Athena profile retractable awning

Brasilia Athena

The Brasilia Athena is a traditional lateral arms awning. At its core, it is a square bar structure, with supports that hold a fabric roller and folding, spring-loaded arms. Simple and straightforward, it is the most common retractable type of awning in North America. Perfect to install under eaves where it will be protected, soft covers or aluminum hoods are also available separately and can be installed to protect a wall installed unit. While the soft cover can be used on wall installations or under soffits, the hood cover is only compatible with wall installations.

  • Protection from harmful UVA and UVB sun rays up to 99%
  • Soffit or wall installation
  • Compatible with soft covers and hood covers (sold separately)
  • Choose between manual or motorized
  • Motorized models include:
    • manual override and hand crank

Brasilia Europa semi-cassette awning

Brasilia Europa

The Brasilia Europa is a semi-cassette awning. Semi-cassette designs have existed for many years in Europe and they are newer to the North American market. They are based on a square bar structure like the traditional awnings but the hood cover is integrated to the design and protects the top and back of the fabric when the awning is closed. Semi-cassettes are a great product if your awning is not protected by eaves or overhangs. The housing keeps rain, snow, ice, dead leaves and debris away from the roller and structure of the awning without the need for additional protection.

  • Protection from harmful UVA and UVB sun rays up to 99%
  • Soffit or wall installation
  • Integrated cover, all inclusive design
  • Choose between manual or motorized
  • Motorized models include:
    • Tubular motor from Nice
    • Manual override and hand crank
    • Remote control
    • Wind sensor
    • Electrical cord is 24 feet long
