Unosider Gate Shade │ Freestanding awning


A collaboration between Unosider and the internationally renowned designer Nicolas Thomkins has resulted in the ultra-modern Gate Shade folding arm awning. The slim yet fashionable design of the frame is equipped with two electrically extendable sun sails. The awnings can be conveniently controlled by remote control. When extended, the awning provides shade over an area of approx. 30 square metres. If desired, a music system and/or LED strips can be integrated into the Gate Shade awning. 
With the Gate Shade, Nicolas Thomkins has created a free-standing awning with an aesthetically perfect effect. Whether closed or extended, every detail is perfectly coordinated. All components have been perfectly integrated into the construction frame or into the two extendable sun canopies, resulting in a harmonious overall architecture. On request, the colour design of the canopy can be realised individually.

Even when closed, Gate Shade is an elegant and unusual design object. Why not equip your awning with LED lighting and benefit from this versatile awning even in the evening hours.

The rotatable, ultra-modern main control system is recessed into one of the load-bearing walls and provides a convenient way to control the shading system.

The awning includes an intelligent wind sensor as standard, which activates the automatic retraction of the membrane in the event of strong winds and thus safely accommodates the awning in the protective cassette.


Private living space:

Whether as a shady extension to the terrace, freestanding as an island in the garden or as an air-conditioned rest area next to the pool. The innovative and shapely awning fits into almost any ensemble. With optionally integrable entertainment electronics such as LED, lighting or music system, Gate Shade is the ideal solution for a good time outdoors, even in the darker evening hours.

Public places:

Gate Shade is also aesthetically and beneficially placed in public areas. The awning is ideally suited as a reliable shade provider for walkways, beach promenades and all outdoor areas of restaurants and hotels. Thanks to the integrated wind sensor, the automatic retraction system reacts reliably to increased wind conditions and thus protects the membrane from potential damage.



Construction and structure

 

The load-bearing construction is made of hot-dip galvanised steel and the stainless steel cladding is made of galvanised, bent aluminium, which has been bent and cut into shape by laser. This processing technique ensures a particularly clean and gap-free edge finish. The lacquer finish consists of a polyester base powder-coated with epoxy resin and can be ordered in various modern color variants.


LED illumination

 

Optionally, LED lighting elements can be integrated on the left and right of the pillars and ceiling of the arch, which create an atmospheric ambience with their indirect illumination. With this small but effective extra, you can enjoy a cosy extended get-together under the open sky in the private sphere and welcome your guests outside the bright daytime in the commercial sphere.
