SolarShield Legend — lateral-arm retractable awning

Lateral-arm retractable awning

Legend

The everyday retractable that fits the widest range of jobs.

Overview

Legend is the dependable lateral-arm retractable for dealers who need one product that covers most of the board — patios and decks through storefronts, outdoor dining, offices, and event spaces. Shade on demand, no front support poles, nothing permanent to engineer around.

Best for

  • Residential patios and decks
  • Restaurant and cafe frontages
  • Storefronts and office entries
  • Event and hospitality spaces

Why stock it

What Legend does for your business

01

Versatile across the board

One product line that quotes credibly for a backyard patio and a restaurant frontage. Fewer SKUs for a dealer to learn, and fewer jobs that need a different manufacturer.

02

No front posts

The lateral-arm design carries the projection off the wall, so the space underneath stays completely open — usable for tables, traffic, and furniture.

03

Branding-ready

Custom colors, fabric selection, and branded designs are all supported, which turns a shade sale into a curb-appeal and visibility sale for business customers.
