The V642 - Tumba is a pergola and porch awning that can be used both on a patio canopy and on poles as a pergola. The posts and side guides have the same shape and dimensions, creating unity of design, and therefore appearance. The visual impact of connecting parts is minimized. These design details helped make the V642 - Tumba the proud winner of the 2020 Red Dot Design Award.
The pergola awning features a patented locking mechanism that ensures that the front frame is locked in place. The revolutionary four-way variable tension system ensures smooth movement of the fabric. When fully opened, tension is achieved by automatically locking the front frame and applying force to the fabric with the same motor that moves the system. The result: a fabric that not only looks perfect, but also performs at its best.
The sun-protective, water-repellent and weather-resistant, 100% high-tech polyester plain fabric with zipper guide of the V642 - Tumba offers efficient protection from both sun and rain. Of course, water management has also been considered. No water pockets can form in the fabric, even with a slight slope of the structure. In addition, the side guides offer superior drainage management, with water draining through the poles even when the structure is not fully open. From a roof pitch of eight degrees, the drainage of rainwater is guaranteed up to as much as 50 liters per square meter per hour. Additional advantage: the possibility of limiting the roof pitch to eight degrees makes it possible to create a generous headroom at any extension of the V642 - Tumba.
The veranda and pergola awning V642 - Tumba is installed using a fully continuous wall profile to ensure a watertight seal between the cassette and the wall. In addition, the wall profile offers more installation options because it can be attached to the wall in different places. The cassette has a very neat design for a structure that can cover up to 25 square meters. If desired, a center bar with a dimmable light source can be installed. At the maximum dimensions of 5000 millimeters wide and 5000 millimeters drop, the Tumba has been tested up to wind resistance class 3.
