Adjustable Awnings for Windows and Porches

Drop Arm awnings let you adjust the fabric angle over windows or porch openings. The pivoting arms provide a different style of coverage from a patio awning that extends farther over a deck.

Control Sunlight and Your View

Lower the awning for more coverage when the sun is low. Raise or retract it when you want more light or a more open view. Manual and motorized configurations are available.

Plan Your Installation

Earth Ideas Awnings can help you compare fabrics, frame finishes and mounting arrangements for your Houston-area home or business. We will confirm the size, controls and any protective hood option for your installation.

Eclipse Drop Arm Awning Questions & Answers

Where are Drop Arm awnings used?

They are designed for windows and porch openings. Pivoting arms change the fabric angle to help control sunlight and the view through the opening.

How is a Drop Arm different from a patio awning?

A Drop Arm pivots downward over an opening. A lateral-arm patio awning extends farther outward to shade a deck or patio. We can help you choose the appropriate style.

Can Drop Arm awnings be manual?

Yes. Manual and motorized configurations are available. We will confirm suitable controls, access and any electrical requirements for your installation.

Will a Drop Arm help with low-angle sun?

Lowering the fabric can help shade an opening when the sun is low. Actual coverage depends on the mounting position, opening size and sun direction.

Can I choose fabric and a protective hood?

Ask about current fabric colors, frame finishes and an optional protective hood. Availability and mounting requirements depend on the configuration.
