The outdoor living range

Precision-engineered folding arm awnings and awning pergolas, with a fabric range built to hold its colour through British summers.

Glazed garden room

Weinor Glass Rooms

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.

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.
