Aluminium vs. Steel Adjustable Louvre Awnings: Which is Right for You?

Aluminium Adjustable Louvres (Recommended)

  • 100% Rust & Corrosion Proof: Aluminium naturally resists moisture and weather, making it the longest-lasting solution.
  • Smooth & Easy Operation: Lightweight louvre blades put minimal stress on internal gears, shafts, and control mechanisms, ensuring smooth hand-crank or motorized operation for years.
  • Low Lifetime Cost: While the initial outlay is slightly higher, you avoid recurring repainting, rust treatments, and premature replacement costs.


Steel Adjustable Louvres

Lower Initial Price: Provides a budget-conscious starting price point.

Heavy-Duty Feel: Strong structural integrity, though the added weight places more strain on opening and closing mechanisms.

Maintenance Requirement: Even with powder coating or galvanizing, steel can rust at cut edges, joints, or scratch points over time—especially under rain and moisture exposure.
