Markilux 730

A fantastic window awning system that’s well-suited to smaller areas, the Markilux 730/830 produces up to 7m in width and features a full cassette design. This awning can be face or top-fitted and has a discreet housing that is only 95mm in height to sit neatly into any building without being obstructive.

If you have a smaller window or balcony and want to benefit from solar shading, the 730/830 model is perfect. The drop arm awning has a cassette system with steel gas pistons that allow for smoother control, and the awning itself provides excellent tension.

The 730/830 has a spring-assisted locking mechanism which keeps it stable and secure, as well as the choice of a square or rounded cassette depending on the style that best suits your property. Designed to withstand winds of up to 23mph, you’ll be protected from sun and wind for year-long use.
