Roller Shades

Roller Shades are a sleek and practical solution for shading under your pergola, veranda, or alfresco area. Designed for simple operation, just roll the shade down, grab the lightweight bottom bar, lift and clip it into place with the swivel clips, then tighten using the crank handle. For added ease, motorisation is also available.

Sun & Glare Control

Roller shades help reduce harsh sunlight and glare, making outdoor spaces more enjoyable. With mesh fabrics available in 0%, 1%, or 5% openness, you can manage light levels while keeping views and airflow.

Privacy & Comfort

Lower the shades to create privacy and shelter from wind or light rain, then raise them again when you want an open feel. They add comfort and usability to your outdoor area in any season.

Seamless Design

Sleek frames and powder-coated finishes mean the shades blend easily with pergolas, verandas, and alfresco areas. When rolled up, they tuck away neatly to maintain a clean look.

Built to handle New Zealand’s conditions, our roller shades combine durability with design flexibility. Using premium mesh fabrics, they can block harsh sunlight, reduce glare, and add privacy while still allowing airflow or outward views. This makes them an ideal choice for creating outdoor areas that feel comfortable and usable throughout the year.

Every shade is crafted with high-quality aluminium and stainless-steel componentry, ensuring long-lasting performance even in coastal environments. The fabric options come in a wide range of colours and openness levels, so you can match your shade to the look and function of your space. Mesh filters light and allows ventilation, and the polyester and PVC materials provides stronger weather protection and a long-lasting product.

Alongside their practical performance, roller shades also offer a clean, modern finish that integrates seamlessly with pergolas, verandas, and alfresco areas. They roll away neatly when not in use, keeping your outdoor space open and uncluttered, while still being ready to provide protection and comfort from overhead sun whenever you need it.

Atmosphere Mesh is available in 20 unique colours, these systems come with 5% or 1% openness or 0% openess options to provide light control and privacy.

Everything you need to know about the Roller Shades

What are roller shades best used for?

Roller shades are ideal for providing shade, reducing glare, and adding privacy under pergolas, verandas, and alfresco areas. They help make outdoor spaces more comfortable and usable throughout the year.

Are roller shades waterproof?

Roller shades are designed primarily for sun and wind protection. Mesh fabrics allow airflow and filter light, while PVC fabrics offer more weather resistance. They can handle light showers, but they are not a complete waterproof solution.

Can roller shades withstand coastal conditions?

Yes. All components are made from aluminium and stainless steel, making them highly resistant to corrosion and suitable for New Zealand’s coastal environments.

What fabric options are available?

You can choose from mesh fabrics in different openness levels (1% or 5%) to control light and privacy. These come in a wide range of colours.

Can roller shades be motorised?

Yes. Roller shades can be operated manually with a crank handle or upgraded to motorised operation for smooth, effortless control.

How large can roller shades be made?

Roller shades can be custom-made up to 6 metres wide with a maximum drop of 3.8 metres

What warranties are provided?

Our roller shades come with a two-year system warranty and a five-year fabric warranty, giving you confidence in both the materials and the build quality.

What kind of maintenance do roller shades require?

Maintenance is minimal. Fabrics can be cleaned with mild soapy water and rinsed, while the framework should be washed down occasionally, especially in coastal areas, to remove salt and grime.
