Manufacturing Lead Time
The majority of our products are custom made to your specific order requirements. Manufacturing time varies from 1½ to 4 weeks depending on the product type and the time of year. On occasion we are able to fulfill orders within a day or two while others involve a longer manufacturing process. On average most orders ship within 10 days after placement of the order.
Products that meet the criteria for standard ground shipping are delivered to your door via FedEx®, UPS® or the Post Office (USPS). If your order contains either a retractable patio awning or other oversized items it will be shipped via a residential freight services trucking company. The exact shipping time required for delivery will depend on the shipping address for your order and will take from 1 to 5 days.
Order Fulfillment
Our fulfillment process includes receiving, processing, manufacturing, and shipping your order. At Choice Awnings our goal is to fulfill your order in the shortest amount of time possible without compromising the integrity of the products we offer or the services we provide. Because the majority of our products are custom made to your order specifications, the manufacturing process often has the most influence on achieving our goal. Awning products are primarily seasonal and while the warmer months present the biggest challenge to prompt order fulfillment we will always do our best to get your order shipped as soon as possible. Most orders ship within 10 days after placement of the order.

The majority of products Choice Awnings sells are custom-made based on individual customer measurements, color selections and patterns. Very often, our manufacturing partners can begin production of the items you ordered within hours of placing your order. With limited exception these products cannot be returned for a refund because they were produced specifically for your unique application. We encourage and require our customers to review their orders for accuracy prior to submission.
