Commercial Folding Arm Awnings
Our commercial awnings can be used for both practical and aesthetic purposes. Their presence enhances a multitude of shop fronts and graces the most prestigious high streets.
They provide highly effective yet elegant protection from sunlight and rain, offer excellent promotional opportunities and, since the smoking ban was introduced, are increasingly in demand from cafes and restaurants where outdoor undercover seating is required.
Available in a wide range of stylish designs our folding arm awnings can be manufactured up to 14 meters wide with projections up to four meters.
Our folding arm awnings can be broken down into four categories:
Full Cassette Awnings
This practical awning style provides the perfect protection for the roller, cover and the complete arm system – because they are all stored in a closed cassette. When retracted, the moving arm part closes and seals the cassette: meaning that foul weather, wind and dirt stay out.
Semi-Cassette Awnings
This stylish awning design has a similar appearance to that of a cassette awning when closed. The design of our semi-cassette awnings incorporates a comprehensive, pre-assembled top gutter, which provides protection against the weather to the roller and mechanism, both from above and below. The underside of the semi-cassette is open, because the all-round protection guaranteed by a cassette awning is not a necessity in every situation.
Open Awnings
If the installation site is well protected – e.g. it is located in a niche or beneath a generous roof overhang – then open awning systems are a practical and economical method of providing a balcony or patio with shade, because the mechanisms and rollers remain exposed in these models.
Shop Front Recess Awnings
Designed to fit inside a pre assembled recess, this awning features a specially designed opening mechanism that allows the awning to be mounted so that the front profile sits flush with the shop front. The front profile can be powder coated any color.
