Motorised retracting awning for private client.
Sydney
Issue
The owner recently installed an ornate steel frame in his courtyard and wanted a motorised retracting awning to provide protection from sun and rain.
Solution
The architect recognized the need for a custom awning solution and approached Outrigger to design and manufacture a unique awning that would follow the curved profile of the frame. The brief was for the awning
to be discrete and unobtrusive, blending in with the frame.
Features
The retracting awning measures 3.8m wide x 4.5m long and was custom-made to suit a curved steel pergola frame. The awning features idler rollers, a curved track system, and a concealed spring tension
mechanism.
Benefits
The awning greatly increases the usability of the space, effectively creating an outdoor room.
