Howard County sits on the eastern edge of the Permian Basin, anchored by Big Spring, the county seat, a city named for the natural spring that made this spot an oasis long before oil made it an economy. Energy defines the county: oil operations, wind farms on the horizon, and a workforce that earns well and spends on home.

The oil-and-wind combination is the commercial story. Permian-edge service companies, field offices, and energy-sector businesses fill Big Spring’s commercial corridors, and wind-energy development keeps adding turbines, crews, and landowner income across the county. Both industries respect engineering, which is exactly what our products lead with.

Comanche Trail Park is the county’s beloved public face: the namesake spring, the trails, and the amphitheater that hosts concerts under the West Texas sky. A community that gathers outdoors at this scale understands shade as a civic virtue, not a luxury.

Main Street Big Spring and the county’s ranch homes round out the market: historic commercial facades getting their second act, and ranch-country residences where the west sun punishes anyone without a plan. Wind is a daily companion here, which makes the wind-sensor story a natural opener.

Our factory’s in-house installation covers Southern California only, San Diego, Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, and San Bernardino counties. In Howard County, dealers sell the product and coordinate installation locally, with our training, measuring guidance, and technical support behind every job.

The product line

What Howard County dealers sell

Energy-town commercial and wind-country residential shade, product-only.

Full-Cassette Awnings

The Main Street and ranch-headquarters specification: sealed housings that handle West Texas dust, architectural lines for Big Spring’s revitalizing facades, and the wind-sensor pairing that energy-country buyers respect on engineering grounds.

See cassette awnings

Motorized Power Screens

Zip-track screens for energy-town homes and ranch houses: brutal afternoon sun, windblown dust, and insects handled by one product, with full retraction when the evening calms. The natural second sale on every awning quote.

Open-Roll Retractable Awnings

The volume answer for workforce housing and family patios: real on-demand shade at economics that close in one visit, backed by the same 15-year factory warranty as the premium line.

Browse the dealer catalog

Every retractable awning and motorized power screen ships with our 15-year factory warranty, the credential that closes energy-country buyers who judge everything on whether it holds up.

Territory opportunity

The spring, the energy corridor, and Main Street

Permian-edge demand with a wind story.

The energy-town commercial corridor is the business play: oilfield service companies, field offices, and energy-sector storefronts where shade is equipment and appearance signals success. Commercial buyers purchase on ROI, and comfortable customers spend more.

The Main Street revitalization brings the facade trade: historic Big Spring storefronts getting their second act, where coordinated awnings lift property values block by block. One landmark row becomes the portfolio every merchant references.

The ranch-home residential base delivers the homeowner volume: ranch-country houses and workforce homes facing the full force of the West Texas sun. Motorized products with wind sensors match how this market buys, engineered, automatic, done right.

The wind-energy corridor is the growth kicker: turbine development, service crews, and royalty-income landowners with a native respect for wind engineering. Apply today for a straight answer on availability in Howard County.

Why partner with AJ Shades

The wholesale edge in Howard County

Energy incomes, engineering respect, real margins.

1. The engineering-respect advantage. Oil and wind people evaluate equipment for a living. Our engineered frames, Somfy-powered motors, and wind-sensor auto-retract speak their language, and dealers who demo the engineering close on specs, not on price.

2. The energy-income homeowner. Permian-edge households earn well and buy decisively. Premium products, motorization, and the 15-year factory warranty on retractable awnings and motorized power screens match exactly how this market shops.

3. Wholesale, not franchise. No buy-in, no royalties, no annual fees. You sell under your own brand at dealer pricing, from a Main Street cassette to a ranch-home screen package, and you keep the margin.

4. The Main Street portfolio effect. Big Spring’s revitalizing facades are a public showroom. Outfit one strong block and every merchant, visitor, and prospective homeowner in the county sees your work daily.

5. No inventory, no crew. Build-to-order through our American factory means no warehouse. Training, measuring guidance, and technical support let an existing contractor, retailer, or design business add the line without new headcount.

Already quoting commercial or residential work around Big Spring and the Permian edge? The contractor program fits install-first businesses, and many county partners run both programs together.

Howard County dealer FAQ

Questions Howard County businesses ask us

How do I become an AJ Shades dealer in Howard County?
Complete the dealer inquiry form at /dealer/inquiry and describe your business and your market, Big Spring, the energy corridor, the ranch-home trade. We review every application personally, then talk territory, catalog, and training with you directly.
Is the AJ Shades dealer program a franchise?
No. It is a wholesale product-supply model: no franchise buy-in, no royalties, no required territory fees. That is a deliberate contrast with franchise competitors such as Innovative Awnings & Screens, which requires a large five-figure minimum cash buy-in per a 2026 franchise listing. You sell under your own brand at dealer pricing.
What products can Howard County dealers sell?
Retractable awnings (open-roll and full-cassette), motorized power screens, and awning recover/refabrication. Main Street leads with cassettes, energy-town homes lean screens and sensor-equipped awnings, and recover keeps older installs earning. Patio covers are not part of the dealer lineup.
Do dealers need to carry inventory?
No. Everything is build-to-order through our American factory, so there is no warehouse requirement. Homeowner inquiries in your territory are referred to you, and you coordinate the local install with our training and technical support behind it.
How do the products handle Permian Basin wind and dust?
Full-cassette models seal the fabric in a housing when retracted, which is what dusty, gusty conditions demand, and the optional wind sensor auto-retracts open-roll models when gusts exceed safe levels. We train dealers to specify every install for its exposure, so the product matches the county’s weather.
What territory support does AJ Shades provide?
Territory discussion on the first call, training on product, measuring, and installation, co-branded spec sheets, and homeowner inquiries referred to the dealer. The veteran-owned, American-made brand story and the 15-year warranty on retractable awnings and motorized power screens give you the sales story competitors cannot match.
What training does AJ Shades provide new dealers?
Product training on the full line, measuring training so every quote is exact, installation training for your crew or your contractor partners, and sales training on the stories that close, the wind-sensor demo, the warranty credential, the veteran-owned American-made brand. Then ongoing technical support on every job. You are never left to figure out a tricky install alone.
How do component warranties work for dealers to explain?
Simply: every retractable awning and motorized power screen carries our 15-year factory warranty, serviced by the factory, and motors and components are covered under the program terms we document for you. Dealers get the plain-language warranty sheet to hand customers, so the promise is always in writing and always consistent.
Do dealers get help with their first big commercial quote?
Yes, directly from the factory team. Your first energy-sector or Main Street commercial quote gets our eyes on the measurements, the product specification, and the pricing structure before it goes out, so you present with total confidence. After two or three supported quotes, most dealers run the process solo, but the technical support line stays open on every job after that.
How do dealers compete against commodity awnings on price?
By refusing the price conversation and selling the cost conversation. A commodity awning that dies in three Permian summers costs more than a warranted product that lasts, and energy-country buyers already think in total cost of ownership. We arm dealers with the comparison framework, engineered frames, Somfy-powered motors, wind-sensor protection, fifteen years of factory backing, so the quote wins on value instead of racing to the bottom.
