A shape to suit your façade

An anodised aluminium frame is covered in acrylic or PVC fabric and finished in any RAL colour, tailored to the size and style of each opening.

Basket (domed)

The domed canopy creates a classic, recognisable silhouette above a shop window or main entrance. Its generous surface offers plenty of room for your business name.

Arched (semicircular)

A graceful curved awning follows the line of arched windows or balcony doors and complements the building’s architecture.

Straight (box-shaped)

Clean straight lines make this a restrained, modern choice for minimalist façades or a continuous row of windows.

Why choose a basket awning

Space for your branding

The valance and fabric can carry your business name, logo or graphic design.

Made to fit the opening

Size and shape — domed, arched or straight — are chosen to fit each window or entrance.

Protection from the sun and rain

The fabric shields the entrance, shopfront or window from direct sun and rain.

Built to last

The anodised aluminium frame retains its shape and colour for years.

Compact structure

The basic fixed version has no moving parts and needs no clearance for retraction.

Optional operation

The standard model is fixed; retractable versions can use a cord, crank or electric motor.

What the structure includes

The fabric is stretched over a wall-mounted anodised aluminium frame with a fixed shape.

  • Frame (profiles forming a dome, arch or straight box)
  • Wall-fitting supports
  • Fabric — acrylic or PVC
  • Valance — decorative edge with space for a name or logo
  • Side caps / frame covers
  • Motor and remote control — optional for retractable models
