MetalAwnings.com is a manufacturer, not a middleman. We engineer, fabricate and powder-coat architectural aluminum canopies and metal awnings in our own shop, then crate them and ship them to Charlotte-area jobsites ready for your crew to install. General contractors, home builders, developers, architects and sign companies across Mecklenburg County use us to lock in canopy pricing and lead times early, instead of waiting on a local shop's install calendar.

Our most-specified commercial canopy. An integrated gutter in the fascia moves water off entries without clunky add-on downspouts, which matters in Charlotte's heavy summer thunderstorms. Fascia heights of 6", 8", 10" and 12". Common on retail and QSR storefronts, medical offices, schools and mixed-use buildings.
A crisp, modern fascia line in 8", 10" and 12" heights. A favorite for South End and NoDa infill projects where a thin, clean edge fits the design.
Galvalume panels in 16" or 24" widths on engineered aluminum framing. Ideal over townhome and single-family entries, porches and bay windows for home builders who want a premium, low-maintenance elevation detail.
Aluminum louver blades that cut solar heat gain on south- and west-facing glass. Used on office buildings, restaurant patios and multifamily amenity and rooftop decks.
Powder-coated aluminum that won't rot, split or need repainting like wood or vinyl. Popular with Lake Norman and custom-home builders for coastal and farmhouse elevations.
Renson louvered pergolas for outdoor dining and amenity spaces, and branded fabric awnings for storefronts that want signage on the awning.
Every system is available in any Tiger, TCI, Cardinal or IFS powder-coat color, plus our in-house woodgrain finishes — the warm wood look without wood maintenance.
Retail centers, QSR and restaurant builds, medical and dental offices, schools, churches and municipal projects. Send the canopy sheets from your drawing set and we'll quote from them, then produce shop drawings for architect approval.
Charlotte is one of the busiest residential construction markets in the Southeast, from townhome communities in Huntersville, Indian Trail and Waxhaw to apartment projects along the light-rail corridors. We supply entry canopies, standing seam porch awnings, shutters, amenity pergolas and breezeway canopies by the phase, finished to match your elevation packages.
Custom fascia profiles, custom colors and woodgrain finishes. We can help with profile selection, support method (wall-mounted, hanger rod, or post-supported) and span early in design.
Storefront awnings that carry branding, and consistent replacements across a portfolio of properties.
Commercial canopies in Charlotte are typically permitted through Mecklenburg County Code Enforcement and must meet the current North Carolina State Building Code, including site-specific wind loads. Canopies that project over a public sidewalk, common in Uptown and South End, may also need right-of-way encroachment approval from the City. We provide shop drawings and project-specific engineering on request for your permit package; your contractor or installer pulls the permit.
We ship to jobsites throughout Charlotte — Uptown, South End, NoDa, Plaza Midwood, Ballantyne, University City, SouthPark — and the surrounding region, including Concord, Kannapolis, Huntersville, Cornelius, Davidson, Mooresville, Matthews, Mint Hill, Indian Trail, Monroe, Waxhaw, Gastonia and Belmont, plus Rock Hill, Fort Mill and Lake Wylie, SC.

We're a manufacturer. We build, crate and ship; your crew or local installer handles installation. That's how contractors get manufacturer pricing.
Yes. Canopies are engineered to the project's requirements under the North Carolina State Building Code. Ask about project-specific engineering when you request a quote.
Fabric costs less up front but typically needs recovering every 5–10 years. Powder-coated aluminum lasts decades with little maintenance, so it usually costs less over the life of the building. More in our commercial metal awnings guide.
Yes. We quote and ship by phase or by lot, in consistent colors and profiles, so every home in a community matches.
Send plans, elevations, or photos with dimensions and we'll get you pricing and lead time.
