    What Are Folding Arm Awnings

    Folding Arm Awnings are retractable shade systems that extend out from the wall to provide shelter from sun and light rain, then neatly fold away when not in use. Unlike fixed structures, these awnings give you control over how much shade you need and maintain unobstructed views when retracted.

    Awnings Sensors Available

    Becker Motion Sensor

    Motion Sensor (Becker)

    Detects the movement of the awning fabric and automatically retracts the awning if the fabric begins to move too much. This can help to protect the awning from damage in windy conditions.

    Sun and Wind Sensor

    Sun & Wind Sensors

    This is a combined sensor that measures both level of sun as well as the level of wind. This type of sensor offers you the ultimate in automation allowing protection of furniture and reducing heating costs in your home.
    Rain Sensor

    Rain Sensor

    Rain sensor is ideal for situations where an awning cannot be installed with a steep pitch. An adequate pitch (angle) is essential to allow rain to run off the awning. If the angle is too shallow, rain pools on the awning and stretches the fabric.

    Product Care & Operating Instruction

    Motion and wind sensors are not a guaranty to protect your awning from damage, things like where the awning is installed how exposed it is all play a part, what is the sensitivity set on the sensor also these items have a delay to react it also takes time for the motor to fully retract if in doubt of the weather conditions you should not leave the awning out unattended.
