The true, but very old and wise saying is, you truly get
what you pay for! So dont be fooled purchase one of
our five, beautifully designed Solarus USA all heavy
duty code approved models and you'll never have to
purchase another Retractable Awning System again!
We use genuine professional Factory Trained Installers,
specifically trained for each of our Solarus Heavy Duty
Product Lines.
Solarus is the only Retractable Awning Company that
offers a True Lifetime Warranty that will replace any
part that is the cause of a manufacturers defect throughout
the life of the product! This warrantee is the
strongest in the industry!
Our awnings are extreme TUV complete frame tested
for over 50,000 uninterrupted open and close cycles!
Most brands do not have this designation and if they
appear to have TUV testing, in actuality the only part
that has been tested is the ARM assembly unit. TUV is
the only recognized and highest standard in the world
for Retractable Awnings and Related Products that are
in existence today. Look for the unique blue seal label
on each model!
All of Solarus USAs Heavy Duty Retractable Awning
Models are manufactured with pride and tested in a
50,000 square foot manufacturing facility founded by a
Degreed Engineer and opened in 1981. The facility is |
run by robotics, state-of-the-art computer technology
and an extremely efficient high quality assembly line.
This allows us to install your awning as fast as 12-14
days depending on the season!
The manufacturing facility is 100% privately owned and
has zero debt and will expand to an additional 50,000
square feet by the end of 2008 to keep up with our
steady demand. It is the only “Robotic State-of-the-Art
facility of its kind in the United States! This unique time
tested, systematic and precise production method of each
Solarus product drastically ensures the elimination of
pulls, tears, and imperfection caused by human error still
associated with inferior retractable awning models.
We use only the finest high grade corrosion resistant
Stainless Steel. Our special Square Bar and Roller Tube
is made out of strong “Memory Steels coated with
a hot double dipped galvanization material inside and
out and is totally sealed from the elements. Our
Connecting Rods, joints and pivoting parts are all stainless
steel. Our frames, arms and all components are
dipped with a special corrosion resistant rust coating.
Finally, they are coated and sealed with a triple coat,
4mil powder baked process, high gloss finish. Some
models having up to 3 custom color choices, off white,
beige and bronze. Most competitors use a very flexible
T6063 aluminum, only offered in a stark white thinly
coated paint process. The T6063 is a Florida product |
|
that is often made from used recycled aluminum scraps.
This product looks bulky and in medium to large size
awnings has an extremely flexible poor wind quality
disadvantage.
We use a variety of high grade Stainless Steel cable systems
to meet and exceed the stringent testing and protocol.
Our new and advanced 10 flat stainless steel cable
system, is today “state-of-the-art awning system! All
of these systems use the highest grade of carbon alloy
produced only in a few select countries in Europe. The
high carbon ore can only be mined in Europe and soft
carbon and recycled aluminum is extruded here in the
States, these are just some geographical facts! Please
dont be fooled by cheap, low grade aluminum products,
extruded here in the U.S. or China. These very soft
aluminum products are used with great success in many
household products but certainly not tested or approved
for performance and strength in a Retractable Awning
System!
Our shoulder assemblies are tested, designed and engineered
using “Jack Screw technologyThis technology
was taken from the aviation industry and imitates the
trailing edge of an airplanes wing. The trailing edge of
a wing is designed to move up and down for take-off
and landing, it moves up and down by huge “jack
screws without going out of alignment and more
importantly operating in severe wind pressure. Solarus
shoulders are one of the most important components in
the strength and operation of our retractable awning
system and “jack screw technology is state of the art
and exclusively used by Solarus USA.
At Solarus USA we use Sunbrela, Premium, “Marine
Grade Fabric. There is no finer 100% acrylic solution
died fabric in the world that will withstand South
Floridas extreme sun damaging and brutal tropical
weather conditions. Over 400 colors to choose from! We
also use a special Gortex/Tenera thread that is a “man
made material, this miracle thread has been tested in
the extreme UV sun-ray and heat conditions in the
deserts of Arizona for 15 years with absolutely no signs
of strength decrease, wear or rot failure! All of our high
quality fabrics are double, Robotically stitched, for
extra strength and longevity!
All of our sewing processes are done in a clean, controlled
“Robotic environment which means that the fabric
is stretched to the same degree as if the awning was
rolled out, this process eliminates puckering, tears and
marks made from pulls. Most competitors, while working
in an unclean, uncontrolled make shift shop will use
tools such as common pliers and pointy screwdrivers to
unevenly pull and stretch the fabric along a dirty shop
table or in some instances a dirty garage floor. The
lighter color the fabric the worse the situation gets! |
Due to the “special Rain and Moisture weather proof
coating that is part of every Sunbrela fabric process,
human handling should be prevented as much as possible!
Mild human handling is ok, heavy human handling
is definitely not recommended! The Sunbrela weather
proof coating applied to fabrics, is in fact, extremely
long lasting for any weather conditions and is minimally
handled at our factory.
Our factory stocks hundreds of custom color stripes,
solids and integrated patterns for immediate manufacturing
and installation on your beautiful home or business!
Please check our “award winning web site for
last year most popular Florida color selections and
patterns, www.SolarusUSA.com.
Solarus USA, custom manufactures sizes from our
exclusive “Smart Fold System of 5 to 9 feet and up to
60˘ wide, and projections of up to 15˘, all one piece
with no spacing in between awnings. Most competitors
cannot build these large sizes and will try to sell you
multiple awnings. The disadvantage of this is that the
awning is not as esthetically pleasing, and when it rains
you will have water gaps in between the awnings.
Solarus USA has 5 Heavy Duty models to choose from.
All heavy duty rated and TUV Complete Frame tested
for South Florida severe weather conditions.
Solarus 20,000 & 20,000 SP series model are sleek
