Markilux 1300

Prices Starting From £1585 +VAT

With a compact cassette awning and distinctly shaped arms that provide taut cover when the awning is extended, the Markilux 1300 is ergonomically designed for functionality and elegance. It’s an attractive awning with round steel-link chains for smoother operation and polished chrome end caps, as well as a range of fabric options to choose from.

This awning is made from long-lasting materials that are tough and durable, such as corrosion-proof stainless steel pivot bolts, aluminium joints and a twist-resistant torque bar to keep the awning cover taut and secure. The adjustable pitch means the awning can be adapted to deal with the sun’s movement throughout the day, with a wide pitch angle range of between 4 and 85 degrees for incredible flexibility and protection from the sun. You can have the 1300 awning installed for manual operation or automated.

In the event of rain, the water is channelled off the sides of the awning rather than risking a build-up of water in the front – a unique touch that sets a Markilux awning from others on the market. There are also optional extras to customise your Markilux 1300 awning, such as an LED line in the front profile to make use of the evenings as well as days outdoors, and the ShadePlus valance for added privacy and protection from the sun.
