Shade The Sun - See The Stars - Automatically!

The Intelligent Automatic Weather Station

Markilux is the world's leader in retractable awning technology and innovation. Quality German Engineering, premier quality parts throughout, and a complete range of Unique, High-Tech Awning Fabrics all add up to the most elegant and durable awning products on the market today.
Sun &Wind Sensor Operating
But Markilux wants your retractable awning, canopy or exterior solar shade to perform for you in ways no other awning can, and provide value and convenience to your outdoor lifestyle. That's why your retractable awnings and exterior solar shades can be sensor-controlled and motorized to open and close automatically.

Our sun and wind sensors ensure your retractable awning or exterior solar shade provides the ideal shade solution:
  • When the sun is up, the sensor automatically extends your awning or solar screen. This provides you and your home furnishings sun protection while keeping your home cooler and energy costs down.
  • When the sun goes down, the sensor automatically retracts your awning or solar screen so you can enjoy an unobstructed view of the setting sun and night sky.
  • If you want to bask in the sun during the day, just override the sensor and operate the motorized awning by remote control from up to 200 feet away. You can go from 50+ SPF to 0 in seconds, and your Markilux shade solution is helping you enjoy your outdoor lifestyle every step of the way.
The Markilux sun and wind sensor is a particularly practical aid if you want to protect interior rooms from heating up too much while protecting fine furniture, carpets, floors, drapes and artwork from UV damage.

The weather sensor registers every change and ensures your retractable awning or exterior solar shade reacts accordingly. If the wind picks up or it starts to rain, you don't have to worry because your sensor is on the job.

Turn your Markilux into your "Weather Butler," and enjoy "set it and forget it" practicality.

Our knowledgeable sales staff will help you select the best shade solution for your decor and performance requirements.
