Awnings

The typical garden awnings available here at Gardeners World are made as large structures that stand above the ground and incorporate a thick canopy that sits around a sturdy structure. These pieces are similar to other garden canopies, creating a shaded area that works to keep the sun from shining through and dazzling those underneath, all the while keeping any rainfall at bay, covering the area below effectively. Unlike some other pieces however, these awnings are free standing and can be placed on any even surface within your garden, working well on the lawn or a paved or decked space to create a fine al fresco spot for summer mealtimes and barbecues.

Within the Gardeners World range of awnings, a typically four legged design is used that supports the piece well, standing tall above the ground to free up the space below. Above, a cross over type design is incorporated that creates a sturdy structure overall, allowing a canopy to be hanged from above. Along with this, these awnings leave the option of working with or without a fabric canopy, in each case creating a distinctive feature that can really catch the eye within your garden.

A number of materials are used for this range of awnings, with each one forming a sturdy make up that is well suited to the outdoors. A wooden frame is perhaps one of the most common, creating a natural style that is used in a number of different garden pieces, creating a great look that will work well within this setting. As well as this, the wood offers a reliability through its common use in the outdoors, this material creating a hard wearing structure that is able to cope well with any strain that it may come up against, while a certain amount of natural resilience keeps the elements at bay.

Along with wood, metal is also used, creating a sturdy form that brings great levels of strength and structural integrity. This metal is generally treated with a powder coating or other such process that creates a weather resistant covering that keeps it from rusting or becoming broken down, thus keeping your awning in great condition.
