We’re proud to announce the successful completion of our custom aluminum canopy system for Public Storage’s newest facility in Mar Vista. This project perfectly showcases what sets American Awning & Blind Co. apart in the commercial canopy market: complete design-build capabilities that streamline the entire process from initial concept through final installation.
The American Awning & Blind Co. Advantage
Unlike off-the-shelf name brand systems that can involve lengthy lead times, rigid specifications, and limited customization options, our in-house fabrication facility allows us to deliver custom aluminum canopies quickly and efficiently without sacrificing quality or durability.
We handled every aspect of this Public Storage project—from initial design coordination with the general contractor through fabrication in our shop and final installation on site—eliminating the communication gaps, finger-pointing, and delays that often plague multi-vendor projects.
When you work with American Awning & Blind Co., you have a single point of contact responsible for the entire canopy system. This integrated approach means faster problem-solving, better coordination with construction schedules, and accountability from start to finish.
Flexible Solutions That Save Time and Money
One of our most significant advantages is the variety of attachment methods we offer. While some manufacturers lock you into a single mounting system regardless of site conditions, we engineer custom solutions based on your specific substrate, structural requirements, and architectural constraints. This flexibility proved invaluable on the Public Storage project, where our adaptive approach and multiple attachment options saved the general contractor significant time and money during the critical final phase of construction when every day counts.
Our team works closely with general contractors to identify the most efficient installation methods early in the process, preventing the costly surprises and change orders that can derail project timelines and budgets. Whether mounting to concrete tilt-up panels, steel framing, or masonry, we have proven solutions ready to deploy.
Built for the Long Haul
For self-storage facilities like Public Storage, canopies serve double duty: protecting customers during loading and unloading while enhancing curb appeal and reinforcing brand recognition. Our powder-coated aluminum systems deliver both functions beautifully—providing decades of weather resistance with minimal maintenance requirements while creating the clean, professional aesthetic that Public Storage demands across their portfolio.
