Auto Awnings
Auto Awnings are a traditional roll-up awning on guides with an arm running up and down on rollers that will automatically stop at any point along the guide. The awning is operated by tilting it downward to release, allowing a tensioned spring to roll the blind up. Releasing the arm will stop the awning at your desired position. Finishes are available in straight or scalloped flap styles, or with a rail finish.
Coastal packs are available for the bottom brackets, guides and arms. The are ideal for ground floor windows to increase airflow, not suited for high set windows.

FAQ
Do awnings help reduce heat inside a home?
Awnings help reduce heat by blocking direct sunlight before it reaches the window glass. When sunlight hits windows directly, it increases indoor temperatures quickly. By shading the window from the outside, awnings reduce solar heat gain and help keep indoor spaces cooler. This can improve comfort inside the home, particularly during warmer months when sun exposure is strongest.
What type of awning works best for outdoor areas?
The best awning depends on how the outdoor space is used. Zip-Screens are often chosen for patios and outdoor rooms because they create a screened environment while allowing airflow. Auto Awnings are suitable for lower level windows. Fixed aluminium awnings work well for windows that receive constant sunlight and require permanent protection.
Are awnings suitable for windy or exposed locations?
Many awning systems are designed to handle outdoor conditions when installed correctly. Fixed aluminium awnings provide strong protection for exposed windows, while guided systems such as Zip-Screens use track systems that keep the fabric secure. However, weather exposure varies between homes, so choosing the right awning design and installation method is important for long-term performance.
