Livorno - Side arm (drop arm) retractable stainless steel awning
The Livorno side arm awning is a dramatic, visually-arresting piece that is excellent for sun and rain protection. The side arm style – a steeply arched triangle that extends down from the mount point, rather than out – is designed to cover windows for the ultimate environmental control.
The Livorno's minimalist design pares the retractable awning down to the bare essentials: a taut fabric awning over a subtle stainless steel frame. The awning valance and headerbox are optional; adding these features gives a softer, slightly more traditional feel to the Livorno style.
The Livorno side arm awning is the only awning which has a stainless steel frame. Combined with its simplistic design, the Livorno is one of the best choices for ultra-modern architecture and building materials.
The naturally sharp angle of the Livorno combined with its smooth exterior and sturdy arms provide excellent runoff for rain and moisture, making the Livorno one of the few retractable awnings that is ideally engineered for heavy rain. The engineering behind Livorno keep it strong: it is rated at stress loads up to 5267 lb/ft2 (110 N/m2)
The Livorno is also one of the only awning styles from RetractableAwnings.com that is perfectly suited to trailers and RVs. The Livorno's compact and streamlined design is perfect for travel, with a maximum width of 13 feet and a total awning weight between 92 and 110 pounds.

Retractable Awnings - Valance Styles
There are 6 different valance styles for our retractable awnings. Tipo 2 and Tipo 6 are the most popular, but feel free to choose any Tipo you like. The valance on the Elegante, Ferrara, Grande and Mirage retractable awnings is 8 inches long and can be made a few inches longer if requested at no additional charge. The Sleek model does not have a valance as it is a cassette awning.
The awning valance will have solution dyed binding trim attached to the bottom of the valance which will accent the Tipo chosen. The binding trim is only about 1/4" wide on the front and back of the bottom of the awning valance. For color coordinating options see Trim Colors on the navigation menu.
If you choose a striped fabric or a fabric with designs on it, please note that the stripes or designs are not designed to align with the shape of the particular valance style chosen. In addition, when we sew our fabric valances and awning covers, we use a full piece of fabric in the middle and then sew from the middle to the outer edges. You ask why? We want our covers to look great, so we do this because that way on striped or patterned fabrics the stripe or pattern is the same on BOTH edges of the retractable awnings.
Also note, that the awning valance is easily removable from the front bar on all retractable awnings by simply removing the end cap and loosening a couple of screws. The awning valance should be removed prior to high winds - those greater than 35 mph.
There is no additional cost for the awning valance....

Retractable Awning Trim Colors
You have a choice of any 1 of 27 solution dyed acrylic braid binding (trim) colors. The binding is approximately ½" wide and is sewn with Tenara thread (lifetime warranty) onto the bottom of both sides of the valance. The binding (trim) takes the shape of the valance style selected. This trim is used on all valances on all retractable lateral arm awnings and retractable canopy awnings.

Important Note:
We have made an effort to provide solution dyed acrylic trim images that closely represent the solution dyed acrylic trim colors. However, due to all the possible variants -- light source, monitor quality, etc. -- we cannot guarantee that the fabric images accurately represent the true trim colors. Please take this into consideration if you are trying to coordinate colors of the awning fabric with that of the retractable awning fabric cover.
