Spring is in the air here in the UK. Finally the air feels warmer, the sun seems brighter and it is staying light later! Let us all hope for a good summer this year!

Now is a good time for you to start considering a purchase of a Sun Awning. Usually a custom made Sun Awning will take some weeks to manufacture, depending on the company that you use. The longer you leave it, the less likely you will have it during the busy summer months.

Sun Awnings are a great way to extend your home with the minimum of fuss and hassle. When the Awning is not in use it resides in a compact aluminium casing that can be quite discreet, depending on your frame colour choice. At the press of a button the Awning will extend giving a large area of shade and protection for the rays of the Sun.

Choosing a high quality Awning will not only guarantee that your Awning remains trouble free for many years, using high quality fabrics also give the best UV protection.

As everyone is aware, the rays of the sun can be extremely damaging to our skin. If you enjoy outdoor living then sun protection is a must. High quality Awning fabrics will keep you cool and protected allowing to you remain comfortably outdoors for as long as you desire.

The sun can also damage carpets and furnishings. On a nice sunny day you do not always want to have to close the curtains or shut the blind. However, by not doing so your room can get hot, you suffer the glare of the sun and your carpets and furnishings get damaged. With the use of a Sun Awning you can protect your furniture as well as remaining cool and all this without blocking the light or your view!

Many Awnings come with a choice of either electric or manual operation. The electric Awnings are now by far the most popular choice as they can be operated with no effort using a remote control. It is also possible to utilise a sun and wind sensor to automatically extend and retract your Awning even when you are not at home. This will keep your home cool and furnishings protected even whilst you are out!
