Australians love making the most of their outdoor spaces, spending plenty of their time relaxing on the patio, entertaining friends on the deck, or enjoying a family meal in the alfresco area. However, harsh sunlight, unpredictable weather, and pesky insects can quickly put an end to your plans. That’s where Zipscreen blinds come in.
At Aussie Online Blinds, among other outdoor living products, we supply high-quality, locally made Zipscreen outdoor blinds that transform your patio, veranda, balcony, or pergola into a comfortable, all-weather living space. Stylish, durable, and custom-made to fit your home, Zipscreens offer the perfect balance of function and elegance.
Below, we’ll explore what Zipscreens are, the different options available, and the many benefits they offer to Australian homeowners.
What Are Zipscreen Outdoor Blinds?
Zipscreen is an Australian-designed outdoor blind system created to provide privacy, comfort, and weather protection all year round. Using patented locking technology, the blinds are secured within side channels, ensuring there are no gaps for light, wind, or insects to get through. This creates a sealed outdoor space that still feels open and airy.
Zipscreens are custom-made to your measurements, available in a wide range of colours and fabrics, and built to withstand Australia’s tough conditions. They can be fitted to a variety of outdoor areas, from small balconies to large entertaining spaces up to 5 metres wide and 3 metres in drop.
Manual Zipscreen
If you prefer a simple and cost-effective option, manual Zipscreens can be operated by hand. Choose between a spring-operated system (with telescopic handle option), allowing you to raise and lower the blind by pulling on the weight bar, or a detachable crank handle for smooth winding.
Motorised Zipscreen
For those who look for ultimate convenience, motorised Zipscreens operate at the touch of a button. With remote control option, this is ideal for large or hard-to-reach installations and adds a touch of luxury to your outdoor living.
Benefits of Zipscreen Blinds
Weather Protection
Zipscreen blinds will help you shield your outdoor area from harsh UV rays, strong winds, and heavy rain. In summer, they work to keep the sun off your patio, reducing heat and glare. In winter months, they help trap warmth from outdoor heaters, allowing you to enjoy your space year-round. As they’re made from high-quality, water-resistant fabrics, Zipscreen blinds can also protect your outdoor furniture from fading, mould, and any kind of weather damage.
Enhanced Privacy
If your outdoor area is overlooked by neighbours or visible from the street, Zipscreen blinds can help you turn that space into a cosy private retreat. The mesh design allows you to enjoy the view from inside while preventing others from seeing in. This means you can relax, entertain, or work outdoors without feeling exposed.
Improve Energy Efficiency & Comfort
By blocking heat in summer and retaining warmth in winter, Zipscreens help regulate the temperature in adjacent indoor areas. This way, you can reduce your reliance on air conditioning or heating, potentially lowering your energy bills. The added comfort means you’ll make better use of your outdoor space throughout the year.
Motorisation Option
As mentioned above, motorised Zipscreen blinds will make adjusting your blinds effortless. Controlling them with a remote, you can fine-tune your shade and privacy without leaving your seat. For extra convenience.
Low-Maintenance & Durable Design
Because they’re made from premium aluminium and UV-resistant, mould-resistant fabrics, Zipscreen blinds can last for years with minimal upkeep. A quick clean with soapy water every few months is all that’s needed to keep them looking fresh. The patented track-guided system ensures smooth, reliable operation without the tangling or flapping issues common with traditional outdoor blinds.
How Much Do Zipscreen Blinds Cost?
The cost of Zipscreen blinds varies depending on size, fabric choice, control type, and optional extras such as a hood box or bubble seal. At Aussie Online Blinds, our outdoor Zipscreen blinds start from $757.01.
Since Zipscreens are custom-made, the best way to get an accurate price is to measure your space and choose your preferred specifications through our easy online ordering system. You’ll be able to see your price instantly and have your blinds made to order and delivered directly to your door, saving you time and money compared to traditional showroom purchases.
