The detail

Outdoor blinds and awnings extend an outdoor space into a usable all-weather area. We have supplied patios, restaurants, schools, and retail across greater Durban and SA since 1994.

Supply, not install

We are a manufacturer, not an installer. We cut and build the PVC blinds, canvas awnings, and repair components to your exact spec, and we refer you to an installer we trust in greater Durban for fitting. Many clients use their own handyman or shopfitter. This keeps our lead times tight and our prices lower than a supply-and-install operation.

Repairs, re-skins, and window replacement

A big slice of our blinds work is keeping existing installations going. Welded patches on torn PVC, replacement clear-window panels, full re-skins on existing frames, seam re-welds where the old PVC has perished. Drop the blind at our KZN factory or we collect in greater Durban.

Most repairs cost a fraction of a full replacement and extend service life by years. If your patio blinds are cloudy, torn, or split at the seams, phone us before ordering new.

Clear PVC, canvas, or sheer weave

Clear PVC keeps the view and blocks the rain. Canvas gives shade and a softer feel. Sheer weave gives light and privacy control without full block-out. We combine fabrics on larger openings, a canvas awning with drop-down clear PVC for wet-weather cover is our most common restaurant spec.

Fabric and PVC detail

Canvas is 420 to 680 gsm, UV and mildew treated. PVC is 0.5 to 0.8 mm thick, UV stabilised, available clear, bronze, smoke, or coloured. We supply the fabric, the roller, the window panels, the webbing straps, and any custom printing. Your installer fits it.

Motorised systems

For motorised installations, we supply Somfy-compatible fabric and PVC. The motor, controls, and wiring come from your installer or motor supplier. We can recommend installers who work with Somfy on a regular basis.
