Understanding the figures
How the commercial awning calculator works
Measure the usable area
Width multiplied by projection gives the approximate covered footprint. Your survey will confirm the safe, practical awning size.
Estimate additional covers
The tool applies a different seating density for cafés, restaurants and high-table bar layouts.
Model potential turnover
Estimated covers are combined with average spend, table turns and likely trading days to create monthly and annual illustrations.
Planning note: results are illustrations, not forecasts or guarantees. Footfall, opening hours, weather, layout, licences and customer demand will affect actual performance.
What affects commercial awning cost?
Size and number of units
Wider spans, deeper projections and linked units require different structures and fixing plans.
Cassette and operation
Open, semi-cassette and full-cassette systems differ, as do motor, control and sensor choices.
Branding and fabric
Custom RAL finishes, printed valances and premium fabric choices shape the finished specification.
Site and installation
Access, fixing surfaces, electrical work, bespoke brackets and working at height can affect installation.
For an accurate proposal, Aura surveys the fixing surface, access, dimensions and intended use. Explore our commercial awning range or review answers in the Commercial FAQ Centre.
