If you are looking for a solution to protect your terrace or garden from the sun and rain, you will probably have thought about putting up awnings. There are several types of awnings, but today we will focus on one model in particular: the box awning .

What is a box awning?

A box awning is a type of awning that is characterized by having a protective box that covers both the awning fabric and the extendable arms. Thanks to this box, the awning is completely protected when folded, which increases its durability and reduces the maintenance it requires.

Box awnings are ideal for those areas where exposure to the elements is more intense, such as coastal areas or places with strong winds. In addition, their elegant and minimalist design makes them ideal for all kinds of spaces, from terraces and balconies to gardens and patios.

Advantages of box awnings

Box awnings offer several advantages over other types of awnings. Some of them are:

  • Full protection of the awning when folded, which increases its durability.
  • Elegant and minimalist design that adapts to all kinds of spaces.
  • Greater wind resistance.
  • Personalization in terms of design and color.
  • Reduction of necessary maintenance thanks to the protection offered by the box.
  • Possibility of motorization

Since they can be large awnings, these are designed to be able to install a motor, allowing the awning to be opened and closed in a very short time using a remote control. Once motorized, the awning allows automation to be added, such as, for example, sun or wind sensors.

In short, if you are looking for a solution to protect your terrace or garden from the sun and the rain, box awnings are an excellent option. In addition to offering protection and resistance, their elegant and minimalist design makes them another decorative element for your home. Its hermetic design means that the useful life of the set is much higher than a conventional awning.
