WHAT IS AN AUTO-LOCK CANVAS AWNING?
Auto lock canvas awnings are the traditional quintessential Australian awning. Their simplistic design, high durability and excellent solar properties is what has made them so popular for the last 50 years. This awning is made up of a colorbond metal headbox which houses the roller tube and the canvas fabric. The awning fabric runs vertically down the window guided by 2 guide rails and the awnings arms. These arms lock into place once the desired level is reached...hence the name 'auto lock' canvas awnings. The awning arms which guide the fabric down are available in 150mm and 300mm arm lengths. It is this arm length which give the awning its pitch and also allows for airflow behind the fabric preventing heat building up between the canvas and window. Auto lock canvas awnings are very effective at keeping the sun and heat out. Its simple design will create a cool and comfortable environment for a buildings occupants and reduce the amount energy required to regulate a buildings temperature. At Motorised Blinds Australia all of our canvas awnings are manufactured right here in Melbourne and are custom made to fit your window.
