Premium Retractable Awning
Refined Fit. Reliable Function.
The Premium model mirrors the performance of the Premium Pro awning while offering a semi-cassette design that balances protection with streamlined aesthetics. Featuring the same Italian-designed and engineered components as the full cassette awnings, the Premium awning delivers exceptional motorized performance with refined design.
When retracted, the front bar aligns neatly with the cassette opening for a smooth, finished look. Featuring the same Italian engineered arm and shoulder system used in our high end full cassette options, the Premium awning delivers exceptional motorized performance with refined design.
