Which awning for terraces?
With the large product selection in the patio awning category, the question "Which awning is the best?" often arises. Even though the question of the best awning for patios cannot be answered in a blanket manner, there are clues that should be considered when choosing an awning. When looking for sun protection for patios, you should consider the following factors:
- Patio size: Depending on the size of the patio, various awning models can be used: For smaller terraces, awnings for niches and small areas are ideal, optionally with the stretch function. For terraces of a medium size, the choice usually falls on folding arm awnings or pergola awnings. If you have particularly large terraces, you can often combine different awning models and awning systems. If you are a restaurateur or have a business, we can inform you about the possibilities of large-scale shading for your terrace. For business customers, our team : project is available for project planning.
If the awning is exposed to strong winds, a pergola model is the best solution. They can withstand stronger gusts by being attached to the house wall and by additional columns in the ground.
If the terrace has a roof or conservatory, under-glass awnings or on-glass awnings can be installed.
If there is a roof projection, open folding arm awnings are an option. The fabric and folding arms are protected by the projection.
If there is no protective roof projection, a half or full cassette awning should be used.
On some façades, a recessed awning is feasible.
In addition to providing shade from above, side awnings can be installed on the terrace to provide lateral sun protection, wind protection or privacy.
If attachment to the façade is not possible or desirable, in many cases awning systems anchored to the ground or free-standing (double) awnings can also be realised.
Good to know: Shading for terraces
Which awning is suitable for a terrace?
The choice of the appropriate awning model depends on various factors. Patio awnings can be customised and adapted to the size of the patio. Depending on the orientation of the patio, the size of the awning can be custom-configured.
I am looking for a small awning for the terrace. Which models are suitable?
Of course, we also offer awnings for small terraces. Depending on the installation situation and available space, various models offer advantages for shading your outdoor area. Even if the drop is larger than the width of the awning, there is a solution with the stretch function. With two intersecting folding arms, even awnings with a small width extend far out.
Does markilux offer awnings for large terraces?
Of course we also offer awnings for large terraces. Depending on the desired dimensions, different awning models come into question. Some models basically offer the option of large widths and projections. In addition, many awnings can be linked together so that even larger areas can be shaded. To determine the area to be shaded, you are welcome to contact a markilux specialist partner who will take measurements on site and find the right awning for you.
