Here’s a look inside the shop as the KIPP Empower project takes shape.

These steel assemblies are being fabricated in Reseda before they head to the job site. For school and commercial shade projects, getting the structure right starts well before installation.

Color matters on a storefront. At this Ulta Beauty location, the orange fabric awning continues the brand across the entrance while giving the glass front consistent coverage.

It’s a good example of how a commercial awning can handle a practical job without feeling separate from the building.

This rooftop uses a slide-wire canopy so the shade can change with the way the space is being used.

The fabric panels can be extended across the frame during the hottest part of the day, then pulled back when the patio is better left open. It gives the property flexible coverage without permanently closing in the rooftop.

The curve was already part of the building, so the awning needed to follow it. This fixed-frame fabric awning at Gelson’s Market adds coverage at the main entrance while fitting the storefront’s existing architecture.

Metal and fabric awnings can both add shade and define a commercial storefront, but they create very different looks. Metal works well when the awning should feel like part of the building, while fabric gives businesses more flexibility with color, shape and graphics.

We broke down the differences and what to consider before choosing one for a commercial property: https://www.universalawning.com/blog-posts/metal-vs-fabric-commercial-awnings/

These yellow hip-roof canopies were built for a school campus in Cypress, covering the swings, play equipment, and activity areas with one coordinated shade system.

For school projects, the layout has to work around walkways, equipment, access points, and the way the space is used. Universal Awning & Canopy handles the design, fabrication, and installation of custom campus shade systems across Southern California.

This custom metal canopy uses translucent polygal roof panels to provide coverage along the school building without blocking daylight from the walkway.

Universal Awning & Canopy works with school districts, charter schools, private schools, architects, contractors, and facilities teams on campus shade projects throughout Southern California.

Shade needs to work with the property, especially in a themed, high-traffic environment. These custom shade sails at Universal Studios Hollywood provide overhead coverage while allowing the Mario Kart design to remain part of the experience.

Universal Awning & Canopy handles custom commercial shade projects from design and fabrication through installation. We work throughout Southern California on shade sails, awnings, canopies, screens, curtains, cabanas, and other custom structures for venues, schools, restaurants, hotels, retail properties, and shared outdoor spaces.

A lot of commercial spaces need shade, but they also need the space to still feel open and usable.

This project is a good example of how exterior screens/shade panels can help a restaurant manage sun and glare without closing off the building.

Universal Awning & Canopy works on awnings, canopies, shade sails, curtains, screens, pergolas, and custom shade structures for businesses and homes across Southern California.

A storefront should feel finished before the door even opens.

This custom canopy gives the entrance a cleaner look, adds shade where it matters, and ties in with the rest of the building.
