My two-year old Aleko awning had been baffled by wind causing the break in the left arm. Until last Fall I did not have a remote-controlled closure attached to bring the awning in when the wind got boisterous. I was glad to find that Aleko sells parts to their array of awnings, so I ordered the new arm and new material to bring back the beauty of my 13'x10' dark green awning. Now with the motorized closing system, I don't have to worry about damaging wind.
