AWNINGS WITH DROP DOWN VALANCE
Vertical Shading from the Sun and Added Privacy
Imagine you are seated quite comfortably outside and your lovely retractable awning has protected you all afternoon from the intense sunshine and heat. Late afternoon arrives and the sun drops below your awning. Now you are blinded by the light. Solution? Simply push another button on your remote handset and a fabric blind lowers to shade you once more.
Various specialised folding arm awnings have the option of a vertical fabric blind built into the front profile – either manual or electric operated. This superb and very popular option gives you protection from low lying sun, but also provides privacy and protection from the cooler breezes of the late afternoon and evening time.
- Perfect for South and West facing gardens
- Vertical adjustable shading – down to the floor options
- Provides protection from cooling breezes
- Provides privacy for your outdoor area
This ‘drop down valance’ system uses the same fabric choice as your main awning cover, or you can choose from one of many very clever, tougher, perforated fabrics. These thicker fabrics offer protection, but they enable partial vision too, so you don’t feel too enclosed if you choose the full length blind.
Comfort
It is quite amazing how much warmth and cosiness is felt underneath a large fabric awning and the drop down valance only adds to this effect, especially in the late afternoon and evening.
- Low lying sun shade – perfect for South West and West facing patios
- Provides extra privacy to your outdoor space when lowered
- Simple operation by winding handle or electric motor drive
- Weighted bottom profile to minimise movement when lowered
- Perfect for preventing cooling breezes later in the day
- Create a comfortable and pleasant place to spend the evenings
- Combine with a side mounted pull out awning and create further protection
Combine the drop down valance option with one or a pair of the superb retracting side screens available, such as the Markilux 790 or Weinor Paravento, and you can protect yourself on all three exposed sides underneath your awning. This helps to make the cooler months of the year less of a problem when sitting outside and shelter you from wind or rain, allowing you to make more use of your outside space.
Quality and Durability
Choosing from the many awning options can be hard but rest assured all the different awnings we offer are the best you can buy. Made to measure and made to last.
Shading and UV Protection
Drop down fabric valances offer many benefits to your awning with protection from wind, privacy from neighbours and shade from low lying sun.
Customisable Solutions
All our awnings are made to order and made to your size, colour choice and specification to be as unique as possible to you and your home.
Added Privacy
Your outdoor area might well be overlooked and the drop down valance and awning itself offer a lot of privacy whilst not blocking out natural light at any time* (*fabric colour dependant).
