ALuminium Awnings

Awnings are a simple and stylish way to protect your home or business from the North Queensland sun and rain. Available in a range of aluminium and louvre styles to suit any budget, they’re built for lasting performance and visual appeal.

The traditional hooded range offers reliable protection in a variety of colours, while louvre awnings come with fixed or adjustable blades for greater control over privacy and light. Both styles are designed to handle local conditions and enhance your property year-round.

Fabric Awnings

Fabric awnings are a practical and stylish way to add shade and comfort to your outdoor areas. Designed to block harsh sunlight while keeping your space bright and airy, they’re ideal for patios, verandas and windows.

Available in block-out and woven mesh fabrics, these awnings offer the perfect balance between privacy and visibility. They help protect interiors from UV damage, reduce glare and improve energy efficiency, all while enhancing the look of your home or business.

Folding Arm Awnings

Folding arm awnings are a smart way to create shade and comfort in any outdoor area — from patios and decks to balconies or commercial spaces. They help reduce heat, shield against harsh UV rays and make your outdoor space more inviting.

Folding out horizontally without the need for posts, they keep areas open and easy to move through. Choose between crank handle or motorised operation, with options for remote control or smart device connection. With automated sun and wind sensors available, you can relax knowing your awning adjusts itself for maximum protection and convenience.

Channel Roll Up Awnings

Channel roll up fabric awnings are a practical and easy-to-use choice for verandas, decks and patios. Ideally fitted between walls or posts, they use a channel system to guide and lock the fabric skin and bottom rail securely in place.

The channels and mounting brackets can be powder coated to suit your individual taste, creating a stylish finish that blends beautifully with your home while providing reliable shade and protection all year round.

Automatic Lock Arm Awnings

Automatic awnings are ideal for privacy, sun protection and light control, offering an affordable way to keep your home cool and comfortable. Available in a wide range of styles and fabrics, including acrylic, canvas and mesh, they provide full shade and a timeless look for any window.

The automatic locking arm design uses round guide bars fastened at the top and bottom, with arms attached to each end of the bottom rail. With a simple roll of the wrist, the rail unlocks and glides smoothly along the guides, letting you adjust or secure the awning at any height.

Pivot Arm Awnings

Pivot arm awnings are a versatile way to manage light and heat while still allowing fresh air to flow through your home. Available in a wide range of colours and fabrics, they’re both stylish and practical for modern living.

These awnings are perfect for second-storey windows or hard-to-reach areas where external manual operation isn’t convenient. They combine functionality and design to help keep your home cool, comfortable and shaded throughout the year.

Roll Up Gear Operated Awnings

Roll up gear operated awnings are a strong and reliable external sunscreen system built for everyday use. With no side guides or channels, they won’t interfere with decorative fretwork or post mouldings, preserving the look of your home.

Available with stainless steel wire guides and fittings, they can also be motorised for added convenience. Practical and durable, these awnings make it easy to control sun, shade and airflow while enhancing your outdoor living areas.

Straight Drop Awnings

Straight drop awnings remove the hassle of ropes, pulleys or tie-down points, offering a clean and practical solution for sun and weather protection. Using channels to guide the fabric and bottom rails, the Crank-IT design combines flexibility with simplicity.

This style includes a standard crank control or can be upgraded to remote operation for added ease. Both the fabric and hardware can be colour-matched to suit your home, giving a neat, modern finish that complements any outdoor setting.

Alpha M Awnings

The Alpha M Awning is the next evolution in outdoor shade solutions. Featuring Australia’s first and only magnetic retention system, it delivers up to 200kg of pull force to keep the fabric perfectly taut and smooth as it moves.

Built for Australia’s harsh climate, this awning combines strength and flexibility with effortless performance. The free-floating side channels allow the fabric to adjust during windy conditions, maintaining tension without strain. It’s a sleek, durable and innovative choice for lasting protection and year-round comfort.
