Motorised Folding Arm Awnings ( Also known as Retractable Awnings)  Are the perfect solution for creating a usable and comfortable space out off the sun to entertain or just simply relax.  Our motorised folding arm awnings can be connected to a centralised control to operate via remote, a smart phone or by  a simple voice command. Motorised Blinds Australia has a range of motorised full cassette, semi cassette and open faced folding arm awnings to choose from. 

The Traditional Canvas Sun blind is the the quintessential Australian Awning. Also known as an Auto Lock Awning they have been an Australian favourite for decades.  These Auto Lock Awnings are simplistic in their design, extremely reliable and super effective in  protecting   and keeping homes cool from Australias  harsh sun. Even though Auto Lock Awnings cannot be motorised.  Motorised Blinds Australia has included it in our awning line to offer  afull range of external window furnishing solutions. 

Motorised Fixed Guides as the name suggest have 2 fixed guide rails on either side of the awning with side runners instead of locking arms. They are closely related to the Auto Lock Awning. They are mostly installed on high windows however they can also be used as a motorised option for lower ground windows as well. (instead of Auto Lock Awnings) Motorised fixed guide awnings can be manufactured using canvas, Acrylic and Screen type fabrics.

Motorised ZipTrak & Zipscreen Awnings are a group of awning systems which typically falls in the category of straight drops( In that they travel straight up and down)  What makes these awnings unique is that the fabric has a special spline or zip welded to the edges which then locks into side channels. This gives the awning cloth lateral tension and also prevents the cloth being blown out of the channel on a windy day.

Motorised Straight Drop Awnings as the name suggests are awnings which travel at a vertical axis straight up and down.

This type of awnings are typically strapped down to the ground or deck.  The motor used has a torque setting which backs off and create adequate tension on the fabric.  Even though there are straight drops which have side channels we have classified these un motorised ztracks,zip screens and STC awnings.

The Drop Arm Awning is a stylish choice in the world of external shading systems. It simple design makes it hard wearing and relatively maintenance free. Popular in in Europe, it has a unique arc range of motion

Motorised drop arm awnings can be operated via a remote control , smart phone or even voice command. Our motorised drop arm awnings can also be connected to Somfy Connexoon Windows RTS and  you can create scenarios in which the awnings will open and close.
