Types of Businesses That Benefit from Awnings

The majority of commercial structures in the Valley can potentially benefit from awnings of some type, whether for entrances, front windows or any other exterior-facing windows or doors. Some common ways businesses use awnings include:



  • Restaurants and Cafes: These businesses use awnings to expand their seating areas, allowing them to serve more customers simultaneously. Awnings provide a comfortable outdoor dining experience, boosting revenue potential​​.
  • Retail Stores: Awnings can enhance a retail storefront's visibility in retail plazas or strip malls, making the shop stand out and attracting more foot traffic.
  • Banks and Financial Institutions: Awnings offer relief to customers who may have to wait outside or those who are just using the ATM, providing protection from sun and rain​​.
  • Hotels and Hospitality Businesses: Hospitality businesses of all types utilize awnings to create inviting entrances and comfortable outdoor seating areas.
  • Healthcare Facilities: Awnings can provide a shaded waiting area outside clinics or hospitals, improving patient and visitor comfort.
  • Educational Institutions: Schools and colleges can use awnings to create outdoor learning or recreational spaces. Schools also typically use shade structures of some kind for outdoor courts or playgrounds in the Phoenix area.

Benefits of Awnings for Storefronts

When it comes to driveway awnings, there is no shortage of design options to choose from. Homeowners have the flexibility to select fabric styles and colors that align with their preferences and the architectural features of their building.

  • Enhanced Visibility

    A storefront awning is a powerful tool in making your business stand out. Branded awnings are particularly useful for businesses with multiple locations, helping them to be easily recognizable. Many nationwide chains have strict branding requirements for franchisees, making your choice of awning installer important. The team at Arizona Awnings maintains precise control over things like logos and colors to ensure our clients remain in compliance with corporate branding requirements.

  • Protection Against the Elements and Enhanced Energy Efficiency

    Commercial awnings protect customers from inclement weather, enhancing their experience. They also protect interior furnishings from sun damage, reducing the need for frequent replacements or repairs. Blocking direct sun into large front windows or exterior windows can also have a dramatic effect on heat transference in the summer, reducing the strain on your business’s HVAC system while enhancing comfort. 

  • Offers Additional Space

    Particularly beneficial for cafes and restaurants, awnings allow for the expansion of serviceable areas. This outdoor ambiance attracts more customers, potentially increasing revenues.

  • Keeps Outdoor Space Clean

    Awnings protect outdoor spaces from debris like leaves and bird droppings, maintaining cleanliness.

  • Differentiate Your Business From Neighbors

    The size of commercial awnings makes them ideal for attracting attention. In a metro area like the Valley, where a large percentage of businesses are located in crowded outdoor malls, retail plazas or strip malls, it can be hard to get your storefront to stand out from your neighbors. Businesses can have their logo or recognizable company colors printed on their storefront awning, turning the awning into an eye-catching promotional tool.
