Operation

The simplicity of the arm operation has been one of the main reason the Auto-matic arm awning has been popular for so many decades.
The automatic locking mechanism on the arm allows the arm to lock onto the guide rail at any point maintaining the arm at the desired height.
When the blind is to be raised, the bend at the top of the guide rail allows for the arm to neatly fold up against the wall and the fabric to stow away under the protective pelmet hood.
