From balconies to large patios, choosing the right awning can make outdoor spaces more comfortable while offering protection from Lanzarote’s sunshine.
A terrace is often one of the most-used parts of a home in Lanzarote, particularly during the warmer months. Yet without adequate shade, even the most inviting outdoor space can become difficult to enjoy during the hottest parts of the day.
Modern awnings provide a flexible solution, allowing homeowners to create shade exactly where and when it is needed.
Retractable arm awnings remain one of the most popular choices, extending over patios and seating areas before folding neatly away when full sunshine is preferred. Available with manual operation or motorised controls, they offer a straightforward way to adapt outdoor spaces throughout the day.
Different styles suit different properties. Drop arm awnings are particularly effective for balconies, pergolas and windows, providing shade while maintaining privacy. Box awnings protect the fabric and operating mechanism within a compact casing, while vertical windbreak awnings help shelter outdoor areas from both sunshine and breezes, with optional transparent PVC windows preserving outside views.
Rather than a one-size-fits-all approach, many homeowners are choosing made-to-measure installations designed around the size and orientation of their property.
For more than two decades, Sol Y Sombra has supplied and installed exterior awnings across Lanzarote. Every installation is measured individually, with products manufactured in Spain using quality materials from trusted suppliers.
The family business manages the entire process, from the initial survey through to professional installation, helping customers select the most suitable awning for their home or business.
Whether creating shade for a morning coffee on the balcony or extending the usable space of a large terrace, a well-designed awning can make a noticeable difference to everyday outdoor living.
