Cool & Comfortable Living

Awnings are an effective way to keep homes cooler, protect outdoor areas and add style to your property. They reduce glare and heat indoors by blocking sunlight before it reaches your windows, while also creating shaded, comfortable spaces outside.


At BlindDESIGN, we supply and install a wide variety of awnings, including folding arm, MagnaTrack, drop down, pivot arm and Boulevard designs. Each type is suited to different needs, from covering wide patios to protecting windows or creating private outdoor retreats. Every awning is custom measured and professionally installed for reliable performance and durability. With more than 25 years of experience, BlindDESIGN helps clients choose the right awning solutions to suit their home and lifestyle.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • How do awnings affect natural light indoors?

    Awnings block harsh sunlight while still allowing softer, indirect light into a room. This reduces glare without leaving interiors dark. It creates a more balanced, comfortable level of natural light throughout the day.

  • Can awnings be used over outdoor kitchens or dining areas?

    Yes, many awning types such as MagnaTrack or Boulevard are ideal for covering alfresco areas. They provide shade and protection, allowing outdoor spaces to be used comfortably in a wider range of conditions. This makes them especially popular for entertaining.

  • Do awnings require a lot of maintenance?

    Awnings are designed to be durable and generally require only minimal care. Occasional cleaning of the fabric and hardware is usually enough to keep them in good condition. Regular professional checks can extend their lifespan even further.

Folding Arm Awnings

Folding arm awnings extend horizontally without the need for support posts, making them perfect for patios, verandas and decks where you want shade without obstruction. When not in use, the arms fold neatly away, leaving the space open and uncluttered.


At BlindDESIGN, we supply folding arm awnings in a wide choice of fabrics and colours to match your home’s style. They create a shaded outdoor living space while also reducing indoor heat by blocking direct sunlight. These awnings can be operated manually or motorised for convenience, giving you control at the touch of a button. Their robust construction ensures they withstand regular use while maintaining smooth operation. Folding arm awnings combine flexibility and practicality, making them one of the most versatile shading options for homeowners who want to maximise their outdoor living areas.

MagnaTrack Awnings

MagnaTrack awnings are designed to remain stable in windy conditions, making them ideal for exposed outdoor settings. Their magnetic side-track system holds the fabric securely in place, preventing flapping and ensuring reliable performance.


At BlindDESIGN, we custom measure and install MagnaTrack awnings to provide a perfect fit and long-term durability. They are especially useful for enclosing patios and verandas, creating protected spaces that can be used year-round. These awnings also improve indoor comfort by stopping heat and glare before it enters through windows. Available in a variety of colours and fabric densities, MagnaTrack awnings can be customised to suit your needs and preferences. With their combination of advanced engineering and modern design, they are one of the most effective options for shading and outdoor comfort in Ballina.

Drop Down Awnings

Drop down awnings provide straightforward vertical shading for windows, balconies and outdoor areas. They lower directly down to cover the opening and retract when not needed, making them simple to use and highly practical.


At BlindDESIGN, we supply drop down awnings that are individually measured for precision and smooth operation. Homeowners can choose from a wide selection of fabrics, including light-filtering mesh for daytime privacy or full blockout for maximum shade. These awnings are ideal for reducing glare inside and protecting furniture and flooring from UV exposure. Their clean, minimal design suits both modern and traditional homes, adding functionality without overwhelming the look of the property. Drop down awnings are durable, low maintenance and cost-effective, making them a popular choice for everyday use.

Pivot Arm Awnings

Pivot arm awnings use angled arms to hold the fabric away from the window, allowing both shading and airflow. This makes them particularly effective for windows that require ventilation even when the awning is down.


At BlindDESIGN, we supply pivot arm awnings that are custom built to suit your property, ensuring smooth operation and long-term performance. They can be operated manually or motorised for added convenience. Available in a wide range of colours and fabrics, these awnings can be designed to complement your home’s style. By stopping sunlight before it hits the glass, pivot arm awnings reduce indoor heat build-up and glare. Their angled position makes them one of the most practical solutions for maintaining fresh air indoors while still keeping your home shaded and comfortable.
