Storage Sheds, Screen Rooms and Carports

Posted on April 5, 2013 by Tom Haggett

Haggetts Aluminum offers more than clamshell aluminum awnings here in the Central Florida. We have been building custom storage sheds, screen rooms and car ports for our valued customers east of the Orlando area.

Consider having a storage shed installed beside your home or mobile home in Cocoa Florida in Brevard County or other Atlantic coastal county cities of Central Florida. They are great for organization and help keep your garage and living spaces clean and tidy. You could even use the shed as workshop or to store such items as a riding lawnmower.

A screen room is a great idea to protect your tables, chairs and other porch furniture. Adding a screen room gives you and your guests a place to spend time while keeping the flying insects out.

A carport can shade your car from the sun, protect it from rain and hail, and shield it from debris such as falling branches. In Central Florida the weather can change in a moment and rainstorms can occur without warning. A carport can keep you dry from the car door to the front door.

Sizing for the Angle of the Sun

Posted on March 20, 2013 by Tom Haggett

Aluminum awnings are generally used to protect your home from the elements such as wind, rain and the sun. The sun can beat down pretty hard sometimes, so you may need to think about the direction that the sun’s rays shine on your home. When having aluminum awnings installed on your home, you should consider factors such sizing for the angle of the sun.

The best way to get full coverage is to note how the sun angles into the home during various times of the day and on different periods throughout the year. This observation lets you know how long the awning needs to be in order to provide enough coverage to shade your windows but still allow enough light into the room.

The amount of distance the awning extends outward from the plane of the window surface is known as the projection of the awning. This measurement is used to effectively block sunlight from the window. This number may need to be adjusted depending upon the angle of the sun at various times of the day.

It may be necessary for certain windows to be more shielded from the sun’s rays than others. Consider which windows have the most time spent in front of them, and make sure those are well protected.

Aluminum Awning Types

Posted on November 20, 2012 by Tom Haggett

Aluminum awnings are popular all around the world for both residential and commercial facets, with many different types for different looks and purposes.

Aluminum awnings have been popular in both commercial and residential applications worldwide for a long time. Being versatile and fashionable for your doors and windows, aluminum awnings have had to adapt to many styles of buildings such as mobile homes and businesses. Consider the many types of aluminum awnings there are to choose from.

Retractable awnings are becoming more popular with homeowners in the United States. Retractable awnings include lateral arm awnings, side or drop-arm awnings, portable, pop-up canopies, and solar shade screens.

Lateral arm awnings are a modern version of the old storefront crank awnings of the last century. Tension arms and a roller bar are supported by a torsion bar which fits into wall or soffit brackets that spread the load to the width of the wall. Hand-cranked awnings are still available, but motorized awnings are now most common.

Side or drop-arm awnings are commonly used to shade a window, with a roller at the top and spring-loaded side arms. These generally use a motor or crank or tape-pull operator.

Portable pop-up canopies provide a cost-effective temporary solution to those who want to enjoy shade. The frame uses a compact accordion-style truss which offers versatility to take the unit to social events.

Shade screens use canvas or a mesh fabric to allow some view while blocking the sun’s rays. The roller at the top may be hand-cranked or motorized, and the fabric is gravity-fed, with a weighted bottom rail pulling the fabric down between guide rails or guy wires.

If you are in Brevard County or other Atlantic coastal county cities of Central Florida, be sure to contact us today at 321-978-5500 for new custom aluminum awnings for your home or business. We are an aluminum awning manufacturer in Cocoa Florida and service Atlantic coastal counties of Florida and surrounding areas.
