Like the fabric-cassette the classic design incorporates a 40mm square back bar which gives great versatility for fitting brackets on tricky installations. This also allows various options that can’t be incorporated into a full cassette such as oversquare where the projection is greater than the width and adjustable pitch. The awning can also have an optional extruded aluminium pelmet to protect the awning from weather when it is retracted.
The Helioshade classic folding arm awning also has an optional drop down adjustable valance.
