Welcome to Canada’s Online Fabric Awning Store

Custom Awnings Direct From The Manufacturer

How Do I Know Which Retractable Awning Model Suits My Situation?

Betterliving™ Retractable Awnings are available in no less than FIVE models! They have many options like Motors, Hoods, Lighted Front Bar, Vario Valance, Smart Phone operation, and more. They are made in North America, with all the quality and options a sophisticated consumer would expect. There are a few online awning stores out there, but watch for the ones that offer a limited selection of off-shore inventory. To our knowledge no other Canadian awning store matches our incredible selection. So here is the run down:

Model 1 – Semi Cassette Retractable Awning

  • Our most popular
  • Three frame colours: White, Sand and Earthstone
  • Hidden fasteners and a very clean look
  • Lots of projections to choose from and widths up to 41 feet wide
  • Lots of options like Vario Valance, and Light Bar, Motor, Somfy myLink™ smart phone operation and more

Model 2 – Narrow Width Retractable Awning

  • We call it “Slim-Fit”, for narrow widths
  • The folding arms overlap each other, allowing a narrow awning to project farther
  • First try Model 1, if the width you need is not available, then try Slim-Fit
  • Options like Hood, Vario Valance, Light Bar, Somfy myLink™ smart phone operation and more

Model 4 – Full Cassette Retractable Awning

  • We call it “Manor”, the uber awning, for those who want it all
  • All the same great features of Model 1, but in a Full Cassette
  • “Full Cassette” means that the fabric roll is completely encased in an aluminum housing, and when it is closed the large front profile completely closes the awning
  • It does not offer a hood option since the full cassette design already acts as a hood, but other options include motor, Somfy myLink™ smart phone operation and more
