What are the Key Features?
Learning about the key design, features and benefits of Betta 7000 Awning will help you decide if this is the right product for your application.
Similar to other Awnings, they have a fabric skin that rolls up onto an aluminium tube when the Awning is retracted. The other end of the fabric is securely attached to a heavy-duty bottom rail that provides stability to the fabric.
The key difference between Betta 7000 Awnings and other types of Awnings is that stainless steel wires are located on both sides of the fabric. The wire guides are discreetly attached to the sides of the bottom rail and secured to an anchoring point on the wall, posts or floor.
Benefits
While other Awning types have their advantages, Wire Guide Awnings offer unique benefits that set them apart. One significant advantage is the reduced level of maintenance required.
The simple and efficient wire guide system eliminates the need for side channels. This means that there are fewer places for dirt and debris to collect over time, making maintenance a breeze.
The wire guides provide precise light control, you can stop your Awning at any position along the wire guides and the bottom rail will be held in place.
The absence of side channels also means that Betta 7000 Awnings offer a more open and unobstructed view when the blinds are fully raised.
Operation
Betta 7000 Awnings can be effortlessly raised or lowered, allowing you to quickly adapt to changing weather conditions or adjust the amount of light entering your space.
Crank operation makes it simple to open and close the Awnings. Alternatively, they can be fitted with motorisation for the most convenience.
Applications
Betta 7000 Awnings are a fantastic solution in spaces where structural posts are not available.
This makes them well-suited for use on patios and balconies. The slim wires allow you to install them side by side without obstructing your view.
Optional Extras
Weather Box and Cassette
To keep your fabric and motors protected from the elements, Betta 7000 Awnings can be fitted with a Weather Box or a Semi Cassette.
Lockdown Latches
Lockdown latches can also be added to Betta 7000 Awnings. These help secure your Awnings at the bottom to keep them fixed in place when fully extended.
Valance
A straight valance is a piece of fabric that is fitted to the bottom of the Awning bottom rail. This can make for a more appealing and stylish finish.

Limitations to Consider?
Although the Betta 7000 Awnings come with distinct benefits, it is important to be aware of the drawbacks associated with its wire guide design. One disadvantage is that wire guides offer comparatively less protection against insects when compared to Zipscreen™ or Ziptrak® products.
Similar to other Awnings that don’t have side channels, there are light gaps present around the sides. Additionally, it is worth considering that there might be more fabric movement during windy conditions compared to Zipscreen™ or Ziptrak® systems.
What Maintenance is Required?
Ensuring proper maintenance of your products is crucial for their long-lasting appearance and optimal performance. The good news is that maintenance is a quick and straightforward procedure that can be completed within a few minutes.
It is recommended to regularly clean your products to eliminate dirt and dust from their surfaces. Simply utilize a gentle brush to remove any accumulated dirt and dust particles. Once the larger particles have been cleared, you can employ a solution of soapy water to eliminate any remaining contaminants.
Conclude the maintenance process by thoroughly rinsing the Awning with a hose, ensuring that all cleaning products are completely removed. It is essential to allow the blind to dry completely before rolling it up.
The Bottom Line
Betta 7000 Awnings provide a range of benefits that make them a desirable choice for enhancing outdoor spaces. With their effective weather protection, increased privacy, durability, ease of operation, and versatile design, Betta 7000 Awnings provide a practical and stylish solution for transforming your outdoor areas.
When compared to Side Channel Awnings, they offer reduced maintenance and a more unobstructed view when fully raised. So, whether you want to create an intimate and cozy space or expand your living area to the outdoors, Wire Guide Awnings are an excellent investment that will elevate the comfort and aesthetics of your outdoor environment.
