The Best Awnings or Blinds for Year-Round Outdoor Living

Sydney’s weather can be a beautiful paradox – offering glorious sunshine one day and blustery winds the next. To make the most of your outdoor space, you need a solution as adaptable as the climate.

Outdoor awnings and blinds offer unique benefits, but their combination creates the ultimate all-season outdoor haven of comfort and style. Let’s shed some light on choosing the right option for your needs!

Awnings: Summer Shade & Style

• Beat the Heat: Awnings like our Aria and Cleo provide expansive shade, reducing heat gain and harsh glare on scorching summer days. Their adjustable depth allows for personalised sun control, keeping your outdoor space breezy and inviting.
• Perfect for patios, decks, balconies, outdoor dining and poolside areas

Blinds: Winter Warmth & Protection

• Weatherproof Your Space: ScreenTex blinds, available in durable mesh or clear PVC options, create a robust barrier against wind, rain, dust and even insects, allowing you to extend and enjoy your outdoor space year-round.
• Insulation and Privacy: Blinds trap heat, control light and glare, and create a cosy winter retreat. They also offer privacy and light control for added comfort.
• Ideal Applications: Balconies, enclosed patios, windows and doors, pergolas and gazebos.

The Dynamic Duo: Awnings + Blinds

• Summer Bliss: Extend your awning for shade and enjoy the open-air feel. Lower the blinds for privacy or when the weather turns.
• Winter Warmth: Keep blinds closed for insulation and warmth. On sunny days, retract the blinds and let the awning capture the sun’s heat.
