Winter Garden Indoor Blinds
Under-glass blinds providing protection from the sun’s harmful rays. We used Soltis 86 by Serge Ferrari – an amazing product.
The blinds are currently installed in a fixed position with tension provided by tubular springs at the top – ready for phase 2 – motorisation!

Ziptrak with Removable Post
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.
Ziptrak Blinds at Hunting Lodge
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.

Pt Chev Beach Cafe Retractable Pergola
Another job completed last week – an Oztech retractable pergola for Pt Chev beach cafe. Some tricky angles at play on this one requiring some out of the thinking to get total coverage of assymetrical patio. The solution involved an additional gutter installed on an angle and a fixed/permanent triangular in-fill. Result = total coverage and still looks really sharp.
If you’re in the neighbourhood, go grab a coffee, check out the roof, and get a testimonial off Karim, the proprietor!
Next up, track guided blinds all round to create the ultimate all-weather indoor-outdoor dining room!

Invisible Ziptrak
When rolled up, these Ziptrak screens are undetectable. The Ziptrak units are mounted on the outside of the building in fully enclosed pelmet units. They are mounted above rather than inside the opening so that they can’t be seen. The vertical posts are also removable making the area fully open when the screens are up.
