There are 3 different types of awnings in the market. Their descriptions are given below.

(1) Standard awnings

The standard retractable awnings normally consist of an aluminum roller with brackets attached to both ends and a gearbox with a winding hook. The entire assembly has an attachment with a steel rod in square shape, which is then attached to wall brackets.

A standard awning usually has 3 wall brackets with a width of 4 meters and 2 wall brackets with a width of 3 meters. These awnings are the cheapest of all other types as they are fairly simple and simple in construction.

(2) Half cassette awnings

Semi-cassette awnings are made of ¾ aluminum tubing, which has a round shape and an essential construction in which the canvas and aluminum roller tube are arranged. These awnings are available both with and without the functions of a motor and a remote control. Semi-cassette awnings are much more advanced than standard awnings. They are much stronger and last longer than the other types of awnings.

(3) Full cassette awnings

These awnings are a bit cheaper and of lower quality.

If you want to get some nice retractable awnings that you expect to have some time off, it is best to take half a cassette awning as these are the strongest and most reliable ones. You can confidently rely on it with your money.
