You’ve decided it’s finally time to buy some awnings to get that much needed shade during unbearable summer months. You’ve made a good decision – Awnings are a great shade solution that can make your patio, deck, and porch more comfortable and incredibly cooler during hot summer months.

To help you with the next step of actually buying your awnings, below I’ve listed some tips that will help you find the best awnings in Perth.

Know the types of awnings available in the market.

There are different types of awnings that you can choose from depending on the intended application. Your options include fabric awnings, retractable awnings, and stationary awnings.

  • Fabric awnings provide weather protection and are also often used for decoration in restaurants and other shops. This is wholly supported by the building where it is attached and is composed of a lightweight frame and durable fabric.
  • Retractable awning offers great features that you can take advantage of depending on your budget. These can instantly provide that much-needed shade with just a push of a button. You can also choose automatic or manual, sensor-activated or remote controls that allow you to easily open or close the awnings from both the inside and outside. Also ready my previous post ‘Why retractable awnings are so handy for the home’ for more information.
  • Stationary awnings are custom fit to the outdoor space where they will be used. They are idea for carports, balconies, windows, and entryways.

Choose awning styles.
