Awnings, blinds and shutters
in Sandton
Sandton entertains outdoors, and its patios are built for it. We measure, make to order and install louvre awnings, ceiling awnings, outdoor blinds and shutters across Sandton, Bryanston, Morningside, Rivonia and Atholl, starting with a free site visit.
Louvre awnings
An adjustable aluminium roof for the entertaining patio: open to the sky at lunch, sealed before the afternoon storm.
Ceiling awnings
Insulated panels and flush downlights that give a Sandton patio a ceiling as finished as the rooms behind it.
Outdoor roller blinds
Drop-down screens that close an open patio side against low sun, wind and the evening chill.
Aluminium shutters
Louvred aluminium blades that manage daylight through the day and lock into a solid barrier after dark.
Indoor roller blinds
Blockout, screen and zebra fabrics measured to the window, from bedrooms to double-volume glass.
Venetian blinds
Powder-coated 25mm slats for kitchens and studies that tilt to a precise line of light and wipe clean.
Shade for established suburbs
Our Gauteng crew installs across Sandton, and site visits run through Bryanston, Morningside, Rivonia, Atholl and Hyde Park on the same routes. Homes here tend to have generous patios and gardens planned around entertaining, and the shade has to hold that standard: marine-grade powder-coated aluminium, stainless steel fasteners, and blades, panels and screens made to measure for the space rather than trimmed to fit it.
Many properties in the area sit inside complexes and estates with aesthetic committees, so we supply the drawings and product specifications owners typically need for approval. The site visit is free, a fixed written quote follows within 48 hours of the measure, and every installation closes with a written guarantee registered to your address.

A louvre roof over an upstairs balcony
Slats tilted open frame the rooftops and greenery beyond this first-floor balcony, and one turn of the blades seals the roof when weather moves in.

A finished ceiling for an enclosed balcony
White interlocking panels and a recessed downlight run over this enclosed balcony, hiding the roof structure above and softening the heat it once passed straight through.
Sandton questions
The practical things people ask before booking a site visit.
Do you install awnings, blinds and shutters in Sandton?
Yes. Our Gauteng crew installs across Sandton, and site visits also run through Bryanston, Morningside, Rivonia, Atholl and Hyde Park. The visit is free and carries no obligation.
My home is in an estate with aesthetic rules. Can you work with that?
Yes. Many estates and bodies corporate in the Sandton area have rules on colours, profiles and visible additions, and we supply the drawings and product specifications owners typically need for approval. Powder-coated aluminium comes in a wide colour range, so matching an approved palette is rarely a problem.
How quickly can you do a site visit in Sandton?
Usually within a few working days. Once we have measured, your fixed written quote follows within 48 hours.
Will hail damage a louvre or ceiling awning?
Aluminium stands up to highveld hail far better than fabric, canvas or polycarbonate sheeting. We will not promise a surface that hail can never mark, because nobody honestly can, but how exposed your blades and panels would be is one of the things we look at during the free site visit.
