If you’re searching for the right retractable awnings or outdoor shade solutions for your home, whether that’s a retractable awning, screen, or shade, choose the brand homeowners across America have relied on for decades — SunSetter. Known for exceptional craftsmanship, quality materials, and industry‑leading performance, SunSetter has set the standard for shade for nearly 40 years. Below are the many reasons SunSetter continues to be America’s #1 choice for reliable, long‑lasting shade.

American-Designed, American-Built Craftsmanship

Every SunSetter product begins with thoughtful U.S. design and precision engineering. Our retractable awnings, EasyScreen^® retractable screens, and EasyShade^® exterior solar screens are assembled in our North American factories, where each unit is built under strict quality‑control standards to ensure reliable operation and long-term satisfaction. The result: durable, beautifully built shade products designed to perform in real American homes and climates.

Components Built for Lasting Performance

All our awning frame brackets, bars, and arm clamps, as well as our EasyScreen and EasyShade housings and side tracks, are made from durable aluminum with a baked-on powder coat finish that never rusts or needs painting. Most of our components and housings are sourced domestically or through high-quality North American and European suppliers. These components are available in a variety of colors to best match your home's exterior.

Our lateral arm awning models feature dual stainless steel chain systems to resist corrosion for years of worry-free operation. This system also provides the strength to support awning projections up to 13 ft. 1 in. from the home.

These quality materials allow SunSetter to offer awning widths up to 20 ft., EasyScreen widths up to 26 ft., and EasyShades up to 12 ft. for maximum shade coverage and sun protection.

Somfy^® Smooth Operation & Smart Technology

SunSetter motorized products use trusted Somfy^® motors, the industry standard for reliable automation and smart-home connectivity for over 50 years. With one-touch remote control, motorized awnings, screens, and shades can extend or retract effortlessly.

SunSetter products can also be connected and synced with a variety of devices and sensors to automate your awning, EasyScreen, or EasyShade. Make any home a “smart home” and enjoy shade or sun in under 60 seconds with smooth, convenient operation.

Built-In Weather Resistance

SunSetter products are designed for strength, stability, and dependable outdoor performance. Our awnings, EasyScreens®, and EasyShades® are engineered with durable aluminum components and robust support structures to ensure reliable operation during normal weather conditions. For the best long-term performance, we recommend retracting your awning, screen, or shade during strong winds or severe weather.

For added peace of mind, SunSetter offers a variety of weather sensors. When they detect rain or unsafe wind conditions, they automatically retract your awning or screen, so you don’t have to rush outside or worry about protecting your system. The sensor responds instantly, keeping your product safe and secure even when you’re not at home.

For homeowners seeking maximum protection, our Platinum Beyond, full cassette awning model, completely encloses the fabric and hardware. This design shields your awning from rain, UV rays, wind, debris, and even birds. Additionally, our heavy‑duty EasyScreen zipper‑track option enhances wind resistance, offering protection in conditions up to 60 mph and improved impact resistance.

Industry-Leading Warranties for Peace of Mind

Every SunSetter awning, EasyScreen, and EasyShade includes a Limited Warranty against defects in materials and workmanship with coverage up to 10 years, depending on model and fabric selection. For maximum protection, All‑Weather Warranties are also available.

Premium, High-Performance Fabrics

SunSetter offers a variety of high-quality fabric options to match your style and shade needs. Our retractable awnings feature four quality fabric lines with over 60 color options between our Platinum Series and SunSetter Series. The Platinum Series offers our Performance Acrylic and Sunbrella^® fabrics which are both backed by a 10-year Limited Warranty, while the SunSetter Series offers our Woven Acrylic and Laminate fabric lines which are backed by a 5-year Limited Warranty.

EasyScreen fabrics come in a wide selection of the highest quality outdoor screen fabrics to provide insect and UV protection as well as privacy. SunSetter has options that block up to 99% of UV rays and are backed by a 10-year limited warranty.

EasyShade fabrics come standard with a premium vinyl-coated polyester screen that blocks up to 95% of the sun, wind and mist, but still lets in light and air. These premium shades are backed by an up to 10-year limited warranty.
