Our Products
Our range of products is a reflection of our passion – we love to make beautiful structures from fabric! Structures to provide protection from sun and rain, but equally important to us, structures which make a “quality and style” statement about their location and their owners. Awnings, canopies, sails, large shade structures, blinds, umbrellas, tents, covers, screens and even “clothes” for buildings.
Awnings
An awning or overhang is a secondary covering attached to the exterior wall of a building. It is typically composed of canvas woven of acrylic, cotton or polyester yarn, or vinyl laminated to polyester fabric that is stretched tightly over a light structure of aluminium, iron or steel, possibly coot or transparent material (used to cover solar thermal panels in the summer, but that must allow as much light as possible in the winter).
The location of an awning on a building may be above a window, a door, or above the area along a sidewalk. With the addition of columns an awning becomes a canopy, which is able to extend further from a building, as in the case of an entrance to a hotel. Restaurants often use awnings broad enough to cover substantial outdoor area for outdoor dining, parties, or reception.
Retractable Awnings
We stock and assemble to custom sizes European-made retractable awnings in sizes up to 6 metres x 3.0 metres. We fit quality Sunbrella acrylic fabric and quality-made motors & controllers. Manual operation is also available.
Fixed Awning
Curved Leading Edges – No Intermediate Rafters Fabric is attached to the building and tensioned outwards to the two end supports; this style is applicable only where supports can be made sufficiently sturdy to resist the tension on the fabric (by struts, stays or by using materials of sufficient dimension & rigidity).
Fixed Awning
Curved Leading Edges – Curved Rafters The fabric is attached to the back of the rafter and tensioned towards the outer & upper ends of the curved rafters; leading edges are curved and contain stainless steel cables to assist with tensioning; awnings can be any length and can extend outwards to a maximum of ~3 metres.
Fixed Awning
Curved Leading Edges – Straight Rafter As for curved rafter awnings but rafters are straight and can be configured with fabric either above or below the rafters; fabric generally does not touch rafters.
Fixed Awning
Straight Leading Edges Fabric is attached to the top of its steel frame and tensioned using purpose-made aluminium tensioning profile; these awnings can be up to 2.5 metres wide and any length.
Canopies
There are many styles of canopy – some take support from purpose-installed columns, others are attached to other structures away from the host building, like walls, fences, other buildings or even trees. Use our Design Service to assist with your canopy project.
Shade Sails
Shade sails are becoming increasingly popular these days due to their functionality and inherent beauty. The architectural design of shade sails brings a sense of lightness and ease to whatever space they are in.
The purpose of shade sails is seemingly endless. One can create the illusion of space where previously there was none by using a shade sail over an entrance or back patio. They also provide a cover for a whole host of spaces, such as children’s’ play areas, patios, decks, backyards, swimming pools, and gathering spaces like outdoor bars and restaurants.
Fabrics Shade-only (mesh) fabrics: made from long-lasting, washable and serviceable knitted HDPE (high density polyethylene) to provide up to 94% shade factor, or architectural grade Serge-Ferrari Soltis PVC coated polyester mesh fabric.
ranges! Rain-proof (solid) fabrics: architectural PVC coated polyester from Europe with a range of colours, finish textures, coatings and translucency, or for some applications solution-dyed acrylic fabric (such as Sunbrella).
