Cable Guide Alfresco Awning

An industrial look that offers privacy and excellent sun protection and ventilation. A good option for when channels are not suitable. The cables are high tensile 2.5mm 316 grade marine stainless steel, making them perfect for coastal applications.

Side Retention System

If you live in a particularly windy area then these are ideal. They completely enclose an outside area, with no gaps for dust and dirt to enter. Best for sun protection, insect resistance, or enclosing a balcony for privacy, light and heat control. The fabric is tensioned by utilising a floating channel, located within the special two piece side channel, which eliminates the possibility of fabric ‘blow outs’ or light gaps.

Straight Drop Alfresco Awning

A sleek and simple design with a contemporary look similar to a Blind. A Straight Drop Alfresco Awning does not protrude and is therefore ideal for areas with limited space or for the sides of decks, verandas or patios. It can be operated with a spring, manual crank or automated and uses no channels making it ideal for sun/UV protection, airflow or where channels are not possible. It is the perfect Awning to select if posts, pillars or walls are not available for the installation of the channels. This Awning is simply locked into position using straps/saddles to secure it in place.

Durable and practical, we have three styles of Alfresco Awnings – Cable Guide, Side Retention System and Straight Drop. No matter what size your area is, we can tailor make the perfect Alfresco Awning to suit your outdoor shade and location requirements. 

 

 

An outdoor floor surface can often not be perfectly level. When an Awning is installed over a wide width there will be room for gaps of light, insects, debris, wind and rain to enter. We have the ability to insert a pile brush or a fabric valance which eliminates the gap and  maximises the functionality of the Awning. These inserts are also excellent for protecting the bottom rail from chipping if the Awning is suddenly dropped to the ground.
