Every awning we make is built to order. We do not sell off-the-shelf products. Our team will come to your property, take measurements, and work with you on a design that fits your building and your budget.
We work with Sunbrella’s Firesist line and Sattler’s Firemaster products. Both are commercial-grade fabrics that meet or exceed Florida’s building codes for flame-retardant characteristics. Frames are powder-coated aluminum, which holds up well against Florida’s heat, humidity, and coastal conditions.
We offer a wide range of awning shapes and valance styles to fit your building.
Your awning can be designed to accept graphics provided by the signage maker of your choice. We do not provide graphics directly, but know how to make an awning so it is ready for graphics when you are.
Whether you need a single window awning, an entrance canopy, a walkway cover, or shade over an outdoor seating area, we design and install it all.
We have installed fixed awnings and canopies for businesses across every industry in the Tampa Bay area, including restaurants and bars, retail storefronts, hotels and hospitality properties, medical and dental offices, office buildings, industrial and warehouse facilities, fitness centers, and schools and municipal buildings.
If your business needs shade or weather protection, give us a call and we will talk through your options.
Fixed awnings provide permanent shade and continuous weather protection without any daily operation required. They are generally more durable and more customizable than retractable systems, and they are well-suited for high-traffic commercial use.
Retractable awnings give you the option to extend or retract coverage as conditions change. Both types are custom-built to fit your space.
If you are not sure which is the better fit for your property, we are happy to walk through the options with you during a free on-site estimate. For a full look at everything we offer, visit our Commercial Awnings page.

We recently had West Coast Awnings install an awning over our outdoor bar, and we couldn’t be happier with how it turned out! A special shout-out to Damien and Ken, our installers—they were fantastic to work with and made the installation a great experience. We really appreciate their hard work and couldn’t have asked for a better team. The awning is a great addition to our outdoor bar, and we’re looking forward to enjoying the space even more. Highly recommend West Coast Awnings, and a big thank-you to Damien and Ken!Posted on Google![]()

We received estimates from West Coast Awning and another company. Hands down, the people we interacted with from West Coast at our home were the absolute best. Professional, courteous, listened to what we wanted to do and, when it was discovered the awning choice we wanted wasn't going to work with our windows, let us know BEFORE any work was done, and we were able to pivot to a mutually satisfactory design and install. Highly recommend. Jimmy (the salesman); Mike (the engineer) and Robert and Zach (the installers) along with their company will definitely get our repeat business.Posted on Google![]()

We had a center post (3 vertical posts - one of which was directly in the center of our view of our backyard) that needed to go. Obscured our view and made arranging the furniture in the back a nightmare. Rick helped guide us on what needed to be done and roughly 9/1, said he would almost certainly be able to do it by the end of September. West Coast Awnings has always kept their word and sure enough, 9/30/2026, the post is removed and it is done. Thank you, Rick. I especially want to thank Robert and Zach, the 2 gentlemen who came out on time to do the work. They were quick and cleaned up afterward. VERY happy with West Coast Awnings and especially Rick and Zach! Thank you!Posted on Google![]()

My wife and I are so pleased with how our retractable awning came out. Prior to installation, we could not sit out on our back patio it was so hot during the day. It feels like it's 20 degrees cooler underneath the awning. Damien and Ken took great care of us.+0Posted on Google![]()

We worked with Jimmy from West Coast Awnings and would highly recommend him and this company for awnings. He was friendly, knowledgeable and easy to work with. The production was on time and the installation came out great. We went with a decorative black metal awning to coordinate with our black metal roof. Thank you again for a great experience!+0

A fixed awning is permanently mounted and stays in place year-round. A retractable awning can be extended or pulled back as needed. Fixed systems are generally more durable and require less daily attention, making them a popular choice for storefronts, restaurants, and other commercial properties.
Yes. Fixed canopies are a common solution for covering existing outdoor seating areas, walkways, and patios at commercial properties. We will design the system to fit your existing space.
