Pull Straps & Cranks

Awning pull straps and cranks are essential elements in the operation of retractable awnings.

Awning Pull Straps:

Pull straps are typically made of durable materials like nylon, polyester, or polypropylene to withstand various weather conditions and frequent usage. They generally measure from about 5 feet to 10 feet in length, suitable for various awning sizes. The strap features a looped handle on one end for a firm and comfortable grip.

The purpose of the pull strap is to provide the user with the ability to easily extend or retract the awning without the need for ladders or other aid tools. The strap is attached to the awning in a manner that makes pulling it out or drawing it back a simple and hassle-free task.

Awning Cranks:

The crank for an awning is a mechanical device designed with a handle on one end and a gear system on the other. The gear is designed to fit onto the roller tube of the awning, and when the handle is turned, it causes the gear to revolve and the awning to extend or retract.

Awning cranks can be manual or motorized. Manual cranks are more common and require the user to physically turn the handle. Motorized cranks, on the other hand, are operated via an electric motor, and the user can operate them with a remote control or a switch.
