Fixed Frame Awning

A fixed awning is an architectural projection that provides weather protection, identity or decoration and is wholly supported by the building to which it is attached. Our fixed awnings are made of galvanized tube steel over which a rigid covering, typically fabric, is attached.

Awnings are available in a wide range of colours and patterns. Stationary awnings are typically made of a durable fabric but can also be made of metal or fiberglass. They usually have a fixed aluminium frame and are designed for seasonal removal.

1. Cassette: A cassette is the tube where the awning fabric can be rolled up into. There could be no cassette and the awning is more exposed to the elements.
2. A half cassette will protect the top part of the awning fabric
3. A full cassette will provide complete covering for the awning fabric

Installation: Some awnings require a more difficult installation than others

The Cassette Awning is an enclosed awning where the roller, fabric cover and arms are completely protected and stored in a closed cassette when retracted. These awnings are the right choice for exposed installations and for anyone wanting maximum protection all year round and when the weather turns bad.

The Semi-Cassette Awning offers varying degrees of protection given by a semi-cassette awnings as the casings from manufacturers differ in design. Generally the protection is given from the top and the front only by an aluminium or steel cover board. Where complete protection is not a requirement such as underneath a soffit these awnings can be useful.

The Open Style Awning if located for installation is well protected then open cassette awnings are a good economical way of shading. The mechanisms and roller tubes are left completely exposed. This type of awning is usually fixed underneath a balcony but rarely used in the UK as the fabric is exposed.
