FAQs - Awnings

When it comes to protecting your outdoor areas, full cassette awnings such as Markilux offer unmatched durability and style. The clever architecture of these awnings encases the fabric and moving parts within a cassette, effectively shielding them from environmental factors. This ensures not only a longer lifespan for the awning but also sustained aesthetic appeal, keeping your outdoor spaces functional and attractive all year long.

Yes, waterproof awnings from The Shade Studio are key to protecting your patio space from rain. Our premium Markilux & Luxaflex fabrics are designed to keep your area dry while avoiding water accumulation that could harm the awning's material. By retracting your awning in wet weather, you can enhance its longevity and preserve its visual appeal, ensuring your outdoor space remains a welcoming retreat in any weather.

Without a doubt, a bungalow or any single-story home can be fitted with an awning providing a viable option.

When wind speed increases, the vibration sensors are triggered to retract the awning instantly, protecting it from potential high-wind damage.

The Shade Studio ensures that each of our motorized awnings is designed for seamless integration into your home. While it's true that drilling is required for installation to connect the awning to a power source, our team of professionals handles every step to ensure a smooth, hassle-free setup, guaranteeing your awning is ready for immediate use.

The Shade Studio is equipped to handle installations where obstructions like drain pipes or uneven walls are present. By employing specialised parts, we guarantee a flawless fit and function for your awning, regardless of any architectural challenges.

For homeowners wondering about the necessity of planning permission for retractable awnings, rest assured that in most scenarios, it's not required. However, exceptions include situations where the awning encroaches upon neighbouring space or if the property falls within a conservation zone or is a listed building. To avoid any legal hiccups, it's wise to consult your local planning office before purchasing.

At The Shade Studio, we understand that everyone's needs are unique. That's why awning prices are customised based on the size and additional functionalities you choose. Reach out with the specifications of your space (width x depth) and any specific awning models you're considering, and we'll craft a personalised estimate for you.
