Add Valuable Outdoor Space to Your Dining Restaurant
As the hospitality industry has experienced the busiest time in the summer and moving ahead of the festive season, creating an inviting and functional outdoor space might be a good step to attracting more customers and boosting revenue. The easiest way is adding Commercial Outdoor Shading Products to your business.
Increase Revenue with a Terrace Cover
Adding a terrace cover or other outdoor shading solutions can significantly increase your restaurant’s seating capacity. When the demand is high as during the peak dining hours or large booking in festive season, more seats mean more customers can be served.
Protec
t from the weather elements
In summer, it can be seen clearly that a well designed glass veranda with retractable blind can block the sun and let in natural light, creating a bright and inviting atmosphere. However, there is a common question of whether the glass verandas can stay in the winter or not? The simple answer is yes. Glass Verandas with heaters act as a barrier against harsh winds, snow and freezing temperatures then offer a cosy and comfortable area. This protection not only enhances comfort, but also extends the usability of outdoor areas during the winter, providing business with opportunity to accommodate more customers year round.
Glass Verandas are the perfect option for all year weather protection. They are paired with an under glass awning you have the ultimate all year round solution to allow natural light but also protect patrons from harmful UV rays along with cover from showers and wind. Add heating and lighting to extend those outdoor seating hours well into the late evening, providing a comfortable place for people to enjoy the warm atmosphere.
Boost the kerb appeal
A stylish outdoor area enhances your restaurant or pub exterior, making it more inviting to passersby. An appealing exterior can draw in potential customers, increasing brand visibility and both offline and online recognition.
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR OUTDOOR STRUCTURES
Retractable Awnings and Umbrellas
Ideal For: Small shops, bars, pubs, cafes and restaurants
Awnings, Butterfly Awnings or Umbrellas are practical choices to provide essential shade and shelter, simple to install and they can be easily customised to match your branding. They can be designed to include your logo, reinforcing your brand identity while serving a functional purpose. We recommend them for most shops or all types of hospitality locations.
Commercial Pergolas, Glass Verandas or Canopies

Benefits: Commercial pergolas are self-supporting or wall mounted aluminium structures and they are ideals for creating an open space outdoor dining.
An aluminium pergola or glass verandas offer both style and functionality. The design with a built in rain gutter will efficiently manage water drainage, ensuring that your outdoor space remains usable even during heavy rain.

With wind resistance up to class 5, you don’t worry about windy weather and will be able to use most of the year around.

Should I Replace My Shop’s Awning
With Christmas over and the January sales winding down, this is perhaps the first time this year that you have had to take a step back and look at your shop. One question you may be wondering is if it is worth getting an awning or replacing your current one.
Here, we will outline the benefits or doing just that, and how they improve more than just the aesthetics of your business.
Revive Your Aesthetic
Over time, older awnings may have gotten worn, faded or damaged. This is of course a natural problem with most older awnings, whilst most modern awnings are capable of dealing with the effects of harsher weather. Faded and worn signs often put people off from entering a shop, as we naturally judge a shop from the outside before we enter it.
A new awning can completely change the appearance of your shop, making it immediately more inviting to potential customers, enticing passing trade.

Brand Awareness
One of the strong points of an awning from Samson Awnings is the ability to personalise it with your shops own branding. With most awnings it is possible to have any RAL colour, and branding is also possible. This means you can have your logo and colours on the awning, extending your presence on the high street and making yourself more visible, as well as further the cohesion and strength of your brand.
Provide Protection
With the weather becoming more extreme over time, as Winters become colder and wetter and summers becoming warmer, awnings and other forms of protection could become more important. Whilst we are now in late January, Summer will arrive before we know it, and it is important to prepare accordingly.
An awning will not just protect you in wet weather, but will also stop your premises from becoming unbearably hot during the summer. Extending an awning in warm weather can stop the burning summer sun from warming up the glass in the windows of your shop, therefor keeping the whole building cooler, and encouraging shoppers or visitors to stay longer.
