Pivot Arm Awnings
Pivot arm awnings project outwards from the top of the opening at an angle, creating an arc that allows air to flow behind the fabric. Their design enables the window to be opened whilst the awning is extended, allowing for maximum movement without sacrificing protection.

"Recently renovated our whole house and contacted Amaru through word of mouth of colleagues…couldn’t be more satisfied with the end result! They came out and advised on products to suit our budget and went further to match our décor and chose a colour to match in perfectly!! It was ordered and installed in the timeframe they specified! I WILL be recommending this company to others…very professional…couldn’t be happier with our experience. Thank you!
Suitable for these areas
Pivot arm awnings can be used on most windows and other openings around the home. They are particularly suited to casement windows (which open outwards at a similar angle to the awning), as they allow plenty of space for the mechanism to function without hindering function. They’re also a great fit for bifolding and sliding doors or over doors that open into your home.
Colour Choices
To ensure that your awnings are the perfect complement for your home, Amaru offers an extensive range of colours across all of our fabric options. Go neutral or stand out from the crowd by choosing a brighter shade. Not sure what colour you want? Our décor consultants are here to help!
*Due to variations in monitors and browsers, colours may appear differently. The best way to ensure that your colour choices are correct is to view a sample by booking a free measure or visiting our showroom.

More Features & Options
There are a number of additional features and options that could be added to your awnings to enhance their use. Speak with your consultant to see what is possible with your choice of fabric, operation and application.
Excellent Airflow
The angle created between the wall and the awning allows for good airflow whilst keeping heat off the windows
Powder Coated Head Box
Most installations include a head box, which protects the awning from wear when not in use.
Child Safe
As awnings don’t use any cords or chains, they are 100% safe for use around children and pets.
Solar Powered
Select solar powered motorised awnings and get full control over the sun’s rays.
Sensors
If you have opted for motorised operation, add wind/sun/rain sensors to your awning so that it opens and closes automatically.
Interior Controls
When motorised, controls can be located inside the home for maximum convenience.
FAQs about Pivot Arm Awnings
All Amaru awnings are manufactured in Melbourne. Even the European designed pivot arm awning is fabricated in the Melbourne factory.
The arms, hood and front rails are available in two finishes – sleek anodised aluminium or powdercoated aluminium. Our décor consultants can help you to determine which finish will best complement your overall look.
