How many retractable fabric awnings have you purchased during your lifetime? None, or very few in reality for most people, so why not take a few minutes to read through our guide to choosing your awning and what to look out for? For many, this is quite a serious purchase and will be a large feature in your home, an area where you will want to spend a lot of quality time, so getting it right from the outset is important…
Various optional features are now fast becoming normal in the specifications for 2024 models.

We have tried to give as many examples of prices for mid to high end quality awnings, with different features and sizes to help you understand the likely costs involved. Of course if you have a rough idea of sizes already and want to discuss it directly then please email or call us, we have nothing to hide and love to be as transparent as possible on our pricing. There are a lot of variations in prices for the same size awning, but so often it isn’t obvious to see or understand the differences at first glance. Different awning models will have different performance and specifications and these will be very relevant once we understand what you expect from a new awning for your home or business.

We go on and on about the importance of an established manufacturer and particularly one which tests, designs and develops the awnings in a Northern European climate. Our UK climate has always been one of the most challenging for any product which exists outdoors, from intense sunshine to incredible rain and damp, dark damaging conditions for several months of the year. ALL our awnings are manufactured in Northern European countries so we know they are the best for our own UK climate, especially when it comes to the fabrics used. The main and largest part of the awning when in use.
