Auto Guide Awnings

Traditional and popular awning

Live Comfortably.

Cover and protect your windows and patios from the sun with our retractable shade awnings.

A popular traditional style external awning, the Auto Guide Awning, sometimes known as the Automatic Awning or Lock Arm Awning, is a familiar sight on Adelaide homes.

The awning is raised and lowered to whatever position you want, by simply sliding the arms on the guide rods. This flexibility lets you control how much light and heat comes through the window.

Auto Guide Awnings let the air in whilst blocking out light

Available in a number of projections, Auto Guide Awnings sit close to the window to shade it while letting air through. The auto locking arms allow the awning to be secured at any height and can be adjusted by hand or with a pull-stick. Tension in the blind is maintained by a spring that sits neatly within the top aluminium roller tube.

Stan Bond Auto Guide Awnings are most often installed on the face of ground floor windows but can also be used on balcony windows or outdoor patio posts where there's a suitable fixing point. The Awnings also come with the option of matching hooding to provide the finishing touch to your new window feature.

Auto guide awnings are one style in our outdoor blinds range. Where the shade needs to project further from the wall, see folding arm awnings. For an arm that angles out from the window, see pivot arm awnings. For a drop over a verandah or patio opening, see straight drop awnings.
