With the push of a button, one can open and close the awning at any time. Should anyone want to see the setup, please leave me a private message. I am located in the Village of Bonnybrook..
Now this sounds like abetter alternative. If it in the same $4000-5000 range, wouldn't it be better to retract it in winds and when one wants sun?
