\n\nHow to choose awnings for small terraces so they don't take up too much space? Have you been wanting to install a structure for a while but are afraid of running out of space? When you have a terrace, you have an ideal space to enjoy at any time, especially if it's a certain size. Terrace awnings are essential for making the most of that space in your home year-round.<\/span>\n

What type of awnings can we put on a small terrace?<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\nThe truth is that there are quite a few existing proposals today that will allow us to enjoy this space, even if it's small, with maximum comfort.<\/span>\n

1. Pergola with awning<\/span><\/h3>\nThe Markilux compact awning pergola is perfect for your slightly smaller garden or terrace. It combines the filigree shape of a classic pergola with modern product design and intelligent technology. The compact awning system with filigree columns is compact and space-saving, and features side guide rails that keep the fabric taut at all times, making it ideal for smaller terraces.<\/span>\n\nThe awning is very strong and stable, comfortable, and withstands the elements perfectly during the harshest days of the year. The compact awning system is wonderful, as the canvas is well protected by the full angled cassette and side guides to keep the canvas taut. It offers optimal shade that you can enjoy during the summer and protects you from low temperatures on cooler days. We added LED light accessories to the cassette or the LED line on the cassette, rails, or guides to ensure hours of worry-free outdoor time.<\/span>\n\nThe compact pergola invites you to relax and unwind.<\/span><\/strong>\nAttractive and functional sun protection. Anywhere. For everyone.<\/span><\/strong>\n\n\"\"<\/picture>\n

2. Compact cassette awning for small terraces<\/span><\/h3>\nThe Markilux pergola compact awning system has a square full-cassette \u2013 the slim columns are square or round. The front pillars of the awning can be fixed to your terrace foundation or the floor of your balcony. Alternatively, a version with weight boxes also offers reliable support. This space-saving pergola awning for small terraces can be optionally complemented with the markilux shade plus: an additional awning on the front profile, which can be manually extended vertically in no time. This integrated vertical sun and privacy screen protects your favorite outdoor space from the low sun and blocks prying eyes.<\/span>\n

3. Parasol awnings<\/span><\/h3>\nAwning or parasol? This is often the question when it comes to protecting your favorite corner of the garden from excessive sun. The new markilux 'planet' parasol awning offers both in one product: the broad shade of an awning with the lightweight look of a parasol. Depending on the model, it can be rotated in virtually any direction. 'Planet' showcases a modern, free-form style. An awning that, for a change, isn't screwed to the wall but floats in the air on a bracket on a slightly sloping column.<\/span>\n\n\"\"<\/picture>\n

4. Awnings with triangular canvas<\/span><\/h3>\nTriangular awnings are sail-style awnings. They are fully adaptable solutions for any corner of your terrace or garden. They are tension structures, and their canvas provides optimal shade for the summer. The fabric provides good UV protection and repels water, so you don't have to worry about it getting damaged when it rains or having to run to the garden to take down the awning. Sail awnings are very practical to set up, simple, and lightweight. They adapt perfectly to small spaces in your home or even a bar terrace, allowing you to enjoy the space more freely without columns or barriers in the way. You can choose the type of canvas that best suits your interior design and d\u00e9cor.<\/span>\n\n\"\"<\/picture>\n\n\"\"<\/picture>\n

5. MX3 Awning<\/span><\/h3>\nThe Markilux MX3 awning is ideal for the garden or small terraces. This high-quality awning is fully customizable and custom-made, so it adapts to any terrace, no matter how small or large. So, if your terrace is small but you want a high-end awning, you can choose the MX3 because it offers perfect technical qualities and excellent workmanship. It consists of a frame and a box where everything is stored and gathered without taking up space. It also has a top-quality aesthetic design that gives the awning an innate elegance. Its fabrics are very resistant and durable, but thanks to the aluminum box, the life of your awning will be much longer. It comes in many colors: from red and yellow, which provides pure energy, to green and blue, to white and sand tones that are becoming increasingly popular in homes.<\/span>\n\n\"\"<\/picture>\n\n<\/div>\n
