When you have a terrace, you have an ideal space to enjoy at any time, especially if it has certain dimensions. The awnings for terrace are essential to take advantage of this space of the house throughout the year.

What kind of awnings can we put on a terrace? The truth is that there are many existing proposals that will allow us to enjoy this space with maximum comfort.

What are the ideal awnings for a terrace?

A good proposal are the pergolas or foldable awnings, something that is great on terraces that have a large space. In addition, if lateral protections are placed, you will have a formidable space to enjoy the terrace even when it rains.

The awnings of straight point are one of the most traditional systems used in the terraces. They are very simple to use since they work by means of a system of folding frontal arms.

Another proposal for terraces of a certain size are the extensible awnings, which are characterized by their arms transmission system. They are anchored to the walls and can be extended enough to cover a large part of the terrace. As with the pergolas, elements can also be incorporated on the sides to protect the gusts of wind and rain.

In case of having a terrace of reduced dimensions, the canopy awnings are ideal. They can be fixed, they always keep the same shape and the mobiles can be collected. Remember that this kind of awnings are for small terraces that barely fit two chairs and a table.

Although there are more, we did not want to finish this article without one of the most used, the cassette awning. In this case, both the canvas and the arms can be stored when there is a lot of wind or when the awning is not going to be used. In this way it is preserved from pollution, dust and dirt as well as sun and rain, making its operational life much longer than other models.
