Glass-top awnings are installed above the glass surface and offer particularly effective protection against intense solar radiation. As the sun’s rays are blocked before they hit the glass, the area beneath the patio canopy heats up significantly less. This means the patio remains comfortable even on warm summer days. At the same time, modern glass-mounted awnings provide a high-quality look and can be seamlessly integrated into the patio canopy. Thanks to a range of colours, fabric designs and convenient control options, they can be customised to suit your individual requirements.

Above-glass awnings and under-glass awnings offer different advantages for providing sun protection for patio canopies. Above-glass awnings are particularly effective at providing protection against heat, as they intercept the sun’s rays before they reach the glass surface, thereby reducing heat build-up beneath the roofing. Which solution is more suitable – an above-glass or under-glass awning – depends on individual requirements and the specific installation situation.

The heroal HS conservatory awningThe heroal HS conservatory awning is an external, on-glass awning designed for glass roofs, patio canopies and conservatories. As an effective form of sun protection for conservatories, it reflects and absorbs the sun’s rays before they even hit the glass. This significantly reduces the build-up of heat beneath the roofing and creates a pleasantly constant climate. The sturdy zip-style guide, based on the zip fastener principle, in combination with an integrated counter-tension system, ensures high fabric tension and smooth, reliable operation. With a width of up to 5 m and a depth of 5.3 m, the conservatory awning provides shading for areas of up to 21 m². Depending on the fabric, it reduces up to 75% of solar radiation and up to 97% of UV radiation. As a made-to-measure glass-mounted awning, the heroal HS blends harmoniously into aluminium patio roofs and conservatories. The colour of the guide rails and fabric can be perfectly matched to the heroal VS Z vertical awning – for a cohesive, architectural overall look. Product details: heroal HS > Patio canopies >

The fully integrated installation, featuring a cubic 90° cassette design, creates a clean, modern look and blends seamlessly into your patio canopy. The translucent sun protection fabric reflects up to 75% of solar radiation and filters out up to 97% of UV radiation. This creates a pleasant climate under the patio roof – even on hot summer’s days. Thanks to innovative zip technology, the fabric is held securely in the guide rail and remains stretched even in strong winds. With widths of up to 5 m and heights of up to 6 m, large areas can be shaded without the need for an additional centre guide. The heroal VS Z vertical awning thus offers reliable protection from the sun, prying eyes and the elements – for greater comfort and year-round use of your patio.

Modern sun protection for patio canopies impresses not only with its reliable protection against heat and glare, but also with its ease of use. Both the heroal HS over-glass awning and the heroal VS Z vertical awning can be controlled electrically and easily adapted to your individual requirements. They can be conveniently operated using a remote control, wall switch or smartphone. Furthermore, the sun protection systems can be integrated into standard smart home solutions. This allows you to control your shading conveniently from home or whilst on the move, and adjust the sun protection to suit the current weather conditions at any time.Automatic control systems can be used to provide even greater comfort.

This ensures that the terrace remains at a comfortable temperature even on hot days, whilst making optimum use of the shading. At the same time, the systems can be protected in the event of adverse weather conditions.

Both glass-top awnings and vertical awnings are suitable for patio canopies. A glass-mounted awning is installed above the glass roof and provides particularly effective protection against heat, as it reduces solar radiation before it even hits the glass. Vertical awnings are installed on the sides of the patio canopy and offer additional protection against glare, prying eyes, wind and the sun. The best solution depends on your individual requirements and the desired level of sun protection.
Both systems offer advantages. Above-glass awnings are considered particularly effective at providing heat protection, as they reflect and absorb the sun’s rays before they reach the glass roof. This significantly reduces the amount of heat build-up in the covered area. Below-glass awnings, on the other hand, offer better protection against the elements, as they are installed beneath the glazing. Those who prioritise maximum heat protection often opt for an above-glass awning.
Awnings fitted to glass roofs are among the most effective sun protection solutions for patio canopies and conservatories. As solar radiation is blocked before it reaches the glass roof, the build-up of heat beneath the roofing can be significantly reduced. This means that the patio remains comfortable even on sunny days.
Yes. A vertical awning not only provides protection from the low sun, wind and glare, but can also serve as a privacy screen, depending on the fabric chosen. At the same time, it often allows you to see out, whilst reducing unwanted views in from outside. Furthermore, the fabric filters out a large proportion of UV radiation.
Yes, the combination of a glass-mounted awning and a vertical awning offers particularly comprehensive sun protection. Whilst the glass-mounted awning reduces the amount of solar radiation hitting the glass roof, the vertical awning protects against sunlight coming in from the side, glare and prying eyes. Furthermore, both systems can be coordinated in terms of both appearance and colour.
Yes. Both the heroal HS glass-top awning and the heroal VS Z vertical awning can be installed on existing patio canopies.
