Facade awning FM 150 / FMc

The lively multi-tasker with a licence to create

The facade awning is our answer for wherever straight, curved or multiple curved guides are used in winter gardens, glazed lobbies or exhibition spaces. Its colour and shape can be adapted to suit any style of architecture – and it offers a little something extra: you can use it to create a unique combination of roof and facade covering for a completely new kind of facade design.

The high-quality facade awning even provides optimum shading for large areas of glazed facades and roofing – plus, its robust construction and long service life never fail to impress. No matter whether the surface is vertical, sloped or horizontal, the facade awning adapts to any situation.

A flexible and fancy shading system

Our facade awning was developed to meet the tough requirements of a facade. Its impressive ability to adapt guarantees a huge scope for design possibilities on a whole variety of differently shaped large facades. The canopy fabric is wound in and out on a round or angular drop profile. Its tried and tested system keeps the fabric constantly taut over the entire overhang area.

All of the cords make virtually no noise when they move and are very well protected in the drop profile. The moving and fixed fabric guide tubes ensure greater stability during high winds. In addition to this, the facade awning is available with a canopy and a built-in tubular motor, as standard. The guide, drop profile and box are 100% resistant aluminium – available powder-coated, colour or colourless anodised. The elegant and sturdy guides are mounted on brackets, which can in turn be mounted on different substrates. This means the facade awning can also be used as a pergola.

Variations

Without counter drive

Our FM 150 without a counterdrive system is very well suited for the vertical shading of large windows. It can shade both vertical and sloped surfaces without the need for a counterdrive system – to do so, it must be tilted to at least 45°. In this design, up to six systems can be linked together. The drop profile is round and travels up and down the guide. Various different models can be realised with the FM 150. The system is suitable for front-mounted installations and comes with a choice of different types of canopies and the option of an integrated box.

With counterdrive

The FMc with counter drive has a patented counterdrive system. This power pack can handle every slope and every curve. With its smooth power, the counterdrive system built into the drop profile, ensures the fabric is optimally tensioned across any slope or horizontal surface. The FMc can be installed completely horizontally, for example as shading for a winter garden. Plus, with the FMc, we can even realise designs with two arches and in vertical, opposing directions. The system is suitable for front-mounted installations and comes with a choice of different types of canopies and the option of an integrated box.

Front-mounted installation

In this installation scenario, the guides are mounted against the wall or to the side on the reveal. The front-mounted installation can be fitted with one of the canopies from our wide selection to best protect the fabric from the rain and dirt. It is particularly suitable for retrofitting or renovation projects.
