Here at Plantation Shutters, we can offer a wide range of Awnings.
You can elevate your outdoor living space with our premium garden and patio Awnings. An Awning adds beauty and functionality to your property as well as year round covering.
Our awnings can guarantee unbeatable quality and design with a wide range of finishes to suit any space and aesthetic.
Retractable Awnings allow you to enjoy the delights of your outdoor area for most of the year, come rain or shine. The intelligent wind sensors built in mean they can automatically retract, increasing your safety as well as protecting the quality of the product.
The optional addition of lights, heaters and extra screening introduce an even higher specification.
How do the awnings operate?
They are typically motorised using high-quality motors, which are operated via a sleek handset and can be linked to your digital devices. Our ranges are available in both motorised or manual control to suit your preference and budget.
Options that can be included for your Awning:
We have a broad range of fabrics across our collection, from classic stripes to stylish solids. The cassettes can also be customised to suit your external fixings via powder coating.
It comes equipped with a built-in vibration sensor that adds an extra layer of protection. If the sensor detects excessive movement, which is typically caused by strong winds or sudden gusts, it will automatically trigger the awning to retract.
This smart feature helps prevent damage to the awning and ensures it remains secure, even when the weather changes unexpectedly.
It’s a convenient and reliable way to safeguard your outdoor space without needing to constantly monitor the conditions yourself.
Our Awnings can feature integrated lighting options such as LED strip lights, spotlights, and dimmable systems, enhancing both usability and style.
LED strips provide ambient illumination, while spotlights focus light on specific areas.
Dimmable features allow for mood adjustment and energy efficiency.
Some designs incorporate lights directly into the cassette, with advanced models including built-in light bars for seamless, uniform lighting. These innovations make outdoor spaces more functional and inviting after dark.
Our standard fabrics offer mould and mildew resistance, but they wouldn’t put up in a storm. Once the storm is over, we would recommend extending it out and waiting until it dries before retracing it to it’s original position.
However more expensive, we can offer a 100% waterproof material which is made to withhold the Great British weather. Waterproof fabrics have a vinyl coating to offer the best protection from the rain.
The fabric used in the Awning has a UPF (Ultraviolet Protection Factor) rating of up to 50+, offering protection against harmful UV rays. This high level of UV resistance means that, no matter how intense the sun, the colour of the material won’t fade easily helping the awning stay vibrant and looking new for longer.
Living in the UK means having a heater in your garden is a huge luxury so being able to add this to you Awning is perfect.
On our Awnings you can have these either attached to the wall or attached to the Awning itself. Having a heater attached to the Awnings means it has a seamless finish and is protected when not in use.
It is operated by a remote control with an easy on and off switch. It does however have a time out setting on it due to health and safety reasons which means it is also stress free to use.
