Air lowClear PVC is great forunrestricted view through. If youare enclosing a verandah or patio,consider if you still want to have anice cool breeze coming through.If this is required, ensure youselect an open weave fabric witharound 10% openness.

Privacy & view throughThere are open & closed weaveawning fabrics. Consider if youwant day or night time privacy. Anopen weave fabric in a darkcolour gives fantastic viewthrough in the day, but alsoallows others to see in at night.

DurabilityBe mindful that when afabric is used outdoors it isexposed to the elements.Fabrics with DURAGUARD®Fabric Protector efectivelyrepel most stain-causingagents with its proven, waterbased, preventative formula.This fabric protection is totallyinvisible & makes cleaning thefabric so mucheasier.

Colour fastnessEnsure the fabric you choose hasexcellent fade resistance to thesun. Any fabric with faderesistance result of 6 & above willensure your fabric remains thecolour you selected for manyyears to come.

There are numerous choices of awning fabricon the market. We have provided a selection ofthe most popular choices below.

If choosing an alternative fabric, keep thefollowing in mind.

The Alpha Awning Series Bottom Rail holdsthe fabric taut & minimises any movementin windy situations. Designed with a subtlemodern curve, it seamlessly blends withthe headbox aesthetics.

Weight BarAn additional weight bar can beinserted into the heavy duty bottomrail. This is beneicial for smallerawnings that require additional weightto reduce bottom rail bounce &increase fabric tension.

Pile Brush & ValanceThe loor surface is often notperfectly level. When an awning isinstalled over a wide width therewill be room for light gaps, insects,debris, wind & rain to enter.

With the ability to insert either pilebrush or a fabric valance, this gapcan be eliminated thereforemaximising the functionality of theawning. These inserts also protectthe bottom rail from chipping ifdropped to the ground quickly.

Locking BoltSecures the awning intothe universal loor mountbracket or breechingstaple.

Hold Down StrapHold down straps can be used tohold the awning down at variouspoints across the width of theawning. Similar to the lockingbolts, the hold down clips insertinside the bottom rail for a cleanbottom rail inish.
