Product Information
Full details
The VidaXL Patio Retractable Side Awning in Cream is designed for homeowners seeking to enhance privacy and create comfortable outdoor spaces on terraces, patios, or balconies. Its key benefit is providing an adjustable, wind-resistant, and sun-blocking barrier. A potential consideration is its fixed height, which may limit placement options in some areas. This awning offers UV-resistant, water-resistant, and tear-resistant polyester fabric, a sturdy steel base, and an automatic roll-back function for easy retraction.

FAQs
What is the maximum width the awning can extend to?

What material is the fabric made of?
The fabric is made of 100% polyester with a PU coating and has a weight of 180 g/m².
Is the awning completely waterproof?
The fabric is water-resistant, meaning it can withstand light rain, but it is not designed for prolonged heavy downpours.
Does the awning come pre-assembled?
The cassette is installed on a steel base, and the retractable awning is part of this assembly. Mounting accessories are included for final installation.
Can the height of the awning be adjusted?
The height of the awning is fixed at 140 cm. The width is adjustable from 0 to 600 cm.
What is the 'automatic roll-back function'?
This function allows the awning to be smoothly and automatically retracted back into its cassette when you no longer need it extended.
How should I clean the awning fabric?
Gently clean the fabric with a damp cloth and mild soap. Rinse with clean water and allow it to dry completely before retracting.
Troubleshooting
Awning does not extend smoothly.
Check for any obstructions preventing the fabric from unrolling. Ensure the base is stable and the cassette is mounted vertically.
Awning does not retract automatically.
Ensure the retraction mechanism is not jammed. Clean any dirt or debris from the fabric and roller. Manual retraction might be possible if the automatic function fails; consult product instructions.
Fabric seems loose or sagging.
Ensure the awning is fully extended and locked in place. If the issue persists, check the tension mechanism if applicable, or contact customer support.
Mounting base feels unstable.
Re-secure all mounting bolts and ensure the base is on a level and firm surface. Use appropriate anchors for your ground type if necessary.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The awning cassette is designed to be mounted vertically on a sturdy steel base. Ensure the base is securely fixed to the ground or a suitable structure. The retractable awning can then be pulled straight out from the cassette. All necessary mounting accessories are included in the delivery.
Compatibility: This awning is best suited for flat, stable surfaces where the steel base can be firmly anchored. It is ideal for terraces, patios, and balconies.
Care: To maintain the awning's condition, regularly clean the fabric with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. When not in use, especially during severe weather conditions like heavy rain or strong winds, it is recommended to retract the awning to prolong its lifespan. Ensure the fabric is dry before retracting to prevent mildew.
