ᐅ Awning, Shading – A Guide to Choosing

I need some advice regarding an awning.
Our terrace faces south and measures 10 meters (33 feet) wide and 4.30 meters (14 feet) deep. Since it gets quite warm in summer, we need some shade. We don’t want umbrellas. Originally, we considered a fixed roof, but we discarded that option because 1. it is too expensive, and 2. we don’t like the posts.
You enter the terrace through a sliding door on the right half and then sit on the left half.

Now I have two offers but can’t really decide. What do you think?

Option 1: Klaiber Resobox BX8000
ONE awning, 9.40 meters (31 feet) wide with a 4-meter (13 feet) projection.
+ Possibly looks better
- We like the cassette less than that of the BX4500

Option 2: Klaiber Camabox BX4500
TWO awnings placed directly next to each other: one 5 meters (16 feet) and one 4.4 meters (14 feet) wide, each with a 4-meter (13 feet) projection.
+ We like the cassette of this model much better
+ More flexibility in shading different sides of the terrace
- Gap between the awnings
- Both awnings must be installed perfectly to look right

Option 2 is about 300€ more expensive, which is not a decisive factor.

Hi,
so we are going with a linked awning with continuous fabric. Next week I have an appointment regarding the fabric and cassette color. Where did you get the price from?
In my quote, a 520cm x 400cm (205 inches x 157 inches) awning costs €4,242 gross.

You should be able to get the price from a local dealer as well. Check the website to see which dealer near you sells Weinor products. I would avoid ordering from a distant location.

No, we ultimately chose an aluminum patio roof with shading from Tuinmaximaal. Luckily, because Tuinmaximaal was really affordable and also good quality.
A glass roof with integrated shading underneath is simply very comfortable. Today we laid the glass panels and started installing the shading.
The kit is easy to work with using the right tools. A material hoist is essential.
The glass panels, weighing 140 kg (310 lbs) each, were the biggest challenge.
