Awning Lock

Hidden z-LOCK™.

Breakthrough z-LOCK™ technology provides a unique fabric guide, fastening and securing the welded zip and fabric concealed within the side channels, creating a strong, smooth, and streamlined system.

 

The hidden z-LOCK™ function ensures there is no gap between the fabric screen and side channels, providing secure, guided movement that won’t blow out in the wind. A total seal provided by z-LOCK™ technology and bottom sealing strip aids in creating a relaxing environment with increased insect protection.

 

One Action Ultra-Lock + Tension.

Invisibly integrated, Ultra-Lock’s patented technology seamlessly reinforces your Zipscreen, for reduced movement and an ultra-smooth fabric finish.

 

Our Ultra-Lock system perfectly secures Zipscreens automatically, without an external lock or latch, and utilises an in-built, self-correcting system to ensure they evenly click in place. Ultra-durable. Ultra-reliable. Ultra-Lock.

 
Zipscreen Awnings

Easy to Use Latch-Lock.

Latch-Lock utilises a spring pin system. When the Awning is pulled down it will automatically clip into the latch and lock off. To unlock the Awning, each pin can be released and the Awning can be raised.

FAQs.

What Are Zipscreen Awnings and How Do They Work?

Zipscreen Awnings are a type of Outdoor Blind that uses a zip-like system to lock the fabric into side channels and create a sealed barrier against the sun, wind, rain, and insects.

 

What’s the Difference Between a Zipscreen Outdoor Blind and a Traditional Outdoor Blind?

Zipscreen Blinds have a zip-lock technology that secures the fabric within side channels. Traditional Outdoor Blinds are often open-sided and rely on ropes or pulleys. This makes them less effective against the elements and prone to flapping.

Zipscreen Blinds in Australia can last for many years in many different weather conditions. Their lifespan is extended if they are made from high quality materials, properly installed, and undergo regular maintenance, such as cleaning the tracks.
