Retracta Roof

Custom retractable roofing for year-round outdoor living

Transform your indoor-outdoor areas with the Retracta Roof — a fully motorised retractable roofing system designed to give you effortless control over sunlight, shade, and weather protection at the touch of a button. Whether you’re enhancing a patio, pergola, or poolside retreat, this innovative roofing solution redefines outdoor living with style and convenience.

Choose from a selection of premium materials including crystal-clear glass, durable polycarbonate, or insulated solid panels — each tailored to meet your specific needs. We collaborate with homeowners, builders, architects, and engineers to design each Retracta Roof to exact specifications. Custom-built to your exact dimensions, every Retracta Roof features a carefully engineered slope to ensure efficient rainwater drainage and lasting performance. 

Powered by precision-engineered German motors, operation is smooth, quiet, and reliable. The robust drive system utilises concealed steel chains and roller bearings for exceptional strength and durability—far superior to fabric belt alternatives. Plus, with minimal maintenance required — typically just an annual chain lubrication — you can enjoy peace of mind season after season.

Designed to seamlessly integrate with your lifestyle, the Retracta Roof can be mounted from walls, installed above your roofline, or even replace sections of existing roofing to create a flawless indoor-outdoor flow. Complement your space further with optional colour finishes, integrated lighting, heating, and fans — making this more than a roof, it’s a luxurious upgrade to your home and lifestyle. 

Bring the outdoors in with a motorised retractable roof system that delivers style, performance, and total lifestyle flexibility — crafted for Australian homes.
