Patio Awnings
Patio Awnings by Abacus
What are Patio Awnings?
Patio Awnings allow you to instantly control the sun and shade on your terrace or patio. Choose from robust, elegant designs with retractable arms, offering superior wind-resistance and durability. They are perfect for residential gardens and shop fronts.
As an official partner of the Weinor Group, we are proud to supply and install these award-winning, German-engineered patio awnings. The Weinor name is synonymous with premium quality, innovative technology, and long-lasting components, ensuring your outdoor shading solution is one of the best available on the market.
The Ultimate in Outdoor Living With an awning, you decide how much shade is right for your space. Abacus Blinds supplies and installs high-quality Weinor patio awnings, renowned for their elegance and durability. Choose from models with retractable arms or classic drop arms to perfectly suit your patio or shop front. For maximum protection, a closed cassette awning neatly stores the fabric and components away from the weather when not in use. Enjoy your outdoor space from breakfast through to the evening.
Common Questions
Q: What types of patio awnings do you offer?
A: We offer high-quality retractable arm awnings. We also specialise in closed cassette awnings, which fully protect the fabric and components from the weather when retracted.
Q: Can I have my awning motorised?
A: Yes. Motorisation with remote control is a highly popular option that provides effortless, user-friendly control. We can also integrate optional accessories like LED lighting and heating to help you use your outdoor space well into the evenings.
Q: How strong are your awnings against wind and rain?
A: The awnings we supply (such as the Weinor brand) are built to be robust, durable, and highly wind-resistant. The fabrics are high-quality acrylic, treated against water and dirt, and designed to maintain high colourfastness for many years.
Q: Do you offer a measure and fitting service?
A: Absolutely. We provide a comprehensive service that includes a free, no-obligation quote, professional measurement, and expert installation of your awning across Maidstone, Kent, and surrounding areas.
Q: What is the difference between a cassette and an open awning?
A: A closed cassette awning fully encloses the roller, fabric, and components within a sealed box when closed, protecting them entirely from the weather. An open awning leaves the mechanisms partially or fully exposed.
Q: What is the wind resistance rating of your awnings?
A: Our awnings have a wind resistance rating of Beaufort 5. For reference, this means they can withstand wind speeds up to approximately 20mph (32 km/h). We always recommend retracting your awning during strong or gusty conditions to ensure its longevity.
Q: How do I choose the colour and fabric?
A: We will bring the complete collection of hundreds of acrylic and eco fabrics to you during your in-home design consultation. This allows you to view and match the material perfectly to your property’s exterior.
