    • Frame: White
    • Wind sensor recorded
    • Installation field: Standard
    • Recorded: 12 ft × 10 ft. Confirm the required width and projection; neither the project total nor frame color establishes the coverage your site needs.

What this price can—and cannot—tell you

This historical estimate is not a current offer or evidence that installation was completed. Source line prices and the final total may differ because of discounts, tax or other priced items; do not treat the project total as the price of each individual product.

Ask for a new itemized quote showing matching dimensions, selected hardware, material, controls, installation, freight and tax. Missing fields mean “not established,” not “included at no charge.”

How this project price compares

At $4,462, this project sits in the 21st percentile of the 1,755 retractable awning estimates we've analyzed — a "below average" market position. The comparison average for this labeled cohort is $4,807, putting this estimate 16% below the typical retractable awning cost. Within the AL dataset, the average across 45 comparable projects is $4,616 — making this estimate 12% below the statewide benchmark.

Comparison cohorts group anonymized records by product label. Differences in dimensions, options, labor, tax, freight, and site work can affect totals, so these figures are context rather than like-for-like bids.

General regional planning context (not project evidence)

This editorial context comes from broad state climate guidance, not from the customer or estimate record. Alabama is categorized here as a humid subtropical climate (long humid summers, frequent severe-storm activity, and Gulf hurricane exposure on the coast). For general awning planning, independently verify product ratings for the regional wind exposure (high on the coast, moderate inland), UV load (high), mounting surface, and local code requirements.
