Carve out a private patio retreat with this 71 x 236 in. (5.91 x 19.68 ft.) retractable side awning, designed to block low-angle sunlight, crosswinds, and neighbor sightlines along long backyard patios, decks, and pool surrounds. An aluminum alloy roller tube paired with a spring steel retraction mechanism delivers even tension across the full extension, and a side-pull design feeds the fabric neatly back into the frame when the day ends. The 180 g/m2 polyester fabric carries a PU coating that supplies 30+ sun protection and basic water resistance, blocking glare and light rain so morning coffees and evening barbecues stay comfortable; we recommend retracting the awning during heavy rain or strong winds. A powder-coated iron main frame, telescopic pole, and support post stand up to humidity and seasonal weather, while a 2-degree tilt design and taller end post help reduce fabric sag over long extensions. Included mounting hardware fits concrete walls, brick walls, and wood decks, so installation works across garden walls, balcony rails, and courtyard corners. The unit weighs 39.7 lb. (18 kg), so plan to lift and mount with a partner or a sturdy ladder helper for safer setup. Whether you are a homeowner adding outdoor living space or a Pro contractor installing for a client, this side awning brings real shade and privacy in a clean, modern beige.
