Drop-down awnings are designed to provide protection against sun and weather, protecting the area below from excessive sun and weather exposure. They are made of water- and sun-resistant materials, such as PVC fabrics or technical fabrics, which are able to withstand extreme weather conditions.
Drop-down awnings can be operated manually or by an electric motor, depending on the model. Some drop awnings are equipped with a lateral guide system, which keeps them well tensioned and stable even in moderate winds.
