ABOUT Discount Awnings

OUR HERITAGE: Discount Awnings is a branch of an awning company, EasyAwn™, which is a family owned business with a sound foundation in the canvas awning industry.  The owner, Bill Bierbower, grew up working in the family owned canvas awning business that was founded in 1946 as Awnings by Schmitt.  

OUR VISION: We knew that many awnings for residential and commercial applications were often the same size, style and color.  We knew these could be designed to be manufactured in higher volume with better quality and consistency, and significant savings that could be passed on to the customer.  

With a minimum sales charge of $350 for custom products at Awnings by Schmitt, we knew many customers could not afford the beauty, protection and cost savings of our custom products.  We committed to provide lower cost and higher quality products than had ever been available.  This early vision led to a new company which was formed as EasyAwn/Discount Awnings in 1991.

OUR GROWTH: EasyAwn, LLC. / Discount Awnings is headquartered in Cumming, Georgia - Just North of Atlanta.  We are committed to providing great awnings at the very competitive prices that are manufactured to the highest quality standards, and backing that up with great service and support.  Each awning continues to be crafted with the highest attention to detail - and GUARANTEED CUSTOMER SATISFACTION.  We learned early that satisfied customers are better than any salespeople we could ever employ at helping us grow our business.

OUR COMMITMENT: With a focused commitment to God, our Families, our Company, and especially our Customers - we continue as an innovative market leader with proven products, great customer service and as always - GUARANTEED SATISFACTION.

YOUR PRIVACY: Your privacy is as important as ours.  We do not sell, loan, swap or share our customer information with anyone, in any way, Period.
