Markilux has once again managed to impress with a unique combination of purist design and ground-breaking technology. With the new underglass awning markilux 879 you are opting for a better quality of life, that will give you pleasure for many years to come.
Permanently high cover tension is achieved by way of two special gas-piston mechanisms in the front profile which operate independently of one another.
The markilux 879 is very quiet - the slides in the guide tracks have been optimised to reduce noise.
The blind is optionally available with tracfix - which lends an appealing closed appearance without an annoying gap between the cover and the guide tracks.
Technology
With a cassette height of only 130 mm in the round and 125 mm in the square version, the underglass awning is particularly compact. Two independently operating gas-pistons provide a permanently high fabric tension, this ensures a taut cover even in light wind. A tear resistant transportation belt ensures the fabric extends and retracts effortlessly and smoothly. Ball bearing mounted deflection rollers lower resistance for an extremely smooth operation.
Options
The optional tracfix system is a zip system used to hold the fabric into the lateral guide tracks. This eliminates any light-gap between the fabric and the tracks and gives the product a neat, closed look. Various lighting options are available. An LED line can be fitted to the guide tracks or to a cross beam called the cover support tube. LED spotlights can also be fitted to the cover support tube and to the cassette in the case of a square (779) cassette.
