Coiled wire fabric is specified for awnings and canopies to provide aesthetics, protection, and shade. These high-strength systems deliver blockage from sunlight and allow air to flow freely, while simultaneously defining exteriors with their sharp, modern look.
Architects can affect how much light penetrates through the material based on weave, gauge, and fullness of the mesh. Cascade offers a variety of durable metal wire materials for outdoor use, plus resilient finishes to give your awning and canopy system enhanced longevity.
Design Options
Coiled wire fabric systems are available in a range of unique attachments, both fixed and track. With customizable hardware, materials, weaves, finishes, and flat or formed designs, our pre-engineered systems can be modified to meet the requirements of your individual project.
To ensure an easy installation and save you time specifying Fabricoil for your project, Cascade Architectural provides a variety of engineered attachment systems to achieve your design goals. All attachment systems are designed to present Fabricoil® in its own unique way and are engineered to meet your application’s performance requirements. Any of the attachments shown can be customized or Cascade can work with you to create new attachments for your specific application. Many attachments are offered in aluminum, steel, or stainless steel and are available with optional ceiling, wall, or suspended mounting systems.

Material and gauge impacts weight, functionality, aesthetics, suitability for exterior applications, and more. Wire material and gauge are selected based on the needs of your Fabricoil® application. Your Cascade Architectural representative will assist you in making the best selection for your project.
Explore Materials
All Fabricoil® weaves share the same fundamental geometry, created by interlocking individual strands of spiraled wire. What varies widely is Fabricoil’s scale. The weave you select impacts the material’s percentage of open area (from 40% to 85%), textured appearance, thickness (from 3/32” to 5/8”), wire gauge (from 14 to 21), and ultimate strength. Your knowledgeable Cascade Architectural representative is ready to help you select the perfect weave for your application.
Explore Weaves
Cascade Architectural offers custom coatings and finishes for both Fabricoil® weaves and attachment systems. Fabricoil® weaves are sprayed and protected with durable low-VOC lacquer finishes, designer "metaltone" powder finishes, and acrylic lacquers. All coatings are available in a wide range of custom colors – matched to your paint codes in order to meet your precise application and design requirements.
Explore Finishes
This effect is called "fullness" and is expressed as a percentage of additional material. Acceptable range for fullness is 15-200%
