​We all know what an awning is, it’s that nice looking shade structure attached your building or home. But, did you know what your awning can be extended, accessorized, and made to expand your business’ footprint?
 
You might be wondering, how is it possible that an awning can expand your business’ footprint without buying or renting more space or land? The answer is simple, by installing drop screens or shade curtains to your awning, you can create an enclosed space at your business that you can use for dining or lounging area.

​Patio curtains are great for restaurants in particular because they provide an added level of aesthetic to the dining experience. For example, at a nice restaurant you might see an outdoor dining area with curtains that might be opened because of the nice day or they are extended because of wind or rain. These patio curtains allow you the ability to serve more guests even if it’s cold outside.
