Manual Retractable Awnings
Classic crank operation, smart-awning quality — from $2,033.
What Is a Manual Awning?
A manual retractable awning operates with a simple hand crank — no motor, no electricity, no app needed. You get the same premium Canadian-made awning, the same Copentek acrylic fabric, and the same 10-year awning warranty as our smart systems, just without the motorized convenience.
It's the budget-friendly alternative for homeowners who want reliable retractable shade without paying for motorization. And if you ever change your mind, a Somfy motor can be added later.
- Same premium Copentek acrylic fabric
- Same folding arms and roller tube
- Same 10-year awning warranty
- Simple, reliable hand-crank operation
- No electrical work required
Why Choose a Manual Awning?
Save Money
Remove the motor and save hundreds. Same awning quality at a lower price point.
Simple & Reliable
No motor means fewer components to maintain. A hand crank never needs a battery or Wi-Fi.
Full Warranty
Same 10-year awning warranty as our smart systems. Fabric, frame, and arms are identical.
Flexible Shade
Extend for afternoon shade, retract in the evening. Crank operation takes just seconds.
Upgrade Later
Want motorization down the road? A Somfy motor can be added to your manual awning in the future.
No Electrical Work
No outlet, no wiring, no electrician. Perfect for locations without nearby power.
