We fitted five new motorised traditional Victorian awnings to Sanjeev Jewellers in Southall last week. I think you’ll agree that this charming building has been complimented by the style and colour of the awnings fitted. Traditional Victorian awnings are still my favourite type of awning and we at Radiant have improved their design over time in order to cope with the British weather. For example, we have replaced some of the boxing with a more resistant aluminium casing at the top and back as in the old timber version the water or snow would rest on the wood and slowly eat into it. We still use hardwood cheeks and a timber front lath and the arms are bent to suit the exact requirements of the building.
