Owning A Patio Awning: What You Need To Know 1

Owning A Patio Awning: What You Need To Know

We are fortunate to live in a country where everyone gets the chance to experience the glorious weather every day. But sometimes, the heat can be taxing and becomes too much to bear. This mainly happens when you have not yet decided to invest anything in these awnings. Everyone likes the summer season, but it becomes a matter of concern when the heat is too. Awnings’ beauty is they allow the users to get entertained outdoors even if the days are hottest. Let us read about some common facts that we must remember when we are owning it:-

  • Types 

One of the crucial questions you must ask about awning is the best type? The answer is very much simple. The appropriate type is the one that will fit according to your budget and needs. There are two common types- fixed and retractable awnings. 

The fixed awnings offer much more flexibility than the other ones. They are also much cheaper. They are permanent fixtures, so these awnings tend to be much more sturdy as well as robust. 

On the other hand, the retractable ones can retract and expand whenever they are required or not required. These can be both motorized as well as manual. They also come in different styles, which include vertical screen, pivot arm, and folding arm. They are much more expensive than the fixed ones. 

  • Size

One of the other important considerations is the size of the patio awning. You need to first look at the size of the place where the patio will be fitted. Height and weight are the significant factors that need to be considered. 

In the case of a large area, fixed ones are much better. They are designed to cover any big area, which is not possible in retractable awnings. Posts are needed to support the fixed ones. You also need to keep in mind the color as it plays a significant role in preventing ultraviolet rays from the sun. There is also an advantage of the darker color as it tends to reflect more ultraviolet rays and keeps on absorbing more heat compared to the lighter ones. 

  • Material 

Another essential point that you must keep in mind when you own a patio is the material that will cover. There are two choices that you will get- non-waterproof and waterproof. The ones made from shade clothes are cost-effective, but they do not protect against the rain. Waterproof awnings are made of PVC fabrics and are expensive. At the same time, they also tend to provide 100% protection. 

  • Frames

Lastly, it would be best if you also looked after the frames. There are two options- metal and aluminum. The option of aluminum is much more affordable, but they do not end up providing more longevity. On the other hand, the metal ones are a bit expensive but require a lot of maintenance.
