The Series 2500A Door Canopies that I ordered were delivered very quickly and were extremely easy to install. My wife and I installed two identical awnings in about 5 hours total. And they look great. The canopies cover the entire 4' x 4' landing and will be a welcome addition during the winter rains.

I am very happy with my awning purchased from General Awnings. It is a good quality awning for a reasonable price. Their website was very easy to use. I was able to order online and choose the from various sizes and colors to get exactly what I wanted with no confusion or problems. The awning arrived in the time frame I expected and was packaged very well for transit. The instructions were easy to follow and the awning went together surprisingly quickly with my son helping me. It was easy to install it on the house it and works and looks great. We installed it over my sliding door exiting to my deck. My son is a lot taller than I am and the support arms would have been in the way when walking past them and we couldn’t raise the awning any higher. So I mounted the support arms vertical from the deck handrail and it works perfectly. If I find a need for another awning, I will be ordering from General Awnings again and would recommend them to anyone needing an awning.

Thank you for building some great looking, and tough, awnings. We live in Central Florida and have had two recent hurricanes hit our area. We purchased two of your awnings about nine years ago for installation over two doors on our rental office trailer. They have withstood two hurricanes and quite a few severe thunderstorms and one very damaging hail storm. After nine years, they remain a little faded but otherwise in good shape.
We also purchased three awnings for our rental warehouse and installed them about five months ago. They decorate the front of our otherwise dull exterior, and we were pleased how easy it was for my husband and son to install. They have not been "hurricane" tested yet, but we have had a few good storms and they are doing their job! We had new rental tenants before we had completed renovations on our rental warehouse that we have owned for over 40 years.

Installed awning in April 2016. Exactly the product we desired for protection from sun and rain on the west side of home. In early October the awning withstood a class 3 hurricane (Mathew) on the east coastline of Florida, a block from the beach, for 8 hours as the storm passed. No damage at all.

For 18 years, I would get rained on and wet whenever I came to work in bad weather. The water would pour off the roof onto me while fumbling with the door keys. Not any more! I thought General Awnings offered the most of everything in awnings. It even matched the color of our building! We love it and wished we had bought it a lot sooner.

I like this awning......I had someone put it up right away and I don't believe they had any problems doing it. It's a bit more modern looking than a great many I've seen - it looks lighter and simpler. It protects my dogs from waiting in the rain to get back in and it protects me from stepping on ice right in front of my door. It has a nice shield to keep the water from running down the front.
Be careful and measure enough width and depth so that the wind does not defeat your purpose! It arrived within the time period given in a rolled up package. I recommend this to anyone who wants a more modern looking shelter over your door.......Thank you!

We love our awning. It serves our purpose well. However--it did take us a little while to figure how to connect everything but maybe it's because we are both 81 years old and the old fingers don't work like they used to. If we can do it anyone can.

This is a lovely Masterpiece Awning that I have received. Very easy to set up using the instructional pamphlet provided. Shipped and received in a timely manner as promised by General Awning Co. I've also gotten compliments from some passers-by on the look of this piece.
I would definitely recommend the Awning company to anyone that is looking for good looking and durable awning. I would rate this Awning company and the awning that I have received (5 stars).
Thank you and Best Regards General Awning,

First, let me say "I love this awning". It was a bit of a struggle to assemble as the instructions and diagrams were not very clear. I assembled and disassembled it several times over the course of about four hours before getting it right. Once it was done, the instructions began to make more sense, so I feel they were written for someone who had a little more experience in this area. I would definitely purchase another awning from you should need arise. The actual installation was quickly and easily done.

We were not sure how it would look but after we put it up over the deck double doors it simply finished off the look of the back of the house. It actually looked like it should have been there all the time. It completed and complemented the deck doors and roof. We are very pleased with our door canopy and would recommend one to anyone who needs one. It blocked some of the sky view and thus light from that room but we have well adjusted to that. The benefits highly outweigh any nonbenefit. Thanks for being there. We are very happy with our new awning!
