Pergolas, Awnings & Outdoor Living: Your Questions Answered
Introduction Outdoor living is one of the fastest growing areas in home improvement across the UK. More homeowners are looking to extend their living spaces outdoors, blending style, comfort and energy efficiency. At Central Awnings, we manufacture in the UK using trusted Llaza components, giving dealers and homeowners the perfect balance of European innovation and local craftsmanship.
To help you understand more about our products and services, here’s a detailed FAQ.
FAQ 1: What makes Central Awnings different from other suppliers?
Central Awnings is more than just a supplier. We manufacture in the UK, which means faster lead times, reliable quality control, and the ability to offer custom-made pergolas, roofs and enclosures. We also provide assisted fits for dealers and trade partners who want extra on-site support.
Our partnership with Llaza, a leading European component brand, ensures every system we produce is backed by years of technical expertise and innovation.
FAQ 2: Who are Llaza, and why does it matter?
Llaza are one of Europe’s strongest brands in shading components, with a reputation for durability, safety and technical excellence. By combining Llaza’s proven systems with our UK-based manufacturing, Central Awnings delivers products that stand up to the demands of the British climate while offering stylish, contemporary design.
FAQ 3: Can Central Awnings products be customised?
Yes. Every pergola, awning or enclosure we produce is fully customised. Whether your customer needs a bespoke size, integrated lighting, or a specific finish, we adapt each project to suit. This flexibility makes it easier for dealers to offer unique solutions and win more business.
FAQ 4: How weather resistant are your products?
The UK climate can be unpredictable — heavy rain one week, scorching sunshine the next. That’s why all of our products are designed and tested for full resistance against wind, rain and UV exposure. With Llaza components at the core, durability comes built in.
FAQ 5: Do you support dealers with installation?
Yes. We understand that not every project is straightforward. That’s why Central Awnings offers an assisted fit service — our experienced team can support your installers on-site, giving you confidence and helping deliver a smooth customer experience.
FAQ 6: Are pergolas and awnings energy efficient?
Absolutely. Shading solutions can significantly reduce indoor overheating by blocking solar gain through windows and glass doors. This means homeowners can enjoy cooler interiors in summer without relying solely on air conditioning, helping save energy and improve comfort.
FAQ 7: What kind of designs do you offer?
We believe outdoor living should be stylish as well as practical. Our design-led products transform gardens, balconies and terraces into comfortable living spaces. From minimalist pergolas with clean lines to more robust enclosures, our range is designed to fit both modern and traditional properties.
FAQ 8: Do you work only with trade partners?
Central Awnings primarily supports dealers, installers and trade professionals across the UK. However, if you’re a homeowner looking for a solution, we can connect you with one of our trusted partners.
FAQ 9: What areas do you cover?
As a UK-based manufacturer, we supply trade customers nationwide. Whether you’re in London, Birmingham, Manchester, or the South West, our logistics and support services ensure smooth delivery and installation.
