What are custom-made awnings?
Custom awnings are tailored to your window, facade, style, and desired shade. This is important, because an awning should not only look good but also block sufficient sun. STERK will visit you, bring samples, and discuss the model, size, color, and material. This way, you won't get a standard solution, but advice that suits your situation.
Maintenance and lifespan of custom awnings
The lifespan of custom-made awnings depends on material, fabric quality, location, and maintenance. Remove dirt promptly, clean the fabric gently, and allow the awning to dry before it remains closed for an extended period. Also, check the mounting, hinges, and operation. With proper maintenance, the awning will look better and you will prevent unnecessary wear and tear.
Standard 5-year warranty on custom awnings
Have your awnings custom-made, supplied, and installed by STERK, and you'll receive a standard 5-year warranty on the product and installation. We take precise measurements, provide clear advice on the options, and assemble with our own professional installers. This ensures that the awning fits perfectly on your facade and window.
Frequently asked questions about custom awnings
Why have awnings custom-made?
Awnings immediately catch the eye on a façade. Therefore, the width, projection, model, and fabric must be just right. With custom-made awnings, you prevent the hood from being too small, too wide, or visually out of balance. STERK measures at home and simultaneously considers the style of your house.
How does STERK measure awnings?
We examine the window opening, frames, facade, mounting points, and any obstacles such as downspouts or outdoor lights. Then we determine the correct size and design. So you don't have to guess with measurements; we ensure that the awning fits technically and aesthetically.
Can custom awnings also be electric?
Yes, custom work can often be combined with electric operation. This is useful for larger windows, higher mounting, or daily use. You can find more about the operation on the page about electric awnings.
What choices do I have for a custom-made marquee?
You choose, among other things, the model, fabric color, frame color, operation, dimensions, and material. STERK brings samples so you don't have to guess which color matches your facade from a screen. We offer practical advice without pushy sales talk.
How much does a custom-made awning cost?
The price depends on the dimensions, design, material, fabric, and operation. Because every facade is different, we prefer to provide a clear quote after measurements rather than a loose indicative price without context. This way, you know exactly what suits your home and budget.
Is aluminum suitable for custom-made awnings?
Yes, aluminum is a strong and low-maintenance choice for custom awnings. The material stays taut, can be finished well in various colors, and suits modern and classic facades. Also check out our aluminum awnings.
Can I choose the color of my awnings myself?
Yes, color is an important part of customization. Think of fabric color, frame color, and the combination with window frames. Those who want a calm, modern look often choose anthracite awnings.
Which model is right for my window?
That depends on the facade, the size of the window, and the desired look. A compact model can appear calm, while a folding model offers more movement and flexibility. For example, compare canopy awnings and folding arm awnings.
