Hi folks
Could anyone please tell me if they have had any experience with the pyramid constantine porch awning. We are thinking of buying this but thought it would be nice to get your opinion before doing so!
Many thanks in advance for any feedback on this.

Thank you!

They have came out of administration now and are running as normal again but changed name to pyramid outdoors (i think)
You should still have warranty as its with the retailer not the company

Granted the warranty is with the retailer, but if you damage a pole a replacement could be difficult. If the new company uses a different factory, the old & new poles may not be compatible.

Thank you for your replies ~ much appreciated!

I have managed to find the pyramid constantine porch awning for £250.00 online at www.campingandleisure.co.uk
With storm straps £264.00
I love the Dorema porch but it is an extra £109.00! So i think i may have to take my chances with the Pyramid.

Unless someone comes up with a better one!

Big thanks

Lisa

Camping and Leisure are our local Camping and General Store. We purchased a Pyramid Awning from them 4 years ago. It is well made and they do stock spares in store.

If for some unforseen reason we needed a new awning we would purchase another Pyramid good value for money, you can choose between steel or alloy poles repair kits available also Bought one with our awning but so far touch wood not had to use it.

The question is Michael ~ how did you do it?

Thank you!

I have just realised why i couldn't post the linkl Michael. It was because i had posted the question on my phone not my laptop where it would highlight website!

Matron ~ We had a pyramid full awning a few years back and had no problems with it. I would even go as far as to say it was as good as a Bradcot full awning we had after that.

Cockney ~ I will check out the gateway annexe. Thank you!
