ECCO’s motorized, retractable awnings are our best-selling shade products. Customers love the shade and rain protection our retractable awnings offer. Coming in various sizes and customizable fabric colors, patterns, and styles, a motorized retractable awning by ECCO lets you enjoy sun or shade at the touch of a button—with remote, wall control, or even smart voice activation. This product is an ideal choice to turn your unused deck, patio, or balcony into a cool, comfortable place to relax.
ECCO’s pergola systems with canopies are a top choice for homeowners looking for adjustable shade and rain protection around their pool area, patio, deck, or terrace, and especially outdoor dining areas. Our dual-layer canopy systems provide extra protection as the canopy fabric slides across an aluminum frame or under pergola rafters, either manually or motorized. Made in the USA with top-notch materials and fabrics in an array of colors and patterns- our pergolas are built for functionality, durability, and style. Our Pergola Canopies allow you and your guests more ways to enjoy your backyard.
Solar Shades (also known as Motorized Shades) are ideal shade products for outdoor living spaces such as covered patios, porches, balconies, decks, pergolas, sunrooms and pool enclosures. Homeowners also enjoy installing these shade products over garage doors, entryways, sliding glass doors, and windows. These drop-down mesh shades block sun, wind, and bugs without blocking the view. While homeowners love the comfort motorized screens and shades provide to sun-prone spaces, they also enjoy their sleek design that adds beauty to your home. Our Solar Shades are Made in the USA and come in varying degrees of shade capability. Being motorized, you get shade and protection when you want it, and sun when you don’t – all at the touch of a button.
Our Open-Air Cabanas are freestanding shade structures that combine comfort and simplicity with a hint of resort style chic. These versatile Made in the USA shade structures come in a variety of shapes (square, rectangular, or octagonal) with customizable options in your choice of fabric and frame colors. Not only do our Outdoor Cabanas provide your backyard living space with privacy and intimacy, but they also provide shade and can lower the temperature of your space by as much as 20 degrees. Our Custom Cabanas are perfect for a variety of spaces to provide shade and privacy in your backyard. Consider a poolside cabana, patio cabana, or terrace cabana to give a touch of luxury to your outdoor living space.
ECCO’s Tension Shades are sleek, motorized fabric structures that provide retractable sun protection at the touch of a button. The fabric glides smoothly along a custom frame and retracts into a protective cassette when not in use, combining modern design with practical function. These systems can be mounted above or below glass roofs or pergolas, or attached to a wall with supporting legs—perfect for shading patios, large decks, or conservatories with ease and style. Custom made to fit your needs, Tension Shades by ECCO are the latest in new technology to keep you comfortable outdoors.
ECCO’s Horizontal Shades offer a sleek, side-to-side retractable solution for added privacy, wind protection, and lateral sun control on decks, patios, porches, and terraces. Pulled from the side and secured to a wall or post, these shades block low-angle sun, and pair well with ECCO’s vertical shade products. Their ability to create a fabric wall between neighbors, make our Horizontal Shades a fan-favorite of townhouse and condo owners. Customizable in size, color, and fabric weave for desired privacy or light filtration, they are ideal for west-facing spaces. Built with premium materials and backed by ECCO’s best-in-class warranty, Horizontal Shades combine function, style, and lasting performance.
A growing trend for homeowners looking for a sleek modern outdoor living space with style and function is our Louvered Roof Pergola System. Stand-alone structures built from heavy-duty aluminum, these premium pergolas feature remote controlled adjustable roof slats that open or close to control sunlight and ventilation. Homeowners love the remote operated built-in LED lights to extend the use of your outdoor space, late into the night.
If you are looking for an affordable shade product to upgrade an outdoor living space that is overwhelmed with direct intense sun and needing a protective cover from rain to enhance your space – a Porch or Patio Cover by ECCO could be the perfect fit. Available as Solid Insulated, Acrylic, or Hybrid, our custom-designed and installed Patio Covers are ideal for patios, decks, or even driveways as carports. With a sleek, maintenance-free design and durable construction backed by a best-in-class warranty, ECCO’s covers are a stylish and lasting outdoor upgrade.
