How to choose: fabric, wind, and view
- View vs shelter: Clear PVC keeps the view and blocks rain. Mesh reduces glare and heat, adds privacy, and lets air through.
- Wind: For exposed sites, specify side-channels or guided drops. Add bottom seals and adequate fixing into brick or steel.
- Open-ness: Mesh at 5–10–15% balances privacy with view. Lower openness = more privacy and wind reduction.
- Operation: Crank, spring-assist, or motorised. We recommend Somfy motors for heavy spans and daily use.

Outdoor Blinds FAQ
Which is better: clear PVC or mesh?
Clear PVC blocks rain and wind with full visibility, ideal for winter patios. Mesh lowers glare and heat, keeps air flowing, and adds daytime privacy.
What about wind?
For exposed areas, specify side-channels or guided drops with proper fixing into brick or steel. This reduces rattle and improves wind resistance.
Can I motorise them?
Yes. We recommend Somfy for large spans and frequent use. Add wind and sun sensors for protection and convenience.
Do you install nationally?
We install across the Garden Route and supply nationwide with free delivery. Remote measuring support is available.
