The outdoor living range
Shade, shelter, glazing and outdoor kitchens
Seven brands, chosen because they last. Supplied and installed across the UK — and available to view before you commit.

Louvred roof pergolas
Renson Louvred Roofs
Adjustable aluminium blades · integrated lighting & heating
Rotate the blades for shade, ventilation or full shelter. The louvred roof that turns a terrace into a room you can use in any weather.
Retractable awnings
Markilux Awnings & Pergolas
Folding arm & cassette · electric operation · sunsilk fabrics
Precision-engineered folding arm awnings and awning pergolas, with a fabric range built to hold its colour through British summers.
Aluminium pergolas
Weinor Awnings & Pergolas
Aluminium frame · retractable fabric or louvred roof
Aluminium pergolas and awnings built for permanence. Add side glazing, screens or heating.

Glazed garden room
Weinor Glass Rooms
Glass roof · sliding side glazing · Terrazza Pure
A glazed room without the build. Toughened glass roof and sliding glass sides, so the terrace keeps its view and gains a season or two.

A fully modular kitchen designed around your exact layout — worktops, grills and fridges specified island by island.
Compact outdoor kitchen
OVO Outdoor Kitchens
Three sizes · from £1,395 · compact footprint
Compact, sleek and built for everyday grilling. Three sizes to choose from, so it works in a courtyard as easily as on a terrace.

customer reviews
Outdoor living reviews, thirty five years on.
Excellent service throughout: from sales and site survey through to the installation, SWR were efficient and polite.
The end result is delivered on time, exactly what we wanted, and looks really good.
Nice to have a great experience with a local business.
SWR were very efficient throughout the process of ordering to the fitting of our awning. We were given lots of helpful information and advise at our local showroom and from the surveyor who measured op. We are very pleased with the end result.
Great service from start to finish. Great product. Delighted with the team in the show room and the updates in between ordering and delivery. Fitting team arrived when the said. Friendly and efficient professionals fitted garage doors and awnings.
Clear information, prompt delivery, and a product that turned up exactly as described. Ordered Saturday, delivered Tuesday — it fitted first time.
The drawing arrived the next morning. Their installer was on site within a fortnight. My clients have already referred me on to three of their neighbours.
Genuinely refreshing to deal with a UK manufacturer who picks up the phone. The quote was detailed, the drawing was accurate, and the price held.
The wider range
There is more outside than shade and a kitchen.
External blinds, screens, garage doors, glass houses, windows, garden features and outdoor storage all sit alongside the seven brands above — supplied and installed by the same team, from the same showroom.
