Victorian Box Awning

Made for the elements. Designed for life.

Product Description

Our bespoke Victorian Box Awning is the quintessentially British traditional shop blind design that is still hand-made today.

An obvious choice for buildings of historical interest and often insisted upon by councils for conservation areas (though it can look equally as impressive for modern establishments), the structure has lasted for centuries due to its strength and practicality.

If being used as a business or shop canopy/sign, signage can be added, which is a great way to promote your business name or to advertise the services and products available.

Properties:

Manufactured in FSA accredited hardwood, stained to show the beauty of the natural wood or can be painted to match the facia colour.

Fixed-arm or slide-arm options.

It must be noted that the awning cannot withstand snow loading.

Choice of a scalloped or straight valance to suit

Corrosion-resistant extruded steel hardware.

Operation is spring tensioned.

Slim, flush timber box ensuring that the fabric and components are protected from the weather when retracted.

Width (mm): Up to 6,000 in a single section.

Projection (mm): 3,000

We provide a full survey, manufacture and installation service. As all our products are custom-made we can manufacture and deliver, or we can also recover your existing canopy.

We don’t recommend these systems to be left out in the strong wind and cannot guarantee wind damage under any circumstances.
