External shade solutions including zip screens and awnings that provide excellent sun protection, privacy, weather protection, and energy efficiency.
We supply and install both zip screens and awnings, giving you everything you need to shade, shelter and protect your outdoor living spaces. Zip screens lock into side channels for a wind-resistant, gap-free screen over patios and alfresco areas, while our awnings — available in folding arm, fixed and retractable styles — shade windows, entries and entertaining areas. We custom-make and install both throughout Wollongong, Shellharbour, Kiama and the Southern Highlands, so you can get the right solution for every opening from a single local supplier.
The zip-locking fabric runs in a track down each side, sealing the edges so there are no gaps flapping in the wind. That makes zip screens ideal for exposed coastal patios where standard blinds struggle, keeping sun, glare, insects and light rain out while letting breezes through on comfortable days. Available in a range of mesh transparencies so you choose how much view to keep.
Our folding arm awnings extend over patios and alfresco areas and retract out of sight when not needed. Fixed and canopy awnings provide permanent shade over windows and entries, reducing heat and glare inside the home before the sun ever hits the glass. Every awning is custom-made in the fabric, colour and size that suits your home.
Both zip screens and awnings are available with manual or motorised operation, including remote control and smart-home integration. Add wind sensors that automatically retract your awning or raise your screens when the breeze picks up, keeping them protected and your home comfortable without any effort.
We use durable, weather-resistant frames and fabrics designed to handle the Illawarra's sun, wind and salt air. Every screen and awning is measured, made and installed by our own local team, starting with a free on-site consultation and quote.
Cost depends on the style (zip screen or awning type), size, fabric and motorisation. As each solution is custom-made, the best way to get an accurate figure is a free on-site measure and quote. Call us on 0411 397 100.
