At Central Awnings, we recommend the Modulebox 400 where standard awnings may fall short on span or presence, but a full structural pergola isn’t required.

Flexible external shading for larger spaces

The Modulebox 400 is a high-performance external awning system designed for projects where larger widths, clean design and reliable operation are essential.

Suitable for both residential and commercial settings, it delivers effective solar protection while maintaining a compact, architectural appearance — making it ideal for wider patios, terraces and glazed elevations.

Why choose the
Storbox 400?

The Modulebox 400 has been developed as a monobloc awning system, allowing it to achieve larger dimensions while maintaining strength, stability and smooth operation.

A key advantage of the Modulebox 400 is its configurability. It can be supplied as:

  • A full cassette awning, fully enclosing fabric and arms when retracted
  • A semi-cassette awning, offering partial protection with a lighter appearance
  • A semi-open awning, where architectural conditions allow

Designed to reduce overheating and improve comfort

External shading works best when it stops heat before it reaches the glass — and the Modulebox 400 is designed to do exactly that. By blocking direct sunlight externally, it helps to:

  • Reduce internal temperatures during warmer weather
  • Limit glare on large glazed areas
  • Improve comfort in south- and west-facing spaces
  • Protect furniture, flooring and finishes from UV exposure

Design, build quality and finish

The Modulebox 400 is manufactured using robust aluminium components and designed for long-term outdoor use. Design features include:

  • Strong, refined cassette profiles
  • Smooth arm operation for consistent extension and retraction
  • High-quality finishes to suit modern architecture
  • Optional integrated LED lighting, allowing outdoor spaces to be used into the evening

The overall result is an awning that looks understated while delivering dependable performance.

Operation, control and automation

The Modulebox 400 is available with motorised operation, with options for automation and remote control.

The awning to be adjusted easily as sun position changes throughout the day, improving comfort without constant manual intervention.
