Outdoor Screens for All-Season Use

  • Advice
- February 24, 2021

Don’t just assume that when the weather changes in autumn it’s time to store away your outdoor furniture and BBQ. If you aren’t able to regularly enjoy your outdoor areas, we have the ideal solution for you – an outdoor screen!

Enclose your deck, veranda, balcony or patio with Ziptrak® outdoor screens to create a versatile outdoor space you can use all year round. In cooler months, outdoor screens effectively add another room to your home where the kids can play and you can entertain, protected from New Zealand’s variable weather conditions.

Ziptrak residental outdoor screen in mesh provides shade and privacy for outdoor deck and BBQ area

Ziptrak®  is an award-winning, track-guided system, with components that guide your screen down a robust track and hold it in place whatever the weather. This eliminates billowing and draughts in windy conditions and helps you control the temperature, keeping you warm and dry in winter, and cool in summer.

You can choose a clear screen to protect your view or a mesh screen that improves privacy from passers-by and neighbours while still allowing you to see out.

Ziptrak® operates without zips, pulleys or bungees and can also be motorised and operated with a convenient remote control. Its easy-open system also has a quick-exit safety feature that allows you to leave the area rapidly in case of emergency.

Keep the wind and rain out this winter with our custom made Ziptrak® outdoor blinds.

Your Sunshade consultant will help you come up with the perfect solution to transform your outdoor area into a room you can use daily, no matter the weather!
