Folding Arms Awnings

Folding arm awning or “lateral-arm awning” is best known as retractable patio awning. This horizontally operating awning work like a human elbow with the spring action in the arms pushing outward, unfurling the cover from the roller and maintaining the tension. Folding arm awnings feature a shallow drop that remains relatively constant regardless of how far the arms are extended. To unfurl the awning, the roller is turned and the arms extend outward pulling the cover away from the roller. Our most popular retractable awning models are ideal as a patio, deck or terrace sun shades. Manufactured to be practically maintenance free, they offer year-round elegance and function.
