Add a small, sharp slice of privacy to a balcony, townhouse patio, or zero-lot-line backyard with this 71 x 118 in. (5.91 x 9.84 ft.) retractable side awning in a clean black finish. The compact footprint focuses screening where you need it most: blocking neighbor sightlines from a corner deck, softening low-angle glare during a morning coffee, or sectioning off an outdoor lounging zone. A PU-coated 180 g/m2 polyester fabric provides 30+ sun protection and basic water resistance, while an aluminum alloy roller tube paired with a spring steel retraction mechanism keeps tension even and pulls fabric in smoothly when wind picks up; we recommend retracting the awning during heavy rain or strong winds. A powder-coated iron main frame, telescopic pole, and support post resist humidity and seasonal weather, and a 2-degree tilt design with taller end post keep the panel from sagging across the shorter run. Included mounting hardware fits concrete walls, brick walls, and wood decks, so installation works on apartment balconies, condo patios, and detached-home garden walls. The unit weighs 20.8 lb. (9.42 kg), light enough for one capable adult to position but easier with a helper for accurate mounting. Whether you are tightening up an apartment balcony or finishing a garden corner, this compact side awning delivers shade and privacy on demand.
