Retractable Awnings
Our retractable awnings provide adaptable shade solutions for patios, decks, and commercial spaces. Constructed with durable aluminum frames and UV-resistant fabrics, these systems allow precise control over sunlight exposure while maintaining aesthetic appeal. The motorized operation ensures effortless adjustment, making them ideal for both residential and business applications requiring versatile outdoor coverage.
Patio Roofs
Duraform aluminum patio roofs offer permanent protection against weather elements while maintaining architectural integrity. These customizable systems feature seamless integration with existing structures, thermal efficiency, and resistance to heavy snow loads. Available in acrylic, aluminum, or louvered configurations, they transform outdoor spaces into year-round usable areas without compromising design aesthetics.
Roll Shutters
Engineered for maximum protection, our roll shutters defend against vandalism, storms, and unauthorized entry. Custom-fabricated from reinforced materials with advanced locking mechanisms, these systems provide both security and insulation benefits. Commercial and residential clients benefit from manual or electric operation options tailored to specific security requirements and building codes.
Patio Enclosures
Fixed screen and glass-aluminum enclosures extend living spaces while blocking pests and UV radiation. Our designs combine tempered glass panels with corrosion-resistant frames to create weatherproof environments. These structures enhance property value through increased usable square footage and energy-efficient climate control for patios and decks.
Retractable Screens
Exterior retractable screens manage solar heat gain and privacy without obstructing views. The 5-panel box system allows complete retraction when not in use, maintaining architectural lines. UV-stabilized mesh fabrics mounted in durable aluminum casings provide energy savings through reduced cooling costs while keeping insects and glare at bay.

We love our new awning. Very good quality materials used. The colour we purchased fits in very well with the colours of our home..Very easy to lower and raise. The people at Jans were very friendly and knowledgeable. We would highly recommend Jans if you are looking for an awning.

I am more than happy to give a review on Jans Awning Products. From start to finish everything went smoothly. My reason for wanting an awning over my front step was so that I could sit comfortably and watch the world go by...so nice to see so many neighbours out walking their dogs and stopping to chat. And now everyone is so impressed with my new awning! Thank you Kurt for your quote and Steve for making it all happen!

We had roll shutters installed at our cottage on Lake Erie. From start to finish, Jans Awnings is a company that we would highly recommend. Every exchange with the office was very pleasant and we found the staff to be very knowledgeable. Anson did our installation, which required a lot of extra work due to the placement of our windows. He was professional, polite and had impeccable attention to detail when installing our shutters. He left the site as if no one was ever there and we are so pleased with the look and the shutter quality is amazing. From start to finish, this is a company that we would

I read all the good reviews so trusted Jans Awning would deliver and they did. The entire process beginning with the first call to set up a sales appointment to the final installation was smooth, friendly and professional. I got great advice on which fabric to select, the size, the trim, the motor etc. I put my trust in them and so glad I did. Love our awning - it's gorgeous and great quality.

Professional, knowledgeable, reliable and a pleasure to deal with. Our motorized awning was installed today, just in time for the beginning of the summer season. From the original sales visit to dealing with the office staff and finally the installation team, top notch product & service. Thanks for a fantastic job!
