AWNING SYSTEMS

With the unreliability of our climate a retractable awning increases the time to unwind and enjoy the fresh air. Our awnings keep you cool on the hottest days whilst enabling the use of your patio even when the weather is less than perfect. The patio Awning becomes an extension to your home; imagine being able to dine outside with friends or family on a warm summer evening even in showery weather. Awnings also provide protection from fading for carpets and soft furnishings without having to draw the curtains and lose your view. Houses, bungalows, businesses can all benefit fron an electrically controlled Awning. Product video available. All awnings guaranteed for 5 years.

Technical Information

There are a range of Sun Awnings available for different situations. I tend to sell 3 types generally, the first being the Silver Awning, which is the most cost effective, the Milano, which is semi cassetted and the Base 2000, which is fully cassetted. To explain the meaning of cassetted: An awning is supported by metal arms which when operated, move from a folded position to an outstretched position, the fabric is suspended above these arms. In the case of a semi cassetted awning, when the awning is retracted back the fabric feeds itself into its own box for protection from the weather, the arms however, hang outside the box. In the case of a fully cassetted version, the arms and the fabric are encased within the box, this option obviously protects both arms and fabric and looks neater when the blind is retracted.

SILVER AWNING

The silver is the perfect entry level patio awning for residential installations, as it is a high quality system at a very affordable price. It has a 30mm x 30mm square bar running its entire length, onto which the installation brackets are located. This awning is not cassetted in any way but a top covering box can be fitted above the awning, to give some protection to the fabric. Powder coat white finish , Max width 5mtrs x Max projection 2.35mtrs.

MILANO AWNING

The Milano is a semi cassetted awning suitable for residential and light commercial installations. Powder coat white finish , Max width 5mtrs x Max projection 2.6mtrs.

FABRICS

Dickson, world leader in sun blind fabric manufacturing and present in more than 100 countries world wide, have over 130 designs in its UK diklon 32 collection. Being 100% solution dyed acrylic, the fabric has excellent colour retaining qualities and is mildew and water resistant. All dickson fabrics are treated with perlgard XT27, which is a special water repelling and stain proofing treatment for awning fabric, ensuring quality and consistency of colour and fabric.

LIGHTS

Lights can also be added to the underside of the Awning in the form of eyeball lighting, which can be tilted to achieve the desired angle. The lights are controlled by the same remote control as used for the Awning.
