Wedge-shaped Fixed Frame Awning
Fixed-Frame Commercial Awning Installation
This recently completed fixed-frame awning provides durable, all-weather protection for a commercial loading and access area.
The awning features a custom-fabricated aluminium frame, powder coated to closely match the colour of the PVC membrane, creating a clean and cohesive appearance that complements the building’s existing architecture.
The PVC canopy offers several advantages:
- 100% waterproof weather protection
- Excellent resistance to UV exposure and long-term outdoor use
- Rigid, stable structure with a clean architectural appearance
- Soft shade that reduces heat and glare
- Low-maintenance and easy to clean
For this customer, the primary objective was to protect the loading dock entrance so the roller door can remain open throughout the day without concerns about rain, wind-blown debris, or leaves entering the building. The result is a practical weather-protected workspace that improves day-to-day operations while maintaining a professional appearance.
The fixed-frame design provides a robust, long-lasting solution where retractable systems are unnecessary, delivering reliable protection year-round with minimal maintenance requirements.
Ideal Applications
Custom aluminium-framed PVC awnings are ideal for:
- Loading docks and service entrances
- Commercial doorways
- Outdoor work areas
- Walkways and access points
- Retail and hospitality entrances
- Industrial facilities requiring permanent weather protection
Custom-Made to Suit Your Site
If you’re looking for a durable, custom-made weather protection solution, we can design and manufacture fixed-frame awnings to suit virtually any commercial or residential application. Every awning is custom-built to suit the dimensions, weather exposure, and aesthetic requirements of the site.
Custom Tonneau Covers | Waterproof Ute Tray Covers
Custom Ute Tonneau Covers (Waterproof, Heavy Duty)
Protect your load and your vehicle with a custom-fit tonneau cover designed for durability, security, and a clean, tensioned finish. Whether you’re carrying tools, equipment, or general cargo, a waterproof ute tonneau cover keeps your tray dry and protected from the elements.
Each cover is made to suit your specific vehicle, ensuring a tight fit and long-term performance—ideal for utes, work vehicles, and everyday use.
Waterproof Tonneau Covers for Work and Everyday Use
A properly fitted tonneau cover does more than just cover the tray:
- Keeps rain and moisture out
- Protects tools and equipment from UV exposure and wear
- Reduces movement and flapping at speed
- Provides a tidy, professional finish
Designed for both trade and personal use, these covers are built to handle regular loading and outdoor conditions.
Custom-Fit Tonneau Covers for Utes
Every tonneau cover is tailored to the exact dimensions of your tray:
- Vehicle-specific fit for proper tension and coverage
- Front tracking system for secure attachment
- Stayput shock cord loops for reliable fastening
- Compatible with existing or new bungy button systems
This ensures a far more secure and durable result than generic, off-the-shelf covers.
Heavy Duty, Waterproof Materials
We use proven tonneau-specific fabrics designed for long-term outdoor exposure:
- Weatherguard tonneau fabric (approx. 640gsm)
- High tear strength and abrasion resistance
- Fully waterproof and UV stable
- Resistant to rot and general degradation
The result is a cover that maintains performance and appearance over time.
Reinforced for Real Use
Attention to detail is critical in high-stress areas:
- Reinforcement over support bars and load zones
- Strengthened edges and fixing points
- Felt lining under edges where required to protect vehicle paintwork
These details extend the life of both the cover and the vehicle.
Designed to Prevent Water Pooling
One of the most common failures in cheaper covers is water pooling.
We address this with:
- Custom-made support bars across the tray
- Designed to maintain tension and shed water effectively
This is a key structural element—not an optional extra.
Complete Supply and Fit
Our team can supply and install everything required:
- All fixings and attachment hardware
- Fitment tailored to your vehicle
- Adjustments to ensure correct tension and finish
Designed for New Zealand Conditions

Custom Bootliners | Waterproof Car & Dog Boot Liners
Custom Car Bootliners (Waterproof, Heavy Duty)
Protect your vehicle with a custom-fit boot liner designed for real-world use. Whether you’re transporting dogs, tools, or wet outdoor gear, our waterproof bootliners provide full coverage and prevent dirt, moisture, and wear from damaging your interior.
Each liner is made to suit your specific vehicle, delivering a secure fit with integrated side protection and seat-back coverage—ideal for SUVs, 4WDs, and everyday vehicles.
Waterproof Boot Liners for Dogs and Outdoor Use
Standard mats don’t provide enough coverage—especially when dealing with muddy dogs or wet equipment. Our dog boot liners are designed to:
- Contain dirt, hair, and moisture within the cargo area
- Protect side panels and seat backs from scratches and wear
- Include optional bumper (dog roll) protection to prevent paint damage during loading
The result is a clean, contained space that’s easy to maintain.
Custom-Fit Boot Liners for SUVs and 4WDs
Every bootliner is tailored to the exact shape of your vehicle:
- Vehicle-specific fit for full coverage
- Velcro fixing system to secure to sides and base
- Webbing attachment points to anchor to rear seats
- Designed to minimise movement and prevent debris getting underneath
This approach ensures a far better outcome than generic, off-the-shelf cargo liners.
Heavy Duty, Waterproof Materials
We use proven materials suited to demanding environments:
- 680gsm ripstop PVC or heavy-duty canvas options
- Fully waterproof and easy to clean
- Resistant to abrasion, punctures, and ongoing wear
Where appropriate, seams are welded or reinforced to maintain long-term durability.
Functional Features That Make a Difference
Our bootliners are designed around how vehicles are actually used:
- Seat-back protection panels with integrated access (e.g. zip openings for split-fold seats)
- Heavy-duty YKK zips for reliable operation
- Headrest coverage for high-contact areas
- Optional rear bumper protector (dog roll) extending out of the boot for loading protection
Each detail is included to improve usability and extend the life of your vehicle interior.
Designed for New Zealand Conditions
Our bootliners are made in New Zealand, with materials and construction methods chosen for local conditions—mud, sand, salt, and regular outdoor use.
A Long-Term Interior Protection Solution
This is not a disposable accessory. A custom bootliner is a durable, purpose-built solution designed to:
- Maintain vehicle condition and resale value
- Reduce cleaning time
- Withstand regular, heavy use

Sideline Shelter/Dug Out Covers
Sideline Shelter / Dugout Covers
We recently manufactured custom protective covers for sideline shelters (dugouts) to protect them when not in use. Constructed from Commander® solution-dyed polyester, these covers provide excellent weather protection and UV resistance, helping extend the life and appearance of the shelters in a demanding stadium environment.

Waterproof Shade Sail
Custom Waterproof Shade Sail – Inner Courtyard Installation
This project features a sharp, custom-designed waterproof shade sail installed within an inner courtyard, providing reliable weather protection while maintaining a clean architectural aesthetic.
Manufactured from Serge Ferrari 502 premium PVC, the sail is fully waterproof and track-mounted along the inner corner of the building, creating a seamless and durable interface with the house. The sail tapers elegantly down to a single external post, delivering both visual lightness and effective water shedding.
The sail was digitally site-measured, CAD-designed, and CNC-plotted, ensuring a precise fit down to the millimetre. All joins are high-frequency welded, with diagonal seam placement chosen for both strength and visual alignment. The perimeter is fully high-frequency welded and reinforced with a stainless steel perimeter wire for long-term shape retention and tensioning.
Constructed using PTFE UV-resistant thread where stitching is required, the sail is designed for longevity in harsh outdoor conditions. A tensioned stainless steel support wire was also installed beneath the sail to allow for the future addition of integrated lighting.
A highly technical solution delivered with a refined, minimal finish—engineered for performance, durability, and architectural harmony.
Custom Tailer Cover
We recently completed this custom-made trailer cage cover, designed and fabricated to follow the exact shape of the client’s trailer and cage frame.

Multiple zippered access points allow easy use of both side and front hatches, while the rear flap can be rolled up and secured when required. Finished with reinforced eyelets and a shock-cord fastening system around the base, the cover fits securely and is built for long-term, everyday use in demanding conditions.
