Teal Boat Top at SMYC


This is a full enclosure we did at SMYC a few of weeks ago. We fit the new bimini to the existing frames and made all new widows and an aft curtain. We used sunbrella canvas for everything and 30 gage strata-glass plastic for the windows.

Country Lanes Awnings and Windbreaks


These are two awnings we finished a couple weeks ago on Country Lanes bowling ally in Franklin, WI. We welded square galvanized steel tubing for the frames and supports which we cleaned and painted the welds to make them less noticeable. We sewed the covers out of a green Northstar vinyl awning material. We also wrapped the support posts as well as the volleyball posts in foam covered in the same green material. Also, windbreaks were added to the hall entrance awning for extra protection from the wind. The larger awning covers the new outdoor bar next to the volleyball court while the smaller indicates the entrance to their hall.

Black Awnings on RaZor Barber Shop


We made these low projection awnings for the RaZor barbershop on KK in Bay View. We welded the frames out of galvanized steel to fit over the existing shaker shingle roof. Then, we sewed the covers out of Black Sunbrella canvas. We are really proud of the extreme improvement these awnings provided to the curb appeal of the store front.

Burgundy Awnings on The Alibi


We recovered and restored these four awnings on the Alibi, in West Allis, WI. First we straightened a bent bit on one of the awnings and added a support to alleviate a sagging problem. Then we brushed and cleaned the awnings before priming and painting the frames, two coats each. We then sewed up new canvas covers for all the awnings out of Burgundy Sunbrella fabric. The photos feature the satisfied customer, and the awnings of course. Hope everyone had a great Fourth of July!
