors to find the best shade that complements the siding or paint of your building. You can also decide the best patterns and frame design to craft a new awning that is durable and uniquely yours.
