Advice on the things you need to consider when choosing an awning for your outside space.
Interior stylist Sally Cullen shares her top tips for styling your outdoor space.
We've answered common questions about Hillarys awnings below. If you can't find what you're looking for, please see our general FAQs.
No, we would always advise against using an awning when it’s windy. As a backup, our awnings are fitted with vibration sensors as standard which automatically retract the fabric when the wind picks up. However, to be safe, don't use your awning on a windy day, as this may damage the fabric, or the frame.
No, leaving your awning out in the rain won’t do the fabric any good, and over time it could even damage it. So it's always best to check the weather forecast before use. If you forget to retract your awning during a rain shower, make sure you leave it out to dry before closing it. This will help to prevent fabric damage.
Yes, we've accessories including lighting and heating which can be added to your awning to create a cosy area in the winter months. Please make sure you check the weather forecast as rain, snow and wind can all cause damage. Heating and lighting are great additions for summer evenings too and will help you enjoy the al fresco lifestyle even when the temperature drops.
The best way to keep awnings looking fresh for longer is to make sure they are fully retracted into their protective cassettes after every use. If your awning is in need of a clean, we recommend starting off with a sponge and soapy water. Special shampoo is available from the high street or online, but please read the label carefully before using it on your awning, then begin with a small, less visible area. Please don't use a pressure washer or bleach. These will quickly damage the structure of the fabric.
Yes, they can bring many benefits to a home. Retractable awnings increase the desirability of your outdoor space, as they provide shade and coverage, for outdoor living. They also increase the kerb appeal of your home, which can increase the value of the property.
For residential properties, it's very rare for retractable awnings to require planning permission. Possible exceptions may be if the garden canopy encroaches on another property, or you live in a listed building or conservation area. If you're in doubt, it's best to check with your local authority before buying an awning
Yes, measuring and fitting are included as standard. Even the most competent diy-er could struggle to measure and install an awning, so sit back, relax, and let your local Hillarys advisor transform your outdoor space.
There’s a really wide range of colours and materials available, so you’ll be spoilt for choice. You can choose to match the fabric to your garden furniture, indoor furniture, or even the rendering or brickwork of your home. If you're unsure about colours, your local advisor can make tailored recommendations for your outdoor space. You can also take a look at our website galleries and social media channels to see how other customers have used awnings in their gardens.
