It works like this: the Southern California factory manufactures, and you sell. You buy at wholesale, market American-made retractable awnings and motorized power screens as your own Syracuse business, and install through your crew or your trusted local contractors, supported by our measuring guidance, training program, and same-day technical support. AJ Shades' own install crews work only in Southern California, San Diego, Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, and San Bernardino counties, so your New York market stays yours: dealers sell products nationwide, fulfilled locally, with no factory in your way. The dealer benefits and the New York dealer network pages detail what stands behind every Syracuse sale.
The product line
What Syracuse dealers sell
Two categories, proven against the snowbelt.
Motorized Power Screens
Zip-track screens that drop over patios, porches, and lake-facing glass, cutting summer heat and glare before they hit the house and locking the evening insects out. In the Oneida Lake corridor the screen is the opening product, because lake evenings belong to the bugs. Fifteen-year warranty, American-made.
See power screens for dealersFull-Cassette Awnings
The flagship for the buyer who has watched a snowbelt winter dismantle fixed shade: the whole system seals inside a housing against snow loads, ice, wind-driven lake effect, and UV when retracted. Premium positioning, premium margin, and the fifteen-year warranty the relocating professional reads before signing.
See cassette awningsOpen-Roll Retractable Awnings
Shade on demand for decks, patios, and lake cottages, retracting in seconds by hand, by app, or automatically with a wind sensor when the Ontario weather turns. Fifteen years of factory warranty behind the fastest close in the line for the suburb-ring buyer.
Browse the dealer catalogSyracuse dealers close with the 15-year factory-serviced warranty on every retractable awning and motorized power screen in the catalog, American-made. Coverage varies by product and component. The dealer catalog covers exactly two categories: retractable awnings and motorized power screens. Patio covers are not in the dealer lineup, which keeps your pitch honest in a market where the winter is the judge of every fixed structure.Browse wholesale pricing and the national dealer network for the full picture.
Territory opportunity
The Syracuse market
Snowbelt winters, compressed summers, the university, and the lake corridor.
The snowbelt credibility pitch A hundred inches of seasonal snowfall is the best salesperson a dealer can have. The retractable system that seals itself away in the fall is the only answer that fits the winter, and every Syracuse homeowner already knows why. Lead with the cassette, and the conversation shortens.
The suburb-ring volume lane Cicero, Liverpool, Baldwinsville, Jamesville, and DeWitt repeat the same home patterns: Colonials with yards, west-facing patios, and lake-corridor exposure. The zip-track motorized screen is the repeatable product across all of them, and plan-stage quotes with suburb builders put shade into the build before the buyer shops retail.
The University Hill landlord lane Syracuse University feeds a large rental market around University Hill and the surrounding blocks. Landlords competing for student and faculty tenants add shade as the amenity that rents units, and motorized screens on rental patios are installs you can repeat street after street.
The semiconductor relocation lane The Micron-driven build-out keeps importing professionals who rent first and buy next. Relocating buyers arrive with budgets, deadlines, and no local loyalties, and the dealer who is the first credible quote wins them. Apply today for a straight answer on availability in Syracuse.
Why partner with AJ Shades
The Syracuse edge
Snowbelt proof, university demand, and zero inventory.
1. Independent by design. Zero franchise fees, zero royalties, zero ad funds: you buy wholesale, sell under your Syracuse name, and keep the entire margin.
2. The winter is the closer. Triple-digit snowfall totals do the selling for you. The shade that disappears for the winter and returns for the summer is the only pitch that fits this market's lived experience.
3. The summer sprint concentrates demand. The compressed season packs every buying decision into spring, so the dealer who prospects in March harvests the entire year in one window. The calendar builds the urgency for you.
4. University demand never sleeps. The rental market around University Hill and the relocating-professional lane keep the pipeline fed even when the weather is not selling season, smoothing the territory's rhythm.
5. Build-to-order, not stock-to-sell. Every system is manufactured to the job's measurements and shipped to the site, so you carry no warehouse and no stocked SKUs. Training, the dealer portal, and same-day technical support let remodelers, deck builders, and outdoor-living retailers sell motorized shade without adding overhead.
Got a crew installing across the Syracuse market? The contractor program is designed for crew-led trades, and many New York partners stack it with the dealer program.

Dealer playbook
The Syracuse dealer playbook
The snowbelt capital, where the winter is the entire sales pitch.
March and April are everything. The snowbelt winter breaks late and the compressed summer packs every buying decision into an eight-week window. Quote in March and you install by Memorial Day; start in May and you are quoting for next year.
Be visible in the Cicero and Liverpool corridors toward Oneida Lake, the Jamesville and DeWitt east-side streets, and the University Hill rental districts. The semiconductor corridor keeps importing relocating professionals who buy within weeks of arrival.
The lake-cottage lane: Oneida Lake's shoreline owners want shade that protects itself when they are back in the city. The wind-sensor auto-retract is the absentee-owner answer, and one good cottage install on a shoreline road becomes the road's pattern.
