Usage and Maintenance Manual Brochure

Gennius can be manufactured in a wide range of sizes, from widths as little as 3m and up to 13.5m. The standard projection can be up to 7m, but larger projections are available provided the awning is top fixed.

Gutter

The Gutter option collects rainwater and drains it away using the post profile as the downpipe. 

Hood Beam Kit

The Hood Beam option covers the retracted section with, preferably, a waterproof fabric that is stretched from a wall attachment to the beam. This provides protection for the crossbars and fabric, from rain and debris, when not in use.

Side Infill Kit

A Side Infill option is available for one or both sides. This enables the attachment of a vertical awning such as the Screeny or Vertiscreen screen, to provide extra shade and comfort.
