Roger & Son Awnings

Shade isn’t just a summer luxury in New York—it’s a small act of defiance against the sun’s glare on brick and glass. Roger & Son Awnings has been part of that quiet resistance for anyone who wants to soften the edges of a storefront or reclaim a sliver of outdoor space. The business sits at 100-01 Metropolitan Avenue, where the sidewalks of Forest Hills carry the rhythm of daily errands and weekend strolls.

Awning suppliers don’t often get the spotlight, yet their work shapes the streetscape in subtle ways. Retractable models, fixed canopies, and fabric choices that fade less under city light are the kinds of details that keep awnings functional long after the first installation. These are the sorts of conversations that likely fill the order books here, where the focus stays on materials built to outlast seasonal shifts rather than seasonal trends.
