Inquiries & FAQs
Why is my manual awning so hard to wind?
A stiff winding mechanism usually indicates a failing internal gearbox, stripped gears, or lack of lubrication. Continued forcing will snap the winder. We can replace the specific gearbox component quickly.
Do you repair commercial awnings for pubs and shops?
Yes, commercial repairs are our specialty. We understand that a broken shopfront or pub awning impacts your customers and branding. We provide rapid-response repairs to minimize business disruption.
