: A great combination of these products

We have used Aluminium Plantation shutters to provide a flexible privacy screen to each side of the deck. The louvres move to provide either a more weather protected space or increased ventilation.

This client has experienced intense glare and heat not only onto to her deck but also into the back of the house, external blinds have solved both problems and yet maintained the view into the garden. Sandi and Tony are delighted with the result of this project, and with the addition of an external gas heater they plan to host their family get togethers, all year round on their new living room deck.

This Retractable Roof has been built to withstand a large of weather conditions and is one of the few options available for summer and winter use. Most awnings are designed for sun protection only and are not suitable to be left out in strong winds. An Italian company, Corradi have successfully been manufacturing a range of retactable roofs for a number of years and these are now available in Australia. The roof can be attached to an existing or purpose built structure such as a pergola or used on timber, aluminium or stainless uprights.

Why Buy Awnings?

The key reason people buy awnings is to keep the heat out – a simple fabric awning can reduce the heat going through the window by up to 75%, reducing the room’s temperature and air conditioning costs.

Additional benefits include reduction of UV rays that fade flooring furniture and artworks. Reduction of glare, for a more relaxed visual environment. Creation of additional shaded outdoor living space- a retractable awning over a deck or pergola provides practical and affordable shade during the summer, whilst retracting to enjoy the warm sun during the winter.
