Enjoy your free time in the garden or on the balcony, even when the sun is already slowly setting. The lower the sun is, the more it shines under the awning, so additional glare protection makes sense. Many markilux awning models offer the shadeplus option for this purpose. If required, a vertical awning can be extended from the front profile - privacy and wind protection included.

In summer, we spend a lot of time outdoors to make the most of the nice weather. It is therefore all the more important that the outdoor area is also designed to be inviting and, at the same time, a safe retreat for the whole family. In addition to the classic awnings that provide protection from above, side sun protection should not be neglected. Because the sun moves and thus the shade also shifts during the day. In our assortment you will find both static and retractable lateral awning elements, which, following the example of our folding arm, pergola and external blinds, present themselves with a simultaneously robust and perfectly shaped design.
However, side screens not only provide shade, but are also suitable for privacy. Enjoy privacy on your patio or balcony - without the feeling of being watched. With the right awning cover, your neighbors will not be able to look at your terrace. However, due to the structure of the fabric, you can see through the slightly transparent fabric. This way, your view is preserved for the most part.
Vertical awnings as privacy also offer the advantage of keeping light wind off your patio or balcony. With an awning as a windbreak, your patio becomes a place of well-being. Enjoy the summer to the fullest - no matter whether the sun is shining, a light breeze is blowing or the neighbors on the balcony next door are also outside.
The wind and privacy protection from markilux with its textile character is suitable for both the private sector and the catering industry. If desired, we can equip our awning systems for business customers with side screens that efficiently shield outdoor seating areas and protect them from various weather conditions. Would you like to have your privacy printed? That is also possible with markilux.

Do awnings used as privacy screens have other functions?
Side screens are privacy screens for the garden, but of course, just like folding-arm awnings, they also serve as sun shades. This allows you to enjoy your favorite outdoor spot even when the sun is low, without being unpleasantly blinded. Another advantage is that the awning protects against light wind.

When is markilux shadeplus recommended as additional protection?
The vertical awning in the awning is particularly recommended for terraces and balconies with a south/south-west orientation, as it protects against low sun and rising wind in the evening.
