A compact retractable awning that gives you comfortable shade without overwhelming smaller outdoor spaces.
When space is limited, shade shouldn’t be
Balconies and compact patios can heat up fast, but many awnings look bulky or feel like overkill for a smaller area.
Base Lite gives you proper retractable shade in a neater format, so your outdoor space stays open and comfortable.
Fits smaller spaces without feeling heavy
Base Lite is designed in smaller proportions than larger folding arm awnings, making it a great match for balconies, patio doors, and compact seating areas.
That means you get shade where you need it, while keeping the area feeling bright and usable.
Fully enclosed cassette helps protect the fabric
This is a fully cassetted system, so when the awning is retracted the fabric is enclosed inside the cassette.
It keeps things looking tidy and helps shield the fabric when you’re not using it.
Choose top fixing or face fixing to suit your wall
Base Lite can be installed top fixed or face fixed, with a bracket at either end. This gives you flexibility for different mounting positions, which is especially helpful for balconies and tighter installations.
Simple pitch adjustment so the shade lands where you want
The pitch adjusts using a screw-in system, so you can set the angle to suit your space. That’s useful if you want to block glare through patio doors, or create a more comfortable sitting area outside.
Manual or motorised operation for day-to-day ease
You can choose manual operation or motorised operation, depending on what suits you. If you use your awning often, motorised control can make it feel effortless. If you prefer simple and straightforward, manual keeps it easy.
Made to measure for a cleaner finish
Each awning is made to your required size within the available limits.
A better fit looks better, and it also helps your awning sit neatly and work smoothly.
