No front posts

The awning is cantilevered. It hangs off the wall with nothing standing underneath, which keeps entrances, walkways and narrow patios clear.

What decides the design

The wall or supporting frame, the projection you want, the covering, the exposure and the loads all set what is possible. We set the final projection once the wall has been checked.

Roof and drainage

You can choose a roof or a shade covering. That choice changes the frame, the waterproofing where it meets the building, and the drainage.

When posts are the better answer

If the wall cannot carry a cantilever safely or economically, an Attached Pergola with front supports may be the better fit.

Finish

Powder coating, sandblasting and primer, electroplating or hot-dip galvanising: the finish sets how long the paint and rust cover lasts where you live. The warranty page has the table.

Questions about Awning Pergola

Can I bring my own design or architect's drawing?

Yes. Send a sketch, photo or architect's drawing and we will tell you whether we can make it. We don't certify structural designs; where an engineer is needed, we build to their drawings.

Should I choose mild steel, galvanised steel or aluminium?

Inland, powder-coated steel is fine. Near the coast or where sprinklers hit the steel, choose hot-dip galvanised steel. Within sight of the sea, choose aluminium: the Alu-Deluxe range does not rust the way steel does.
