Nationwide have been installing custom made Awnings across the UK for over 30 years.
For those looking for a more all-weather solution then our range of Sun & Rain Awnings may be the product for you.
Rain Awnings use an aluminium frame with support posts at the front. This allows for much larger sizes than a traditional Patio Awning and also allows for use in tougher weather conditions.
Utilising the same UV protective fabric as our other Awnings, you have the benefit both sun protection and also use in moderate rain fall.
The term "Awning" can relate to many products. However, in our industry, an awning is a retractable product designed for providing shade, usually manufactured from an aluminium frame and an acrylic based fabric. It is generally mounted to wall of a property (though can be freestanding) and extended using a spring-loaded folding arm that retracts back into a cassette when not in use.
Request QuoteThe primary difference between a standard Awning and a Sun & Rain Awning is the Sun & Rain Awning utilises a frame including guide rails and front posts.
This provides much more rigidity which in turn allows much larger projections and in turn, allows for use in stronger winds and heavier rains.

With 50,000+ satisfied customers, backed by an unwavering commitment to exceptional quality and service.
For rain water to effectively run off of the fabric a minimum pitch (angle) should be set to at least 14 degrees.
This is not always possible or practical and, in these instances, we can provide an adjustable post that easily drops one side of the Awning down for those times you need rain protection.
Request QuoteThe new innovative Tumba Awning overcomes the 14 degree limitation using a unique locking and tensioning system. Allowing water run off at just 8 degrees.
When the Tumba Awning is fully extended, the fabric is then automatically tensioned like a trampoline. Water then has nowhere to go but into the integral gutter system and out of the bottom of the posts.
With it's minimalistic frame, stylish and innovative design and with projections up to 5m you can see why this product won the Red Dot Design Award.
Request QuoteFor even larger sizes be sure to check out our range of Aluminium Pergolas including Terrace Roof Awning Systems.
These Awning systems allow for use in almost all of the great British weather and provide huge areas of shade and shelter. Ideal for Cafes, Restaurants and schools.
