The Victorian Awning

Outstanding Craftsmanship

The Victorian Awning – A Very British Awning

The Victorian Awning has long been regarded as an elegant and timeless solution to complete any shopfront or fascia. The Victorian is hand-crafted and its features include a classic hardwood housing, steel-forged arms and a specially developed weather-proof fabric covering. These features give the awning a traditional, yet robust quality which is much sought after across the world. The awning is also extremely customisable and has been used in a broad range of applications to achieve a contrasting aesthetic.

Finishes

Fabric Plain

We use the finest cloth. It is specially treated acrylic canvas that is Teflon coated to deal with the worst of the British weather. This secret process ensures that your awning is water-proof, rot-proof, shrink-proof and stain resistant with an additional anti-mildew treatment. It is also flame-retardant and extremely durable.

We also have a huge range of colours, as well as being able to match special colours.

Fabric Striped

Other combinations of colours also available.

Metalwork

All metal components are of the highest quality. We use stainless steel awning chain and our barrels are galvanised steel with high quality internal steel springs concealed inside. Arms are manufactured from high grade steel for extra strength. They are custom made for each individual application, tailored to follow the shape of the building upon which the awning will be installed.

There are over twenty metallic colour finishes for your metalwork.

Timber Colour

We always make the box that encases the cover and roller from solid timber not aluminium or steel replicas, which are common but inferior alternatives. We only use treated hardwood timber which resists warping and deteriorating. The box is given numerous coats of paint applied by hand to customers colour specifications. There is a choice of timber options including English, Jacobean and light oak, English and aged mahogany and Pacific cedar which can all be varnished to allow the natural grain to show.
