Frame & Fixing Details
The Slimline 50 Cantilever features high-strength brackets engineered for direct stud fixing. On clad walls, brackets penetrate the cladding and secure firmly into timber studwork, transferring the load into the building’s structure. Each bracket is made from durable, powder-coated aluminium for strength and corrosion resistance. This fixing method ensures a stable, long-lasting connection without relying on fascia or rooflines — ideal for structural integrity on cladded walls.
Installation Details
How the Slimline 50 Cantilever is Installed
The Slimline 50 Cantilever is designed for maximum flexibility and structural reliability, whether you’re fixing to brickwork or cladded walls. Its clever mounting system allows for a clean architectural finish while ensuring lasting strength and performance.
Wall Bracket Fixing
The system uses robust, powder-coated aluminium brackets that can be mounted directly onto brick walls or fixed through external cladding into the timber studwork behind. This transfers the load directly into the building’s structure, providing a safe, stable installation for both new and existing homes.
Flexible Bracket Positioning
The brackets are independent of the awning frame, meaning they can be spaced anywhere along the wall to suit the position of studs or masonry. This makes the Slimline 50 Cantilever ideal for homes with timber-framed cladding, where traditional fixed-spacing systems won’t work.
Awning Panel Mounting
The awning panel is secured at two key points — at the wall brackets and at the front of the cantilever arms. This dual connection system locks the panel firmly in place, giving it strength and stability while maintaining a slimline appearance.
High-Quality Finishes
Every Slimline 50 Cantilever is built with a fully welded aluminium frame, paired with high-grade powder-coated brackets. This not only ensures long-term durability and corrosion resistance but also creates a seamless, professional appearance.
Designed to Follow Rooflines
The Slimline 50 Cantilever sits neatly under eaves or along rooflines without interfering with gutters or architectural features. It delivers reliable protection from sun and rain while preserving the look of your home.
With its thoughtful design and versatile fixing options, the Slimline 50 Cantilever is the perfect choice for clean, practical shade solutions on both brick and cladded homes.
Installing Your Slimline 50 with Cantilever Arms — Overview
The Slimline 50 with Cantilever Arms is designed specifically for cladded walls where you need to locate fixings into the studs behind. The brackets and arms are independent of the awning panel, so each one can be positioned to hit solid timber. Installation is straightforward in three steps.
Step 1 — Fix the wall brackets and arms to the wall
Fix each wall bracket through the cladding into the timber studs behind. Attach an arm to each bracket. The arms project outward from the wall and support the awning panel. Use a spirit level to make sure each arm is at the same height before moving on.
Step 2 — Lower the awning panel onto the arms
With the arms in place, lower the awning panel down from above so the front rail seats onto the tongue at the front of each arm. Fix the front rail to the arm tongues with Tek screws, then fix the rear rail flat against the wall.
Step 3 — Seal and finish
Apply a continuous bead of exterior-grade silicone between the rear rail and the wall, and between each arm bracket and the cladding. This seals out water and gives a clean finished result
