Ziptrak with Removable Post

Posted on by

An all-weather outdoor room in a matter of seconds! Ziptrak’s offer the ultimate in protection from wind and rain and can be installed in such a way that they blend into the environment when not required.

Removable posts are a great option when you have a large open span that you don’t want permanently interrupted. Removable posts are only available on manually operated Ziptrak blinds.

These Ziptrak also have the optional full pelmet fitted. This fully encases the roller tube at the top for a cleaner installation and added protection for the blind when opened.

Sundream Sail

Posted on by

We recently supplied a new shade sail as part of the recent refurbishment at Sierra Cafe – Botany​. We used Hiraoka Sundream fabric to replace the existing sail which was tired and poorly fitting. Sundream has amazing light transmission properties while protecting from the UV and rain – and don’t forget that amazing colour. Pop down & grab a coffee to see it for yourself!

Oztech Retractable Pergola

Posted on by

Another day, another Oztech Retractable Pergola! Check out this job we recently completed in Te Atatu Peninsula.

Fully retractable when the weather is nice, and both UV-proof and waterproof when extended, as well as coupled with remote dimmable LED lighting – this deck area is now open for business or pleasure 24/7 365! Running off the lounge, the retractable pergola effectively doubles the living area.

Ziptrak Blinds at Hunting Lodge

Posted on by

We recently returned to the Hunting Lodge to install Ziptrak outdoor blinds along the outside edge of the Oztech retractable pergola we installed last year during their renovation of The Barn.

Each of these blinds is 4 metres wide and 2.5 metres tall. We used Ferrari Soltis 86 mesh for the blind material. Soltis 86 has excellent properties for mesh outdoor blinds, especially larger ones like these – its best characteristics being its light weight and incredible strength and dimensional stability.
