Everything you need to know before choosing awnings for your balconies can be found here.
Awnings have a dual function: they protect us from high temperatures and the sun’s harmful rays, and they shield us from the prying eyes of passersby and neighbors. To help you choose the best possible awnings, we have compiled the most comprehensive guide on which one best suits your balcony.
Avoid black.
To be more precise, it is advisable not to even consider installing black awnings on your veranda, as black absorbs the sun’s rays and will make you feel even hotter.
Avoid white.
The opposite happens with white. White fabric does not absorb the sun’s radiation; instead, it allows it to pass through, resulting in anyone sitting underneath feeling hot.
Say “no” to too many colors.
Floral patterns and anything jungle-themed might be in fashion this year, but it’s best not to choose such designs for your awnings. You will surely get tired of them very soon and won’t want to see them anymore.
Opt for striped awnings.
You will love soft stripes on your awnings. They are so discreet and beautiful that it’s impossible to get tired of them. Beyond that, know that stripes are and always will be in style. Choose a beautiful white-yellow, white-green, or white-beige, and you will be thrilled with the result.
Choose solid-colored awnings.
Finally, if you prefer something simpler, you can opt for solid colors for your awnings. A beautiful, soft shade of beige, pink, light blue, yellow, or green will ensure you never get tired of them.
Pay attention to the awning mechanism
The awning mechanism must be supported by a high-strength arm so that the awning fabric is perfectly taut and operates silently. It is very important that your awning can withstand weight and does not tear when it is windy or raining.
