Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) on Sun Protection, Projection Technology, and Automation
Help Section Sun Protection
Frequently asked questions about awnings and sun protection technology from Motorline, the renowned European manufacturer from Portugal. A large proportion of the awnings marketed by the former supplier Exclusiv-Home in the 2010s were also manufactured by Motorline, which is why we can supply all vital spare parts for the popular awning models EH6100, EH6400, and EH7100, including those for the lamellar and conservatory awnings. These awnings are still offered today under the labels COFRE 260, COFRE 600, and COFRE 260 VOLANTE, with virtually identical construction.
The former awning supplier Exclusiv-Home marketed Motorline awnings under the names EH6100, EH6400 and EH7100 more than 15 years ago, and a video from that time still exists showing the replacement of the awning motor.
Since these model series (EH6100 corresponds to COFRE 260, EH6400 corresponds to COFRE 600 and EH7100 corresponds to COFRE 260 VOLANTE) are still offered by the manufacturer Motorline today, the video is still current.
Many years ago, Exclusiv-Home, in collaboration with Motorline, produced a video demonstrating the step-by-step replacement of the folding arms on an EH6100 awning. Since this awning model continues to be manufactured by Motorline under the label COFRE 260, the replacement arms currently offered remain compatible (for the EH6100 and EH6400 models, only the folding arm mounts are additionally required), and the video remains relevant.
To ensure the proper functioning of the awning, the folding arms are available only in pairs via the following links: EH6100/COFRE260, EH7100/COFRE260 VOLANTE, EH6400/COFRE600.
Motorline has published a video about replacing an awning fabric. Since the Portuguese manufacturer also produced the EH6100, EH6400, and EH7100 awning models, the procedure described in the video also applies to awnings from Exclusiv-Home, with the exception of the model Luxury with integrated lighting in the folding arms, which was an import from the Far East.
Individually handcrafted replacement fabrics and valances, made in a German master workshop, are available via the following link.
Below, you will find a simple video in which we look over the shoulder of a Motorline technician as he installs the pull cable in Portugal. Furthermore, a detailed, illustrated guide on the pull cable routing is available for download.
In addition to the pull cable, replacement motors, guide pulleys, and cable guides are also available. When replacing the motor, please note that the side cap with the motor mount is also required, as the successor motor model TUB90M8MT no longer fits into the previously installed motor mount.
The latest version of MOTORLINE's awning drives is the TUB90M8-MT. This can also be used as a replacement for a defective TUB70MT-75 in older Exclusiv-Home awning models, but the motor bracket must also be replaced.
For the cassette awnings EH6100 and EH7100, this is the motor bracket T260TP and for the conservatory awnings EH8100, EH8200 and EH8300, this is the motor bracket TVAR24 together with the side cover TVAR04.
Attached are illustrated instructions for attaching the awning motor TUB90 to the bracket TVAR24/TVAR04.
