Charlotte Awnings & Patio Covers
Custom shade solutions for homes and businesses across the Charlotte metro.
Charlotte's hot summers and mild winters make outdoor space valuable — but only if you can actually use it. A good awning keeps your patio comfortable in July, your storefront visible year-round, and your energy bills lower than they'd be without one.
We're The Awning Shop, based in Shelby — about 45 minutes west of Charlotte. We've been building custom awnings, canopies, and patio covers for Carolina homes and businesses since 1984. We design it, build it, and install it ourselves. No subcontractors. No runaround.
For Charlotte Homeowners
- Door & window awnings — cut the heat, protect your entry, add curb appeal
- Patio covers — fixed shade for decks, patios, and outdoor living spaces
- Retractable awnings — shade when you want it, sun when you don't
- Bahama shutters — sun control with a coastal look
Fabric or metal. Sunbrella with a 10-year warranty or powder-coated aluminum. 100+ colors. We'll help you pick what's right for your home.
For Charlotte Businesses
- Storefront awnings — make your entrance impossible to miss
- Signage & backlit awnings — your brand, visible day and night
- Patio enclosures — extend your outdoor seating season with retractable curtain systems
- Restaurant & cafe covers — more seats, more months, more revenue
We work with retail shops, restaurants, breweries, salons, offices, and professional buildings across Charlotte.

After getting quotes from three companies, we went with The Awning Shop for our patio cover. They weren't the cheapest, but they were the only ones who actually came out, measured correctly, and explained why our first idea wouldn't work. Saved us from making a mistake.
