FOLDING ARM AWNING

Folding Arm Awnings extend your outdoor living area  This awning is mounted directly onto your wall or under the eve; special brackets have been designed by Awnings Galore to accommodate this mounting.  The awning consists of a square back bar which sits within the brackets already mounted, and the roller/cloth and arms are attached to this bar.  An optional weather box is also available.  It is recommended that Variable Pitch Arms are purchased over fixed arms as they allow greater adjustment in both vertical and horizontal pitch.  The awning can then be extended or retracted by either a manual crank drive, or motorized - either way the awning can be fully extended or only partially extended.  This awning can be up to 18 m wide up to 3.6 m projection.  Wind and sun sensors are also vailable.
