Side-Arm Awnings in Ilkley
Most Ilkley side-arm briefs come from customers who need targeted shade on a specific door or window — not a whole patio. A folding-arm cassette is engineered for that: 2m to 4m projection, wall-mounted, no post interference on the patio.
What Ilkley customers usually ask for
moorland micro-climate: colder nights, real wind loads, and driving horizontal rain — engineering to the wind zone is essential. The side-arm awning we build for Ilkley accounts for this in the frame section, the roof pitch, and the drainage detail.
