Folding Arm Awnings
What is a Folding Arm Awning?
A Folding Arm Awning is a retractable awning that extends and retracts with spring loaded arms that keep the fabric tight. With the various options of cassetted hoods, the awning retracts neatly away so that unsightly mechanisms are not visible..
Folding Arm Awnings provide shade over your deck, patio or courtyard, helping your beers and bubbles stay cold on those hot summer days.
Without the need of posts and framework, folding arm awnings are a cost-effective alternative to permanent structures and a great way to create an outdoor entertaining area on those warm, sunny days.
The awnings can be either manually operated or motorised with a remote control or wall switch, making them easy to use. Sun, rain and motion sensors can be fitted to motorised awnings, so you don't have to worry about making sure the awning has been retracted in case of inclement weather!
