Awnings, Torquay and Geelong

External awnings have come a long way – no longer are they brown and beige-striped or white and green-striped with clunky track systems that jam up easily. Many of us have struggled with opening or closing an external awning or two in our lifetime! And often this struggle occurs at the worst times, like when it’s pouring rain or blowing gale-force winds. Champion Blinds installs quality external awnings for customers across Geelong and the Surf Coast.

Awnings today are more like architectural masterpieces, designed to withstand wind, rain, hail, the harsh Australian sun and more. They’re also not clunky like they used to be, you’ll be able to open and close your awning with ease, whether it’s one metre wide or four metres wide. Smart track systems glide open and closed with minimal exertion by the user.

Zipscreen awnings

Champion Blinds uses only the highest-quality brands such as Zipscreen which are among the sleekest awning options on the market. Zipscreen awnings can be installed almost flush against the window for a clean, minimal effect.

Zipscreen is described as the ultimate screening solution.

Described as the ultimate external screening solution, Zipscreen creates a weather and bug-proof screen to enclose and protect outdoor areas such as verandas, pergolas and balconies. Zipscreens effectively help you create a new room with the ultimate outdoors perspective.

Standard Zipscreen screens come in widths up to five metres but if you have an even wider space to enclose, Zipscreen Extreme will span a seven-metre gap. The variety of size options means there is a Zipscreen for almost any space, including home and office windows.

Zipscreens feature the latest interlocking technology and their self-aligning channels mean they are suitable for areas that do not follow standard square alignments.

Want added privacy? Zipscreen comes in various external fabrics, including screen meshes that control visibility and stop prying eyes.

If traditional awnings are not the preferred option for your Geelong or Torquay home, consider Zipscreen to bring the outdoors indoors.
