Restaurant awnings have had to adapt to the changing demands of well travelled diners who have travelled abroad and experienced the pleasures of eating and drinking outdoors and want to enjoy this experience when they visit their favourite eating place at home. Restaurant awnings by Deans have been especially chosen to cater for this al fresco dining style which is enhanced by the installation of awnings and canopies. Our numerous restaurant awnings systems vary from smart simple canopies, highlighting an entrance, across the whole range up to sophisticated remotely controlled systems which operate via solid state environmental stimuli. Branding, using our exclusive RAGS ® graphics process, will enhance the outward appearance or the awning giving a unique exclusivity to your venue.

Restaurant awnings on terraces and outside dining areas for cafes and bars have become essential to maximise the through traffic of customers, especially in the summer months. However, our development of all weather restaurant awnings has extended the profitable life of outside dining areas significantly. Our Pratic all weather awnings systems can be wall mounted or free standing and will withstand rain and wind speeds of up to Beaufort scale force 8. All weather restaurant awnings can be further enhanced by the addition of retractable transparent screens providing an even more pleasant dining experience.

Other accessories include cafe barriers for use as light wind breaks which also provide an excellent further opportunity for branding using the aforementioned RAGS® process. These cafe barriers are easily moved into different positions so that changing wind direction can be accommodated.

Further opportunities for enhancing outside dining areas include optional heating and lighting which can be incorporated into the restaurant awnings or be affixed to the building or be free standing to give the optimum flexible benefit . The heaters we recommend are directional infra red heaters which use up to 30% less energy than gas or quartz radiating heaters.
