Retractable pergola awnings
Motorised pergola awnings have gained popularity among Australian homeowners. They offer flexibility and freedom for your outdoor space. Motorised awnings can be defined as on-demand opaque screens that perfectly satisfy the need for shade and protection. In comparison to traditional outdoor structures, retractable pergola systems allow to easily cover and uncover the specified area.
InDesign crafts retractable awnings with high-quality aluminum profiles and stainless steel, enhancing the durability and rigidity of the entire construction. The retractable systems feature a motor drive, ensuring easy operation and making them an ideal solution for protection against wind, rain, and sun. Top-quality materials are used for the canopy covers, allowing smooth sliding on durable trolleys. Pergola awnings can also incorporate LED lights, providing additional comfort during cloudy weather or in the evening. In exceptional cases, the pergola system can integrate special accessories like sun and wind sensors.
Retractable pergola systems have lots of benefits among which are:
PROTECTION
Australian weather is unpredictable. You never know whether you will need to hide from the scorching sun or from the heavy rain. The ultraviolet rays that are emitted by the sun can harm your furniture by making it dull and faded. Moreover, if you stay under the open sun for a long time, your skin will become red and you may even get a sunburn. Rain on the other hand can ruin your outdoor barbeque party or make it impossible for you to take some fresh air in the evening. Once you install the awning, you will not depend on weather anymore.
ENERGY SAVINGS
Pergola awnings offer an excellent means to obtain additional shade. They not only shield you from the sun during outdoor activities but also contribute to reducing energy bills, especially when the awning’s canopy is attached to your home over the windows. Depending on the type of fabrics which you choose, you can reduce the amount of heat and UV rays up 70%.
VIEW
Permanent awnings cannot be moved or detached. This creates lots of inconveniences, one of which is the inability to have a good view from your windows and constant darkness inside your house. If you like to admire picturesque sceneries and landscapes, then motorised retractable awning systems will be your best solution. InDesign outdoor constructions offer flexibility and efficiency by allowing to expand the canopy in excessively bright and sunny days and retract it during sunless periods to allow maximum light get into the house.
SERVICE LIFE
Standard non-retractable pergolas and other outdoor structures are always exposed to heavy winds and pouring rains. Strong storms can tear the canopy or even distort the metal construction. This is not the case with motorised outdoor systems which can be retracted in times of harsh weather. This feature allows to prolong the service life of the construction and avoid unnecessary expenses for repairs and maintenance.
STYLE AND SOPHISTICATION
Quite frequently, people who want to create beautiful porches or patios, realize that they need to spend huge amounts of money to make their dreams come true. They need to design the whole construction from scratch and maintain it in order to keep it functional for a long time. Retractable awnings can alone make your pergola look stylish and attractive for a relatively low price. InDesign retractable awnings are made-to-measure and can be customised to satisfy your preferences and wishes. We offer a broad range of materials of different colours, textures and styles to best suit your needs.
