A custom awning will provide you with shelter from the harsh sun rays and prevent you from getting wet with some light rain protection.

It is important to have the right type of awning fitted, as it must be at the right angle to allow the rain to fall off and not sit upon the fabric when the awning is open.

Custom made awnings are built to fit the area exactly so there are no gaps for the rain to come in, they also do not have any poles sticking out which can give your garden or home an unkempt look. They are simply fitted to the exterior walls of your home with durable frames to allow them to be open and closed.

You can get electronic lift arm or a cordless electric awning which simply opens and retracts the awning at a press of a button.
