The Commercial Advantages Of Keeping Awnings Tucson Well Maintained

By Bernice Terry


It doesn't matter if the inside of your store has nice, wide, clear aisles and clever, attractive displays. If awnings Tucson over the doors and windows look shabby, your customers will take their business elsewhere. Even if the interior of your shop is a little cluttered, once passersby are attracted by the cooling shade provided by a well-kept awning, they will find it difficult to shuffle back outside without at least looking like they intend to buy something!

Tucson is the county seat of Pima, Arizona and the home of the University of Arizona. It lies at the intersection of Interstate Highways 8, 10 and 19 going to or from California, New Mexico and Mexico, respectively. It is an hour and 15 minutes' drive sixty miles south to the Mexican border.

Because of its location in the southern half of the state, Tucson is surrounded by desert. Your nearest splash of greenery is at least sixty minutes' drive away. Here, an awning is less of a decoration than an absolute necessity. The function of an awning is to provide shelter from sun and rain. A pleasing side benefit of the feature is they add a touch of color in a very dusty, dry landscape.

A smart-looking, well-kept awning will attract window-shoppers to the front of a store. They may be attracted by the shade they provide, but people will naturally feel compelled to step inside your shop almost by way of a thank you for letting them seek respite under your shelter. A torn or faded awning, on the other hand, will drive them well away from your door.

Arizona is situated in the southwestern corner of America. On February 14, 1912, it was admitted into the union as the 48th state, the last of the continental United States. One of its main attractions is Grand Canyon National Park. After it was visited by Teddy Roosevelt, America's 26th President, he admitted to feeling a sense of awe and declared that all Americans should see it. The Grand Canyon is considered by its loyal visitors to be one of the 8 wonders of the world.

The northern half of the state is characterized by the San Francisco Mountains, many deep, large canyons as well as the Colorado Plateau. Not a lot of people associate the state with skiing, but there are several such resorts in the areas of Flagstaff and Alpine. The south, on the other hand, has a desert climate with dry, hot summers and pleasant winters.

A full fifty years before Arizona was allowed into the union, on February 14, 1862, it was President Jefferson Davis proclaimed it a confederate territory. During the latter half of the 19th century, the area was colonized by Mormons who had been dispatched to settle Arizona by Brigham Young. The cities of Mesa, Heber, Snowflake and Safford were founded by these pioneers. Farming cotton and the mining of copper were the principal industries, which helped the region to recover from the Great Depression and made Arizona the successful industrial center it is today.

Awnings Tucson probably contribute to the wild west ambiance of the place. Because of the area's proximity to the Mexican border, there is an indisputable Spanish influence to the architecture of the area which is reflected in the design of the city's various awnings, commercial, residential and otherwise. Awnings are also an important feature of trailer homes, recreational vehicles and camping trailers.
