Somfy® motorization allows you to enjoy your retractable awning at the touch of a button. Somfy®'s wide range of motors and controls feature Radio Technology Somfy® (RTS) which provide awning users with simple and innovative operating functions that can be adapted to your lifestyle. Motors come equipped with a plug-in power cable and need a 120v connection. Conveniently, the motor's body is placed inside the roller tube, so no extra space is required.

The removable front valance is an additional panel attached by industrial strength Velcro to the existing awning valance. It is an excellent solution for extra sun protection or privacy at the front of your awning. Choice of matching awning fabric or screen. The removable front valance can be ordered in advance together with the awning or at a later time.
Another alternative for additional shade and privacy at the front of the awning is the retractable front valance. The retractable front valance is an adjustable vertical panel which you can roll up and down as needed. It is gear operated and retracts into a cassette front bar. Choice of matching awning fabric or screen.
The side curtain is an extra panel which hangs on the side of the awning. It is attached to the awning by two hooks. The side curtain comes handy for northern or southern exposure. It is also good for privacy. The side curtain can be made from matching awning fabric or screen. It is recommended to have your awning installed first, adjust it to a desired slope and then order the side curtain.
