  • Shade Where You Live

    A folding arm awning shades a deck or patio when you want it, and folds neatly back against the wall when you don’t.
  • Built for Our Weather

    Hard-wearing frames and outdoor fabrics, chosen for Australian conditions and the salt air of the Peninsula.
  • 25+Years Fitting Blinds Locally
  • 5-YearGuarantee on Products and Workmanship

Folding Arm Awnings

Shade that winds out over your deck or patio, and folds away when you want the sun.

Arms extend from the wall to hold the awning out flat over a deck, patio or outdoor area, so you can sit outside in the shade on the hottest afternoon. When you are done, it winds back in and folds neatly against the house.

Folding arm awnings can be motorised to open and close at the touch of a button.

Outdoor Window Awnings

The simple way to keep the sun off the glass.

An outdoor window awning sits over a window, or runs along the front of the house, and shades the glass before the sun can heat the room behind it. It is the classic fix for windows that cop the afternoon sun, in plain colours or stripes to suit the house.

Canvas or Acrylic

Awning fabrics range from classic canvas to modern acrylic, in plain colours and the traditional stripes. We bring samples so you can see them against your walls, trims and roof, and talk through how each one handles sun and weather at your place.

New Awnings and Replacements

Is an old awning faded, torn or past its best? We can measure up and replace it with a new awning made to fit, or suggest a better system for the space if your needs have changed.

Every house is different, so we look at the whole structure first: which way the windows face, how exposed they are and how you use the space. Then we give you a millimetre-accurate measure and quote. We have been advising on and installing outdoor awnings and shade systems for more than 25 years, with fabrics and materials from suppliers including Brella, Hunter Douglas and Ricky Richards.

FAQs

What’s the difference between a folding arm awning and a window awning?

A folding arm awning winds out from the wall to shade a deck or patio and folds back when not in use. A window awning sits over a window to keep the sun off the glass.

Canvas or acrylic: which awning fabric is better?

Both are proven outdoor fabrics. Canvas has a classic look; acrylic is a modern alternative. We bring samples of both and talk through how each suits your house and its exposure.

Can you replace my old awning?

Yes. We measure up and replace it with a new awning made to fit, or recommend a different system if your needs have changed.

Can awnings be motorised?

Yes. Motorised folding arm awnings open and close at the touch of a button.

Do awnings really keep a house cooler?

Yes. Shading windows from the outside stops the sun’s heat before it reaches the glass, which is one of the most effective ways to control a building’s temperature in summer.

How do I look after an awning near the coast?

A gentle hose down every so often clears salt and grime. Awnings in exposed coastal spots need this more often, and retracting a folding arm awning in strong wind protects it.

Do awnings come with a guarantee?

Yes. Our five-year guarantee covers outdoor awnings, materials and installation alike.
