Hottest Retro Trend: Clam Shell Awnings

     A popular feature on windows in the 1950's, clam shell awnings have made a trendy comeback and are being sought after by home and business owners throughout the country. Once intended to shade the home from hot sun or inclement weather, clam shell awnings are now also specifically valued for their curb appeal.  The charming scalloped edges of a clam shell awning cast a retro feel to the exterior of residential and commercial properties while still offering the protective properties for which they were originally designed.  Lightweight and easily adjustable, our clam shell awnings are available in impact and non-impact varieties and are offered in many complimentary colors. Providing shade and protection to your home or office, these energy-saving awnings are a practical and stylish choice. When lowered and secured, our awnings are not only theft deterring but also provide a sturdy shield from the elements. For protection against more intensive, tropical storms, winds and airborne debris, our impact resistant awnings are the best choice. Manufactured with added reinforcement ribbing and aluminum-backed for optimal strength and endurance, impact-resistant clam shell awnings by Empire Construction & Development have passed Miami/Dade County's wind and impact standards, which include some of the most vigorous standards in the country.
