Restaurant terrace protected from the weather

markilux furnishes event location in Mannheim with an awning system

The restaurant and café "bootshaus" in Mannheim has had its outside terrace covered with a large awning, the "pergola stretch" from markilux. This means the location now also offers an outdoor dining area protected from the vagaries of the weather.

The "bootshaus" restaurant is situated next to the Luisenpark, very close to Mannheim's television tower, looking over the river Neckar. The restaurant also serves as a location which organises events for up to 500 people. The company had its 160 square metre restaurant terrace covered with an awning system from manufacturer markilux so as to be able to offer this kind of capacity whatever the weather.

Now, the terrace is much more versatile
"After a few months of preliminary planning, last autumn, we were commissioned to furnish the outside terrace with our 'pergola stretch' model. When it came to the cover, the customer chose a rainproof fabric so as to be able to make the space available in as versatile a manner as possible," explains Jan Kattenbeck, "team : project" sales manager at markilux. The system consists of four awning units adjoined to one another with a total width of over 23 metres and an extension of seven metres. The terrace can also be closed at the sides with two vertical blinds featuring panoramic windows. Combined with "format triangle" side sections, which meet the awning roof at its edge, the system provides good protection from both wind and rain. LED lighting systems also ensure an attractive lighting atmosphere in the evening says Jan Kattenbeck. Installation by a local qualified markilux specialist dealer, supported by "team : service" from markilux, took just over a week. All the necessary components were lifted in by crane. "Thanks to our pergola canopy, you can now use the terrace virtually all year round. And that of course pleases the restaurateur," says Jan Kattenbeck. The restaurant had after all been closed for months due to the pandemic. But it was able to re-open again in the middle of March this year with a new restaurant terrace that can be used whatever the weather.
