Rail awning systems are retractable covers whose fabric moves along rails on bearings. They are widely used to cover café and restaurant gardens and verandas that open onto a garden. We manufacture and install them to measure in Kocaeli.
How does it work?
Profiles extend from a fixed point towards the open area and, where needed, are supported by posts fixed to the ground. The fabric runs on rails on this frame; motorised models are operated by remote control.
Advantages
- All-season use: protection from sun in summer and from rain and snow in winter.
- Blackout fabric: in our rail awnings we use blackout fabric that does not let water, snow or sunlight through and is flame-retardant.
- Easy operation: available motorised with remote control.
- Lighting: LED and other lighting options can be added.
- Design flexibility: metal parts can be clad in wood or made with wrought-iron details.
Rail awning or pergola?
For larger spans, integrated gutters and a fully enclosed area, pergola systems are the better choice. A rail awning can be a more economical moving cover attached to an existing structure. Sides can be closed with zip screens or glass systems.
What determines the price?
- Size of the area and number of posts
- Motor, remote control and lighting
- Extras such as wood cladding or wrought iron
- Façade and floor at the installation point
To define the right system together, request a site survey.
