Parkville's affluent homeowners appreciate outdoor spaces as much as interior design. Our motorized retractable awnings are perfect for the area's mix of historic estates and newer construction along the bluffs. The Missouri River valley's afternoon sun exposure makes UV protection essential here—our awnings block up to 97% of UV rays, protecting both your skin and outdoor furniture. For entertaining at riverside properties or pool areas near the nature sanctuary, motorized control means you can adjust shade without leaving guests. Parkville's spring winds occasionally gust from the river, so our wind sensors automatically retract awnings for safety. These awnings pay for themselves through reduced air conditioning costs during our hot summers.
