Awnings Chislehurst

A half cassette is mostly covered by attached metal casing, but a section of the awning is still visible and can’t be retracted. 

With a full cassette, the entire awning will be covered by the metal casing when rolled in. Meaning that no part of the awning Chislehurst can be seen. 

These tend to be a better option for a more exposed property, whereas half cassettes are a wiser choice for sheltered patios and gardens. If you’re looking for awnings Chislehurst, then get in contact withour team now.

Yes. If an awning becomes wet due to light rainfall or for cleaning purposes, it will not cause damage to the fabric. However, please note that awnings Chislehurst are not designed to withstand heavy rainfall, and we recommend them not to be in use for these weather conditions. The weight of the water can cause an awning to sag which may result in stretched material. 

If you have had to retract your awning whilst wet, make sure to extend it as soon as possible in order for it to dry naturally.

You can place the pry bar in between the awning and the exterior wall, carefully prying the awnings off the wall. Complete this persistently until all of the awnings have been removed. Use filler for the damaged walls and you’re done! You can usually take the remaining aluminium to a scrap yard and get some money for the metal.
