GiCor is your Alberta source for Awnings!
Awnings enhance both the appearance and functionality of any home or commercial building. They will add value and elegance as well to effectively filter the sun’s light, creating a cool and relaxing environment. That means more time to spend entertaining on a sunny afternoon or cool summer evening. Testing has proven to reduce solar heat gain by up to 77% and lower indoor temperatures by 10 – 15 degrees. They are typically installed on the exterior of a building but can be used in interior spaces to create the welcoming look of French-style café. GiCor has the awnings Calgary loves!
Available control options in chain-driven, manual cranks or motorized systems for large hard-to-reach areas. Control options handheld held remotes, wireless wall switches with the potential to integrate with home third-party control systems. ALL OUR AWNINGS ARE NOW COMPATIBLE WITH AMAZON ALEXA! Optional accessories include sun/heat sensors to automatically lower awnings at a specified threshold in order to maintain a consistent temperature inside your property. Wind sensors can also be added to retract the awnings on a moments notice in high wind situations. This is the perfect Calgary awning solution as the weather can change very suddenly.
