Frequently asked questions about drop-arm and projecting awnings

What is the difference between a drop-arm awning and a pop-up awning?2025-01-11T05:45:14+01:00

The main difference lies in the angle of projection and functionality. Drop-arm awnings, such as the METRO, offer a variable projection angle between 0° and 170° (up to 150° on some models), making them ideal for variable sun protection without restricting the view outside. Projecting awnings, such as the VISOMBRA, allow a projection angle of up to 180° and are ideal for precisely matching light and shade to create a warm and pleasant atmosphere.

For which areas of application are awnings suitable?2025-01-11T05:45:28+01:00

Retractable awnings such as the VISOMBRA are ideal for residential and commercial spaces where optimum light control and heat regulation are required. With a maximum projection angle of 180°, they create a pleasant mix of shade and daylight without the feeling of being closed off. They are ideal for windows, balconies and terraces.

Can drop-arm and projecting awnings be automated?2025-01-11T05:45:45+01:00

Yes, both types of awning can be equipped with motorized controls that enable convenient operation. Automation systems with sun and wind sensors offer additional protection and optimize use. These functions are particularly useful if the awning is regularly exposed to major weather changes.

Are drop-arm and projecting awnings easy to maintain?2025-01-11T05:45:59+01:00

Yes, both awning types are easy to clean. The fabrics and frames are weather-resistant and can be easily cleaned with a damp cloth. Regular inspection of the mechanical components, such as the drop arms, ensures long-term and trouble-free use.

Are there additional extensions for these awning types?2025-01-11T05:46:12+01:00

Yes, both types can be fitted with protective boxes, such as a round or square box, to protect the fabric from the weather. They also offer coupling options so that several systems can be linked together to cover larger areas.
